Refugee 7 Report post Posted May 6, 2008 Stone Temple Pilots have made some additions and changes to their North American reunion tour ahead of its May 17 launch. The band will start with a headlining performance at the Rock on the Range Festival in Columbus, OH, and then make its way through a variety of venues and festivals across the US and Canada through fall. Dates currently stretch through STP's October appearance at the New Orleans Voodoo Music Festival, though the outing is expected to expand into November, according to the group's website. Since last check, second nights have been added in Detroit and Las Vegas, and shows have been booked in Wallingford, CT; San Antonio, TX; Woodlands, TX; Elizabeth, IN; and Montreal. An updated itinerary is listed below. Stone Temple Pilots announced their reunion tour in Los Angeles last month, when they performed publicly for the first time in nearly six years. After forming the band in 1992, the grunge-rockers--frontman Scott Weiland, guitarist Dean DeLeo, bassist Robert DeLeo and drummer Eric Kretz--recorded five studio albums and went on to sell more than 35 million copies worldwide, according to a press release. They parted ways after completing a tour behind 2001's "Shangri-La Dee Da," which is their most recent studio album. Weiland went on to join Velvet Revolver, which parted ways with the singer last month amid a volley of acrimonious press releases. The DeLeo brothers co-founded rock quartet Army of Anyone with Filter frontman Richard Patrick and former David Lee Roth Band drummer Ray Luzier, but that band slipped into hibernation following its 2006 self-titled debut. Robert DeLeo recently told Billboard that STP will probably record a new album once the tour wraps.

Echosoftom 3 Report post Posted May 6, 2008 STP is one of the bands on my "to see" list. CA Mid-State Fair sure gets a lot of great acts every year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
