Setlist + Video: Creed Unplug for Benefit Acoustic Performance

The good vibes from Creed‘s reunion continued Thursday night (May 2) with the band playing an acoustic performance in Orlando, Florida to benefit the National Down Syndrome Society. The group performed a seven-song set fill with some of their biggest hits, stripping down the material for the audience.

Singer Scott Stapp, bassist Brian Marshall and guitarist Mark Tremonti were all seated on stools, with drummer Scott Phillips to the side behind his drumkit. The performance started with the familiar opener “Are You Ready,” then dove into such classics as “My Own Prison,” “Rain,” “With Arms Wide Open” and “Higher,” before finishing up with “One Last Breath” and “My Sacrifice.”

Mark Tremonti has maintained a close relationship with the National Down Syndrome Society, making them the beneficiary of the sales from his Take a Chance for Charity Frank Sinatra and holiday covers albums. The guitarist’s daughter Stella has Down Syndrome and the organization has been of assistance to Tremonti and his family.

The acoustic performance also drew some name fans, as members of Tonic dropped by to lend their support while opening the show. Tonic recently joined Creed on their “Summer of ’99” Cruise.

The acoustic performance was part of a bigger weekend of activities, with Tremonti also hosting the Tremonti Family Golf Outing in Orlando. The charity golf started yesterday (May 2) and continues today (May 3) at the ChampionsGate Golf Club.

Having just completed the second of their “Summer of ’99” cruises, Creed will take their reunion on the road throughout the remainder of the year. Tickets for all shows are available now.
