Scott Stapp made a surprise appearance at the Delray Beach Christmas Tree lighting festivities on Thursday, December 1st, where he performed a rocking version of White Christmas for the thousands who attended.
The video is not very clear, but we’d recognize Scott’s awesome signature voice anywhere.
Scott did a short interview with Suzanne Boyd of CBS 12 News before his performance, and posted a link on Twitter to download.
Scott was the guest today, 11/8/11, on the Boomer & Carton show, to continue spreading the word about the special upcoming Creed shows.
There is plenty of media from Scott’s appearance…
Audio of the entire interview can be heard here
Video of a portion of the interview can be seen here
Article about Scott’s appearance from CBS New York
B&C Morning Show: Creed’s Scott Stapp Provides An Emotional Lift
With the idea of breaking-up all of the hard-core sports talk that occurs regularly here on the Morning Extravaganza, Al Dukes booked a special-guest that he felt would be an inspiration to both Boomer & Craig and he decided to surprise them with the special-guest just after 8 a.m.
The guys were thrilled to welcome in Scott Stapp, who is the lead singer for the band Creed – who after breaking-up in 2004, got back together in 2009 and are recording a new album, as well as planning a tour.
Boomer & Craig both have drawn inspiration from Creed’s 1999 hit ‘Higher’ – which is the final song played during the Dynamic radio duos emotional spin class.
The guys asked Stapp about Creed’s break-up and subsequent reunion and Boomer praised the singer/song writer for his ‘golden pipes’.
Craig attempted to get Stapp to flex said ‘golden pipes’ – which he eventually did, albeit for just a brief moment.
I think it’s safe to say Boomer & Craig were both moved by Stapp’s visit and praised Al for booking the spot…

At the same time, Billboard.com announced the news in this exclusive article.
Creed will pay homage to its debut album with a series of special shows in April — and throw in its follow-up for good measure.
The group will celebrate the 15th anniversary of its six-times-platinum “My Own Prison” by performing six shows in three cities — April 13-14 at the Chicago Theatre, April 16-17 at Philadelphia’s Tower Theatre and April 19-20 at the Beacon Theatre in New York. The first night in each town will feature “My Own Prison” in its entirety along with selections from Creed’s other three albums, while the second show will showcase 1999′s 11-times platinum “Human Clay” from front-to-back, along with additional songs.
“We’re doing this for our fans,” Creed frontman Scott Stapp tells Billboard.com. “They’ve talked so much on Twitter and Facebook, ‘Play more songs… off the ‘My Own Prison’ album and off the ‘Human Clay’ album’ — and the same with the (2001) ‘Weathered’ album and even on to (2009′s) ‘Full Circle.’ The band got together, and management, and we were sitting around chatting one day; I don’t remember who came up with the concept, but we just totally fell in love with the idea — going to small venues, playing the albums top to bottom. I think it’s a great way for the band to reconnect to our roots and with each other and with our fans in a very intimate way that they’ve asked for.” Continue reading
