    Did I ever say that they still won't be a great band? I just said that using the original name feels wrong. Anyone remember Talk Show?

    And AC/DC pulled it off because they weren't that big in the states yet. Most fans had never heard of Bon Scott. Van Halen fans were mixed. Personally, I never liked Roth, so I prefer the Hagar stuff. Hell, I prefer the Cherone stuff over Roth.
    I'm not supportive of STP using the name STP without Scott whatsoever. I do have to say though, Talk Show is one of my favorite albums ever even though I am a die-hard Weiland supporter. It is not an STP album though, and neither is High Rise (though I have tons of respect for Chester).

    The comments about keeping Scott's memory alive by continuing on as STP, you do know that the lawsuit over the name was settled long before his death, right? So even if he was still alive, STP would be going on with a different singer, using the STP name. But stating that apparently makes me a fanboy purist, so I'll just shut up.
