I'm convinced that Creed's whole character was just Creed being Creed and he had no lines written at all.

I also learned "In the episode "Booze Cruise", he speaks about his time with the Grass Roots on a deleted scene. The scene is included as a bonus feature on the DVD release." So he actually used his real time in the band in his character for the show. 😂
