Stone Temple Pilots with Chester Benningt WITH JAY LENO

[Unglued812]

Well, our dear band known for playing tv shows with each album, even more than only once for each, are now going to play on Leno without even having an album.

With a new singer.

Are you serious? The EP comes out in under a week and is already streaming.

Yeah kinda gotta agree here with hahninator. Your post made no sense. An EP might not be a full length album; but it's still a physical release, which is what the band is there to promote.

Yeah, they gotta promote it even if its not a full lenght album. It just made me scratch my head a little that they are making a tv show without an album release.

Song rocks in a live setting.
That chorus doesn't seem like the easiest thing to sing.

Chester sounded awful, which is odd because he's sounded good for the most part so far.

Sounded pretty good. Band was tight. Chester had issues here and there, but nothing major and it is very difficult for rock singers especially to just come in cold and do one song at 5 in the afternoon.


The performance was about on par with performances with Scott on late night TV.

[The Legacy]

i dont have tv, is it online yet? not seeing it on youtube yet

[megafonemaniac]

would have liked to have seen chester be a bit more animated, but overall pretty good performance. vocals sounded a bit drowned out. rest of the band sounded tight.
on a side note, eric's drums didn't display the usual "stp" logo. instead it had a tartan plaid circle design. wonder if it was due to the ongoing legal issues.

Yup. 

I'm sure someone can post a ton of links to Scott being pitchy on late-night shows. 

[DeadAndNotForSale]

Very difficult song to sing and I already had a feeling as the opening riff began that Chester was not going to sound as close to the record as I'd like.  I also didn't like that Rob's mic was drowned out to the point that I couldn't hear him but I still enjoyed the overall performance.  That was a very difficult song to perform cold, indeed.

FYI, this is a 90s-era singer sounding awful on late night TV http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzAUfGRUafg

But he got sober, stopped smoking, and sounds great nowadays.

Chester sounded perfect on Letterman (2009) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=es2LiGuzeP8

[DankoJones]

Leno show always has the worst sound of any of the talk shows, i thought it was pretty good though, still weird not seeing Scott fronting it.

Forgot Scott did Kimmel .. i remembet sering Audioslsve on letterman, Chris was horrid, sounds much better now, theres hope for Scott
