Also, cut the crap and start giving us content we never get. The closest thing was that Rockline audio when I believe we all died laughing with tears in our eyes, cause the band was in rare form.

STP's management, as always should be ashamed of themselves, that is unless STP isn't paying them that much to begin with.

The Internet is their friend. Just because you reach a certain age doesn't mean you should shy away from it. One of the best drummers to ever live, and the bassist of a god band have embraced the Internet. It is time for STP to cut the crap and stop acting like they have no idea what the Internet is, and let their assistants take care of it. Do it, and do it creatively. I am tired of this BS.

It's like an updated version/continuation of their 90's site, I love it!

I thought the same thing. The media section reminded me of the pre-NÂș4 STP site.

Absolutely 100% agree. You could see that when Scott was doing his solo stuff Doug and the others at Softdrive were really embracing the internet stuff. It was nice to have a video/vlog every week or so that kept the fans in the loop. With STP, I don't know, I don't think they have anyone there (or want anyone there) following them around and making videos of them. And unless someone in the band (or close to it) takes the initiative, I don't think it will ever happen. They seem like they're very private people and don't really want the hassle or to deal with that part of it. All the bands who are successful in the internet and fan club stuff seem to be bands that have band members that are actively involved in not only the music making but also that aspect of it. STP is mostly a music-making band. They would have fit right into the 60s. You didn't have to deal with all these other things back then. I bet they would love if they could stop touring and just live in the studio like the Beatles did for their last few albums.

The new website is a nice change, but it's kind of clunky and doesn't look that appealing. They really need to hire someone that can develop a site with a lot of functionality AND is visually appealing.
