CrushOfVeils80 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 STP was one of my fav bands in High School so Im excited to see them but I hear their live shows are hit or miss, who has seen them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MrRain422 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I saw them twice back in 2000 and 2001. Not sure about the reunion shows, but back then they were pretty awesome. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lammycat Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Caught the MPs a year and a half ago and, even without D. Bostrom on drums, sounded a lot like the old days. I'd certainly go just to see them open. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
aricandover Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I saw STP at the Rolling Rock Town Fair (2001 I think), they were pretty good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MrRain422 Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I saw STP at the Rolling Rock Town Fair (2001 I think), they were pretty good. Yeah, that was the 2001 show I saw. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PopTodd Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I saw Meat Puppets back in 1987.Amazing show.Then I saw them in 1989.Not as amazing. I would love to see them again, though.One of my favorite bands.And, just hope that they play "Six-Gallon Pie", at least if you're a fan of jaw-dropping guitar stuff.

TemplePilot Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I've seen them a few times on this reunion tour, here is a review from me during summer (with pics, got to meet DeLeo too) http://forums.viachicago.org/index.php?sho...e+temple+pilots They're great. I'm obviously biased, but they really don't get their due. Their last two albums were stellar (especially the fifth which no one bought). I think Weiland is a power house of a frontman. Should be noted that the drummer's Dad passed away, so Ray Luzier (Korn, Army of Anyone, David Lee Roth) has been filling in at the end of the tour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CrushOfVeils80 Posted October 29, 2008 Author Share Posted October 29, 2008 awesome show, regular drummer was there tonight, he just missed 2-3 shows I heard, lots of energy, Id love to see another album Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jff Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 STP had Meat Puppets with them when I saw them in the '90s. That's cool that they're playing together again. At the time I wasn't a fan of either band, I was just tagging along with some friends (and because I knew Meat Puppets was a band I should like based on them having been on SST Records). I don't remember the concert much, but I remember being impressed that STP played an excellent version of David Bowie's "Andy Warhol". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mjpuczko Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 i used to love STP. their first 3 records are fantastic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
embiggen Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I saw STP - I can't remember what year it was, I think late 90's. anyways, Cheap Trick opened for them. Cheap Trick put on such an awesome show, I didn't care about STP anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
