I was at that show

It was amazing

I was obsessed with that band and the “4” album just came out. When Scott said “this song is named after another one of your fellow southern cities”

I was screaming Atlanta

No one else knew that song

I know CSB

I grew up listening to STP on the radio and loved all of those songs but never had any of the full albums. Started listening through them recently and didn't realize there were so many great tracks that didn't really get radio play.

Scott was a really cool frontman. I liked his range of emotions and styles, from hard rock to lounge singer to what sounds like a misplaced hippie from the 60s. Sucks that we lost another great talent when he died.

It’s still amazing to me how much hate they got when “Core” came out. They were called flash in the pan Pearl Jam knock-offs by many.


They sorta did sound like Pearl Jam at first, esp the vocals. But yeah I ended up liking STP more overall.

Saw STP and Velvet Revolver and Weiland was one of the best front men in the business

This and unglued.


Saw STP at a casino in the desert outside of San Diego in 2009. Crowd was lame as hell but Scott still brought that shite. Their performance at voodoo in the early 2000s was fantastic.

Drug my wife to the hard rock Biloxi show kicking and screaming! She didn't realize how many songs she knew and how dynamic scott was. We still talk about how great it was and how she was hypnotized by his slithering around the stage, AWESOME SHOW!
