Re: STP to perform at River Riot in Council Bluffs IA

Yeah... unfortunately I'm going to skip St. Paul and just hit this show now.  But man... that lineup is horrible.  Weezer is awful.  Kind of disgusts me that STP would be playing before Weezer, but I guess I'll beat the traffic.  Is that the total list of bands?  It'll be cool to chkout Something to Burn though

Geez man - I am getting too old for all-day festivals!

Here's a brief review.

Something to Burn from Softdrive Records kicked much ass - the did a cover of "Baba O'Riley" - I will upload on monday.

Flobots were actually damn good - got a poster signed by the band.

Weezer was fantastic, a good portion of the crowd seemed to be there for them.  They played all their hits and a MUSE/GAGA cover.

STP came on around 10pm.  I started near the rail by Bob - but had to bail to the soundboard after the toothless rednecks began moshing/surfing.

All the tunes sounded awesome - Crackerman as the opener again as it should be.

Few rarities - actually only "Jean Genie" and "H&H".

Best song of the night was probably CRUMBLE.

See my FB for the full list.

Chicago next Friday!

You are just everywhere VC!!!!!!!! Glad to hear the crumble report. Still sad that that song might never make it to the radio. It's just as or more kickass than BTL. It's a pounding rock song with a smokin lead and thats what people want especially in NorthAmerica's economic state for blue collar workers especially. We need music to get our aggression out.

Flobots' guitarist after the show:

Sometimes I can't believe how lucky I am to get to do what I do. Music is my homeboy, thanks for hooking me up with STP concert backstage!

Yeah my life does not suck. Stone temple pilots guitar solos should be illegal! Can't believe this is how I get to end a great tour.

Josh Freese (drummer: APC) on last night: "Jumped up and played a song w/STP tonight. I love the Deleo brothers and Eric Kretz."
