What would you rate the concert out of 10? I wish I could have seen Weiland live.

State Palace used to host some big acts. STP was up there with the best. Weiland's in my top 5 frontmen for sure. I guess after Tool and Pantera that was my 3rd favorite show there.

I saw them with Weiland (2011?) at the Hard Rock in Biloxi, and it was a 10/10. And I wasn’t a real fan of them going in. I’m a metal guy - Pantera, Metallica, Megadeth, etc. and ‘80s hair metal. Never bought an alternative album in my life. Ignored that whole era of music other than what was on the radio.
Hadn’t been to any good concerts in a while and STP was coming to the Hard Rock - I was just looking for something to do. It’s one of my favorite venues because it is small enough to have a “club” feel but has a big enough stage and PA system to feel like a real concert. I googled STP to see if they had enough songs I knew to make it worth my time. Realized I was familiar with a bunch of their songs but just didn’t know the names of them if you asked me. Also Weiland was back with the group and I loved him with Velvet Revolver. Talked the wife into going.
It ended up being one of my all time favorite concerts - and I’ve been to a LOT of concerts. The place was as packed as I’ve ever seen it. The crowd was singing along with all of the big songs. If you’ve ever been to Hard Rock, the floor has a bit of bounce to it when a large crowd gets into it. The place was literally rocking that night. I’ve been to few concerts that could match the crowd energy that night. It was a surreal experience for a guy who wasn’t a fan of the band going in. When I got home that night I bought their greatest hits cd on Amazon. Been a fan ever since.
