Anyone else a fan?
They need to get Wieland back, but have liked most of their music.
If you're not a fan or just a casual observer, you'll probably remember them best by this one:

Huge fan. I saw them 2 or 3 years ago and they sounded so good I was convinced they were using backing tracks for the first 30 minutes.

I saw them back in the 1990's, and was also impressed at their live sound.

You probably got the better version. Weiland was a little impaired when I saw him. Still sounded great though.
I've seen him with Velvet Revolver a few times too. Always sounded good.

Well, they did sound really good, but make no mistake...Weiland was still
impaired. ha ha
Really liked Velvet Revolver too.

That crossed my mind as I was typing my post. :teehee:
Great band. I really enjoyed them in their heyday. The unplugged version of Plush is outstanding too.

One of my karaoke staples!
STP's first album is a must have for anyone who is into 90's style rock/grunge/alt metal. Definitely one of my favorite albums. Very Alice in Chains-esque feel to it.
Cool thing about STP is they have a demo out from their early days when they were called Might Joe Young and if you listen to the tape, they have some really interesting sounding stuff. Some lyrics they use in the demo are used in completely different songs. Plus this song here is one of my favorite songs by STP/Mighty joe young, whatever you wanna call them. Great sounding song.

STP definitely changed a ton from each album, but I did enjoy their first 3 for the most part, after that, only a few songs per album I could really enjoy.
Quote:Nice one! I almost forgot about that. They played that live when I saw them back in the 90's.
Awesome.
I really missed out on all the good live acts of the 90's, being born in 1990.
