Mark Tremonti addresses all the craziness...
Alter Bridge guitarist Mark Tremonti spoke with Music Radar about the possibility of his former band Creed reuniting next year if Alter Bridge singer Myles Kennedy goes on tour with the instrumental members of Led Zeppelin, as has been heavily rumored.
First, regarding Kennedy's chances, Tremonti said, "We all have to be real hush-hush about it. We hear the rumors; we know what everybody's saying; but as far as what's really happening... I don't really know. Nobody does. The only thing I can say is that, no matter what happens next year, it'll be for the ultimate benefit of Alter Bridge. Alter Bridge is our number one priority. Nothing has changed that in anybody's mind."
As for a Creed reunion possibly going forward if Kennedy hits the road with Led Zeppelin, Tremonti said, "Who knows what can happen next year? 2009 could be one of the craziest years ever for us. Again, all I can say is that Alter Bridge is still very much a band and we have every intention of carrying on."
Alter Bridge plans to tour through the holidays and begin writing early next year for a follow-up to last year's Blackbird... unless Led Zeppelin and Creed get in the way.
