Red Mosquito

This has become one of my favorite STP songs over the years, and this performance is fucking awesome.

That’s the tour I saw them on. Cheap Trick opened.

Man, sounds awesome. I saw STP in 2008, 2010 and 2011.
Amazing shows really.

I saw them in 2000 and 2010...massive Tiny Music fan so i am very down for this reissue.

is it just me or do parts of lady picture show have a bowie feel?

All of Tiny Music has that feel. I recently returned to this record, my favorite by them. And so I know might one of the most beautiful songs they ever recorded with Scott. It's still amazing to think they cut Atlanta as the last song from this record.

Atlanta was from Tiny Music?

somehow I’d just never noticed it before

What’s the harm in making an album like 16 songs if you have recorded 16 good songs?

Atlanta was recorded for Tiny Music???

Tiny Music (along with Purple) are my 1A/1B top albums from the band...none of the other albums are even close. Atlanta is by far my favorite post Tiny Music song from the band.

They opened a lot of the summer 2002 shows with Shine On You Crazy Diamond 1-5. It was a perfect opener for them

They released a demo of Atlanta to go along with the Tiny deluxe:

That was a great tour, probably the last great one they did.

I just came back to post this again.

is STP the ultimate grunge bro band?

yeah, could be. Soundgarden was kinda like that back in the day too, specially for its metal roots. AIC too.

I wouldn’t think that. Trippin on a hole isn’t very grungy to me.

Listening to Purple, thinking about the summer of ’94, swimming at my cousin’s house. his cuz—no relation to me—and her bf were there too—they were several years older. We were listening to Purple on the patio, and the bf was making fun of it because the first song is Meatplow, and he was riffing on that for like 5-10 minutes, just roasting us (maybe just me) for liking it.

Fuck him. He was probably a poison and Bon Jovi fan anyway

I’ve since texted my cuz, and he says the bf was being facetious.

If memory serves, the bf liked doors, led zep, most 70s rock.

I laughed at his jokes about stp. I mean—in my mind—he just didn’t get it. How do you not like a song called meatplow?

He liked 70s rock and Zep but not STP? Bizarre
