Who are the guys referring to in their song "So Long (My Friend)" off of the Supernatural album?

I found this guys post on SongMeanings.net and I agree with what he thinks....

"Many people claim this song is about a particular artist or group in the christian music industry (such as Jars of Clay, Amy Grant, or perhaps even Creed) that have "sold out". As interesting and controversial as that would be, the truth is (as been stated by the band themselves in many interviews) that this is a ficticious story about a ficticious group or artist. It's just supposed to address the fact that there are those out there that may or may not have "sold out" or are thinking about doing it. DC Talk is just trying to give everyone a heads up and tell them to remember that they are all under watchful eyes and their decisions can have far reaching effects. The song itself is pretty self-explanitory. I think this is a really funny, sarcastic, daring, and gut-checking song. IF YOU EVER READ THIS TOBY, MIKE, OR KEVIN, you all should take more chances like this and do more songs like this! It a breath of fresh air!"
