CREED - TREMONTI DISMISSES CREED REUNION

TREMONTI DISMISSES CREED REUNION

Rocker MARK TREMONTI has ruled out a CREED reunion, because he "just can't trust" the band's former singer SCOTT STAPP. Guitarist Tremonti and his Creed bandmates bassist Brian Marshall and drummer Scott Phillips left the Christian rock band in 2004 to form Alter Bridge. And Tremonti is determined to keep troubled Stapp, who has had numerous run-ins with the law in recent years, out of his life. He says, "I've got some text messages (from Stapp) here and there wishing us well and stuff. "But I've seen it all before. I've seen him reach out and try to be a nice guy, then the next month he's saying he was Creed and we were just a bunch of idiots along for the ride. "I just can't trust the guy. And I'm old enough and wise enough now to keep people out of my life that make it worse than it needs to be."
