Scott Weiland is the enigmatic front man of not only the Stone Temple Pilots but also was fronting the band Velvet Revolver for a couple of albums before returning to touring and recording with STP. I loved those first two STP releases and that makes it a very exciting thing to know that Scott will be doing a “Greatest Hits” show at the Highline Ballroom on Monday 11/26. Thanks to the fine folks who book this awesome venue, we are going to put a few PiercingMetal readers into show for free. Pretty cool eh?

Here’s a nice batch of music that Scott Weiland was a part of. If you don’t have these in your collection yet, you might as well start now.
“Dead And Bloated” as it was the song that introduced me to the band…and then “The Big Empty” from The Crow soundtrack (originally) since it showed a different side of the band, and might be their best song ever
Congratulations Marc, as you and a guest will be rocking out with Scott Weiland on Monday. Stay tuned for details. “The Big Empty” was also my very favorite tune from the band.
