Both of their shows at the Palms this summer were awesome, and this show should be even BETTER!

They were two of the BEST concerts I have ever seen! I WILL see you there! We can meet up for drinks before this time instead of lurking around the machines now that we know how they are with lining up.

I'll actually be in Vegas that weekend, but with a ton of friends and family for an early birthday celebration.  I don't wanna see STP if Weiland's performing as he has been lately.

But maybe I'll bump into one of the guys ;-)

Well, if the show tonight is anywhere as good as I have seen in the past, you'll miss out!! Seems like the NYE show was awesome, so I'm sure that this show will be also.

I have seen stp plays 28 times, and this was the best they have ever sounded. I could not believe this was the same scott weiland I saw play t the kroq acoustic christmas. His voice was amazing, and the boys were as tight as ever.They opened with silvergun superman, which is a killer opening song. the set list was mostly the same as the tour, and they did an awesome version of too cool queenie. They also did quite a few jams in between songs, which was great (i dont remeber what they were though, sorry) They all seemed to be really having a great time with eachother, and scott made some funny quotes about dean being a guitar hero. Dean introduced the band about half-way into the show, and he said it was the first time he has ever done that. At the end of the show robert said this was the last show they would be playing for "quite some time", and introduced the whole crew. How long "quite some time" means, only they do. It was good not to see scott hanging out at the bar is the palms like I saw him during the last vegas stop, he had no rambling rants like in the past. Overall an amazing show, I hope somone got video of it for all stp fans to see. If anyone got audio or video, please upload it.

setlist that I could remember- (not in order)
Silvergun
Wicked Garden
Big empty
sex type thing
interstate
plush
sour girl
lady picture show (introduced as "maybe our best, maybe our worst")
creep
vasoline
crackerman
dead and bloated
sin
loungefly
big bang baby  (best version i've heard since '96)
down
too cool queenie

it's nice to see that they mixed the set up a little bit during the last few shows... even though the fanclub offer the 'pick the set' option, the set list was the same throughout the summer tour... $50 membership fee was pretty steep too... i truly wish that I could have seen this one... probably the last before the next album... that is if they can get the contract issues worked out with Atlantic.

regards,

aH.
