I had NO idea Mark Tremonti could do this

Whether people have been into Creed, Alter Bridge or Tremonti or not, the guy is a very dedicated and solid musician. My son loves this album. He did a Christmas album as well and routinely plays shows with Sinatras old band to raise money for down syndrome. It's hard not to like the guy.
 
Hell yeah. When I listened to Alterbridge cd Pawns & Kings I was pleasantly surprised when my favorite song Stay has Mark on lead vocal.

 
A grower or sleeper from Tremonti cd Marching In Time. I love the chorus especially in this. This stuff is like nectar from the God's for me.

Not Afraid To Lose

 
Umm.. he’s responsible for the greatest vocal overdilub of the 90’s…
The My Own Prison song..
“And I say OHHHHhhh000ooo…”
THAT’s him👍.
Florida boy.
Worked at Chili’s Vsr & Grill and traded his spatula for a PRS Signature guitar AND amp.
No more fryer grease on the fretboard👌.
He used to hang at the Hardback in
G-Ville..grimy watering hole.
He and the national Diva lead singer are a great match.

The drummers awesome, especially on the smash single “One”.
Killer sauce in the pocket-the sauce never goes back in the packet..because it becomes groove.
Word up on the f’n level man.

“Ode” is a bad ass song and a glowing example of the “ Creed muscle”
Creed muscle?
Listen to the choruses in their songs,
Especially Ode, the production is near cassette quality yet the chorus blows the song the fuck way up out of the scrappy production💯.
The water finds the way.
That’s freaking super bad ass and EXTREMELY RARE to be able to do, especially with so many songs that people relate to.

I do always feel in my heart of authenticity that
when I vibe with a Creed song..I feel like a jit.

Never in my life did I think I'd see the word "jit" used on rig-talk
 
He’s a classic case of a musician I respect and like what I’ve seen of how he is but don’t like any of his music or his tone 😂

Did you know he has a PRS ? No really he does.

Wow! I didn't know anything about Marc Tremonti except for his PRS model. Respect! He's not merely "aping" Sinatra: his love for Sinatra is evident! Now I'm intrigued: I need to find out more about Marc Tremonti. True talent. Sinatra, Chet (Baker), Tony (Benett) and Marc Tremonti! This has made my day!!
 
He's a guy who has gained respect wholly through hard work, determination honing his chops. When I kept seeing is name pop up over the years as a solid guitarist, I always wrote it off as "that guy from Creed? You can't be serious!". But he kept plugging away with Alter Bridge and other projects and has built a solid catalog of material. Now he's going to cash in with a Creed reunion, which is fine by me. He's earned it.

He's also one of the nicest, most level-headed guys around. To put up with Stapp all of those years, and then when he finally makes it on his own with Alter Bridge, he has to share his lead singer with Slash - nothing but pure class.
 
Oh boy, that rare time for different hobbies to cross over.

Want another interesting fact about Mark? He is very passionate about pinball. Yes pinball. In fact he has done voicework in at least one game and done custom music for a few games. I am in circles close enough with Mark that when a tour of his rolls through town they call up my friends to bring a pinball up to the venue for him to enjoy.
