STP Reunites For First Time In Almost Eight Years, 65 City Tour


New York -- One of this summer’s most highly-anticipated music announcements has arrived. Stone Temple Pilots have officially revealed that the band will be reuniting and will launch a massive 2008 concert tour encompassing over 65 dates and hitting all corners of North America. Marking the first national tour for Stone Temple Pilots in almost eight years, the 65 date stretch will bring the iconic band’s charismatic musicianship and exhilarating live shows to amphitheatres across North America. The tour is scheduled to kick off May 17th with the band headlining the Rock on the Range Festival in Columbus, OH and will continue through November 2008.



Stone Temple Pilots will celebrate the announcement of their reunion tour with an exclusive launch event, sponsored by Spin Magazine and Citi’s Private Pass Program to benefit the VH1 Save The Music Foundation, that will include a private performance for a select group of contest winners and fans at a secret location in California's Hollywood Hills. The full list of 2008 tour dates will be announced at the event.



A select # of tickets for the April 7th event will be available for purchase by going to www. vh1savethemusic. com, with all proceeds from the sale going to the charity.
In addition, beginning, April 3rd, Citi’s Private Pass Program, available at www. privatepass. citi. com, will be offering a limited number of Gold and Platinum VIP packages to this exclusive, private event including tickets, exclusive merchandise and meet and greet experiences. Following the launch event, the reunited outfit will make their first national LIVE appearance on the The Late Show With Jimmy Kimmel on May 1st.

    $45 for the STP fanclub?!? boy, given scotts history that sounds like a reliable investment... :rolleyes: definitely makes me think this is more than a simple 1 time tour tho... there will be new albums which i cant wait for!

    really makes me appreciate how affordable PJ keeps things too!! :D

    If Weiland bails on his old band mere months after bailing on his new band, methinks he can kiss a lot of his fans goodbye.
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    Smart idea...book 65 shows for a guy who is known to have problems completing much shorter tours!

    i hope it goes well, and comes close to me. this is one of the few bands i have loved from the start, but have never been able to see them.
    Peace, Love.

    I wonder how many of those "65 shows" will actually be played.

    I give them 13 shows, Douche-sack Weiland pisses everyone off again and they call it quits.

    Not "officially" announced. More or less just blogs and other sites, although very well could be accurate.

    I doubt they'll be there, but I'm still gonna hold a little hope.

    that was just speculation from the chicago suntimes... the official announcement is on monday... probably will be those 3 bands tho... hopefully blind melon, presidents of the USA, STP, and/or alice in chains as well!!...

    also wouldve been cool to have REM there since theyre touring for their new album... but that wont happen at this point...

    I hope they can pull it off and get back to making a new album, but I have no faith in Weiland. The guy is a waste.
