2013-08-06 - Sturgis - Full Throttle Saloon
« on: August 07, 2013, 08:19:07 PM »
I didn't see this show listed here. Does anybody know how this went? I'm curious to see how Weiland went over at a biker bar, at a biker event.

I haven't seen anything at all about this show. The current lack of interest in Scott Weiland is staggering.

Is the lack of interest in Scott Weiland really because of his antics? I know you didn't suggest that, but many people say it all the time. Yes, he shows up late and drunk, however, I think the lack of interest has more to do with the seven year hiatus and the lack of any hit songs on 12BB and HIG. When one thinks about it, the fact that she can still sell anywhere from 500-2000 seats a night is quite amazing. I mean STP has not been relevant to the general public for over ten years. In addition, his solo work never attracted many people. Essentially I think the only reason he can still draw a crowd is because of Core and Purple. Even if he kept clean I don't see him being much more relevant than he currently is. Sure, STP would still be together but even with a sober Scott Weiland I don't see them filling more than theaters at this stage in their career.

Can't find anything regarding how the show was, but I found a picture of Scott with a guy, and apparently they just had had a beer together. I'm pretty sure it's from the SD show.

Also, there was a guy on Twitter who complained that the show was boring. He seemed to base that solely on the fact that Plush wasn't played. So I'm discounting that guy's opinion.
Who will be my judge and which one do I trust?

Funny to see him dressed a bit like a biker.  But I'm amazed at the lack of interest/information on this tour

Regarding lack of interest: I mean, it seems like he just toured half of these locations or places close to them. I saw him twice on this tour, and I'd see him again, but I'm a pretty diehard fan. For the public, if they already paid money to see him within the past couple of months, I doubt they are willing to do it again so soon. I think he's milking this tour and should get back in the studio and/or play shows with varied sets like last year.
