================================================ Subject: Re: Let's Move On From: "Lee Reed" To: Date: Fri 20 Jul 2001 02:16:38 -0400 ================================================ very interesting points raised, as usual, kerri...i myself came to creed post-brian, so i am supporting his new band based solely on his talent, as heard on the creed albums...however, if they are crap, they're crap, and i won't continue to support them...but you raise very valid points, in that there has been no public brouhaha (IE lawsuits) regarding his departure...i personally hope that his band does well, and i eagerly await a promo cd, clips, whatever, to promote grand luxx...and wish them all very well...i think that we can all support brian and remain creed fans, i don't think that we will need to become competetive re them...
