Accoutic Covers

Hey guys,

What do you guys think about acoustic covers? Sometimes the acoustic version sounds better than the original version be it by the same band or a different one. Here are some YOUTUBE videos on covers. Tell me what you guys think!

• New Morning Acoustic - Alpha Rev
• Toto Africa Acoustic Cover - Howie Day
• Oasis Dont Look Back in Anger Acoustic Cover - Maroon 5

Also post any good acoustic covers :) Cheers!

Creed reunion - the end of Alter Bridge?

Creed reunited in April 2009 to record their 5th album "Full Circle". Although many were delighted to hear of the reunion, I was disappointed. I think Alter Bridge is a much better band than creed in many ways. Scott Stapp is a very talented vocalist and has a unique voice, but I think he cannot be compared to Myles Kennedy whom I think is "miles" ahead of Stapp as a singer. Mark Tremonti and Scott Philips, and even Brian Marshel the bassist, was much tighter with Alter Bridge than when they played for Creed.

Tremonti says that the reunion of Creed would not be the end for Alter Bridge, and that they would continue working with Myles. Do you guys think that the reformation of Creed is worth enough to see the end of Alter Bridge? Who do think is better?
