The place for music makers
Alter Bridge axeman calls possibility "exciting"

So even if Myles does tour with Zeppelin, he's going to stay in Alter Bridge?
"Oh, absolutely. Without question."
The Zeppelin tour would be just a one-off for him? Would he make an album with them? Apparently, they're writing material...
"Oh, who knows? We don't know any details. But I have to say...there wouldn't be a better guy in the world to play that role than Myles. I think it'd be very exciting."
That's very diplomatic of you. Not everybody has Led Zeppelin trying to poach their singer.
[laughs] "I guess. No, look, we all support Myles 100 percent. He's one of the most talented, hardest-working musicians I've ever met. So if the Zeppelin thing happens, hey, he deserves it."
And you'd get to stand on the side of the stage every night and watch Jimmy Page.
"Absolutely, man! [laughs] I hope so."
You and I spoke a few years ago about the possibility of a Creed reunion with Scott Stapp and you said that it would take "millions and millions of dollars for that to happen" - and even then you'd probably still say no.
[laughs] "Yeah, I remember that."
Given the set of circumstances that could go down next year, is the chance of a Creed reunion still nil?
"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."
I'd love to see Kennedy teaming up with Led Zeppelin - the guy has a fantastic voice and is a great musician. Glad it won't mean his departure from Alter Bridge, too. No Creed reunions though, please - Alter Bridge is a thousand times better!
It's very disappointing that he would even entertain the idea of a Creed reunion- I thought he had more integrity than that.
