Warning to bands, if you give a sub par performance or appear �out of it� during a concert then your fans may sue to get their money back. That�s a lesson Creed is learning at the moment as four fans have reportedly filed suit against group asking to be reimbursed for tickets and parking following a controversial show last December in Chicago where Creed frontman was allegedly "so intoxicated and/or medicated that he was unable to sing the lyrics of a single Creed song."

Shortly after news of the disastrous gig hit the press Creed�s management issued an apology but that�s not enough for these four fans who reportedly filed suit in Cook County Circuit Court this week. They hope that others will join in the suit and a class action can be brought against the band. Estimates put the total tab at $2 million if a refund is given to every person who attended the show. 

The plaintiffs also name Ticketmaster and the group�s management company in the suit, stating that they, along with the other members of the group, knew the condition that Stapp was in prior to the concert and still let the show go on. 

The plaintiffs have reportedly not asked to be compensated for pain and suffering, apparently because they willingly sat through a Creed concert. 

The Creed camp has not yet publicly responded to these developments.
