Does anybody really care enough to justify all this nonsense? I think all parties involved are vastly overestimating how much the music consuming public cares about a washed up rock band from the 90's.

[Dev]

I just learned about all this and am not exactly sure what to say.

I feel a bit burned.

The band name has some weight to it, from a booking perspective. As little as people care about Stone Temple Pilots these days, even less people will care about The Deleo Brothers Band.

yeah, but with Bennington on board they had the chance to make a new and successful band without having to use the STP moniker.
The should have take their time and make another record with Scott.

Take A Load Off/Maver/Between the Lines/Samba Nova/ First Kiss on MArs (not classic STP but one of my favourite vocals and a few others off STP were so golden for me as a long time fan it was an emotional experience to hear it. Shangrilladeeda was the pits lyrically but had great music. Four is a little dry but Pruno/Glide/Atlanta/Church on Tuesday were great. Backing up, Shang. has one song I really like - Bi Polar Bear.

As for the early stuff, No Memory and some of Purple hold up but its fairly dated to my ears. Vatican Gift shop is one of the single greatest albums of my generation in my opinion, only Lady Picture is a duffer.

Vatican Gift Shop was a favourite of mine alsmost as soon as it came out. I even 'stole' the copy from the radio station I worked at to dub it to cassette.

Apparently there's a new single out? No one is paying attention I guess.

Someone posted a YouTube link to the new song a few months ago and that was the last I heard of it. I'm not opposed to bands switching singers sometimes it works but I'm not sure if the new guy can really add anything musically. He does a good impression.

i read somewhere that its actually in the number 1 spot in some rock charts. Mind your manners seems to be the in the second spot.

Yeah, Grunge Report is where I saw it.

My friend went to the show he did on Long Island here sunday night, got free tickets from a record store. He said scott showed up late, babbled incoherently, forgot half the lyrics and said something about this being the best band he ever played with. He also took some more shots at the deleos, he didn;t have much else, he said the show was so bad people started leaving halfway through the show.

[VinylGuy]

yeah, he seems to be pretty fucked these days; still his shows got some good reviews too.

[E.H. Ruddock]

I'm heading to the Scott Weiland concert now.

come back with a review please!

i heard it a couple times. it sounds like chester bennington trying to write and sing like weiland. its not bad musically, but listening to it i just cant help but think "scott weiland should be singing this".

[E.H. Ruddock]

Left early. I've been to hundreds of concerts and I can say that was the worst one ever. And I saw Vanilla Ice. He sounds like absolute shit. He came out and said "I guess you want to hear some hits". They proceeded to play all the shitty songs and then when he butchered Mountain Song we left.
