BALTIMORE -- Former Creed singer Scott Stapp and members of the band 311 spent their Thanksgiving fighting in a Baltimore hotel.

Chad Sexton, drummer for 311, said they ran into Stapp earlier last Thursday without incident at the Harbor Court hotel.

Sexton said he and bandmates S.A. Martinez and P-Nut were watching basketball in the hotel bar when Stapp returned later. Sexton said Stapp stepped in front of the screen and said, "311, I am ready to fight."

Sexton said they tried to defuse the situation and Stapp went to the bar. He said Stapp later made inappropriate comments to Martinez's wife and suddenly hit Sexton in the face.

Sexton said a fight broke out. Martinez broke a finger and security guards had to break up the brawl. Police were called, but no arrests were made.

Jonathan Jordan, director of hotel security, said the incident was captured on security cameras and that Stapp was attacked by the members of 311. In his words, "It was definitely started by 311."

Stapp's representatives would not comment on the incident.

Stapp's as much of a jerkwad as russell Crowe...
