I agree with Nightstorm (screen name used to keep the Scott/Scott confusion
to a minimum) that the Chicago concert scenario is absolutely the business of
anyone who paid for a ticket to see it. But as for Stappy's
life being MY business or not-----I MAKE it my
business. I also have my own life (and a very busy and full one at
that), but Creed, and especially Scott Stapp, is a small, but important, part
of my life. He is my passion and I DO
and WILL CONTINUE to delve into and research any and all
information pertaining to him that I can find-----personal, professional or
otherwise. I don't tell others how to approach their hobbies or
interests and I don't intend to allow anyone to dictate to me how to follow
mine. As for speculation about true motivations, skeletons in the
closet or behind-the-scenes ANYTHING------everyone is going to speculate,
at least somewhat, in their own mind anyway, when they hear news, even if they
do not discuss it with others nor deeply concern themselves with it. I
just happen to be intrigued by Scott Stapp, the person, his life and his
history and I immerse my (very minimal, albeit) free time in learning what I
can about "what makes him tick." No, you won't be reading about me being
arrested for violating a restraining order-----I confine my interest to
harmless, non-stalking tactics----but I do not see me ending my quest any time
in the near future, either.
I would not trade my Creed concert experiences for anything and I would
have GLADLY paid whatever the cost to have attended the Chicago concert
myself, had I known it was going to be something different. I love Scott
and I pray for his well-being continuously-----but every human being has
issues and difficulties in life and Scott is certainly no exception.
Those very things and how he deals with them are a part of what makes him
who he is and, IMHO, a significant part of what makes him as special as
he is. I have never claimed that he is anywhere NEAR perfect, as I know
that is an impossibility. But he seems, TO ME, to have such a good
heart. We have a lot of similarities in our pasts and I can relate to
and admire his lyrics so tremendously. His voice is wonderful,
IMO. The fact that he is SO EASY on the eyes is only icing on the
cake. For some, it IS all about the music---but not for me.
