Stone Temple Pilots plotting extensive tour
By Mitchell Peters
Tue Apr 1, 5:45 AM ET
The recently reunited Stone Temple Pilots will next week announce plans for a summer tour of more than 50 amphitheaters,
sources said.
The L.A. rock group has already confirmed a handful of festival dates, beginning with the Rock on the Range festival in
Columbus, Ohio, on May 17-18.
Further details about STP's tour will be announced during an April 7 news conference at the Harry Houdini Estate in Los
Angeles. It is still unclear whether the band will record new material.
Rock on the Range will be Stone Temple Pilots' first show since 2002, when it played 13 concerts to promote its final album,
2001's "Shangri-La Dee Da."
Singer Scott Weiland went on to co-found Velvet Revolver, which is about to conclude a European tour in support of its second
album. But he and drummer Matt Sorum are engaged in a public feud, casting doubt on the outfit's future.

I don't know if anything else has happened after that or not.

I love Stone Temple Pilots. I saw them open for Aerosmith several years ago. I also saw Velvet Revolver and Army of Anyone. All were great shows, and I will drive to the nearst city to Nashville that they play (no more amphitheater in Nashville, cause some douche wanted to level it and build some more condos to sit and rot).

I just read on VR's site that Weiland and VR are officially done:

Velvet Revolver To Part Ways With Singer
Velvet Revolver founding members Slash, Duff McKagan, Matt Sorum and Dave Kushner announced today that they are parting ways with singer Scott Weiland. "This band is all about its fans and its music and Scott Weiland isn't 100% committed to either, said Slash. "Among other things, his increasingly erratic on-stage behavior and personal problems have forced us to move on."

I just passed on free tickets to see them this last weekend. I love STP and think they are an awesome band, but they aren't the same guys they used to be. If this was ten years ago I would have gave my right nut to see them, but now..eh..screw them. They will go on tour, probably make an album, break up and then Scott will shoot up. It's not worth it to be a fan of theirs anymore.

Saw them on Saturday, awesome show (although they took the stage about 30-40 minutes late)... great setlist too. Just a rocking, kick ass show...and Weiland didn't disappoint in the weird department either, spouting off some nonsense lines in between songs etc.
