As much as I prefer the original Stone Temple Pilots (instead of this), the band has put up with Scott's shit for two decades-plus... A line has to be drawn somewhere. Props to the band for wanting to move forward, with or without him. Scott acts like he's the sole-owner of STP and he was responsible for their success. Well, the band did their part in building STP, right along with Weiland... Whether he wants to admit it or not.

Having said that, this is only 'one song' they recorded with Chester, it remains to be seen if the band decides to stick with him (even though the press photos are all over the site). There's no OFFICIAL confirmation the Chester's their frontman. Chester himself stated (on Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChesterBe/status/335998445691219968), he'll never leave LP. Dean DeLeo even said: "We know Linkin Park will always be his priority, but we thought it would be cool to try something together..." So, it remains to be seen if the band decides to stick with him and record an entire album, later down the road. It'll be an interesting couple of weeks or months... That's for sure.

Besides tonight's concert (at BFD 2013). Stone Temple Pilots are performing on 5.30.13 at Club Nokia, in LA... Scott Weiland has a show at the House of Blues on 5.29.13 in West Hollywood with a day off, the next night. Scott, go check out the STP show! See what you've been missing, wake the fuck up. Please.
