I was mainly frustrated that Scott kept saying they were almost done with the album when they weren't. He also said they were going to go home to finish the album and then they did another tour. I'd just like to have heard a little more communication, not an update every 5 minutes, I understand wanting to build some mystique. With TCV total secrecy worked because they were a brand new supergroup so there was legit intrigue and mystery behind it. Also that post had some anger in it, but I stand by the fact that their website sucks and that Scott's Twitter isn't as popular as it could be haha. I'm HAPPY about this interview and thrilled to hear new album details.
LOL. I would think you would have learned by now not to take anything Scott says as fact, before hearing it from a manager or another member of whatever band he is currently in. Scotts a hell of a musician, but his mouth gets ahead of the rest of him with stunning frequency. He talks a lot, mostly in ideas, not so much in facts. Look at the past. Its been like this since the beginning. If you recall sometime ago you went off Scotts "word" and said the album should be out by Christmas. And if you also recall I told you then that there was no way and it wouldnt be out before spring, likely summer.
With Scott, Brett, you are best to just take any happenings as possibilities and checking in. He's never going to be as involved or update-friendly as the other more clued-in musicians. The Eddie Vedders and the Billy Corgans of the world. Never take anything he says as concrete. Yes, STPs website sucks, yes, Scotts Twitter sucks, yes, Deleo bros and DG do way more for Scott that he does for himself. This isnt new, Brett. Sure Scott's one of my favorite musicians too, but you gotta be realistic with him. This is the way things have been since '92.
In short- Of all the things STP is one thing is for sure: They've NEVER been punctual. Never expect anything from them. Just hope for the best.
