Left off musically. I want them to pick up there and give us No 6.
It will be more successful than VR. Album sales don't really mean shit anymore cuz downloading has increased tenfold since CB was released.
In my opinion, STP can still realize their high point. If they hadn't have broken up, the next album would have been their best. I don't know if they can do that again though, it's been a few years and who knows if they can do it again. In my opinion, SLDD was also their best and strongest album.
And no STP aren't in VH's class. STP are underrated as far as the band, music and musicians in it.
My biggest reservation is Scott. AoA proved that Robert and Dean still have it in them, but Scott hasn't shown us anything spectacular with VR. My theory with that is that the chemistry wasn't there.
Scott had a quote about talk show, that "it's 3/4 the way to greatness". I think this applies here too. If Eric, Dean, Robert and Scott get back together, i can only hope that chemistry gets back and Scott proves that he still has it. I can only hope...

It's funny how you act like it's a given. Talk about putting the chicken before the egg. My guess would be that STP could release 5 more albums and they wouldn't sell as much as Contraband did combined. If this STP thing getting back together was such a huge deal, they'd be touring alone, not as part of a festival lineup. And I don't think Matt Sorum will ever have problems finding new gigs. The guy is a monster drummer. But hey, don't let reality get in the way of your VR hating.
Oh, okay.
First of all, record sales don't mean shit anymore. Second, VR was crafted to be a record selling machine, they died out quickly of course. I wouldn't want STP to just go out and sell a couple million records. I want them to pick up where they left off.
Well once you decide to take a look at STP's past, you will realize that the 4 of those guys had more chemistry and talent than VR did. You remove one piece of the puzzle and it's never the same, such can be proved with VR.
Eric Kretz has more talent than Matt Sorum period.
STP hadn't hit their hight point yet- THAT is fact. SLDD has just the tip of the iceberg of what was to come. All In the Suit That You Wear was just the tip of the iceberg. Had they made that album, it would have been a monster.
You seem to miss that GNR did festivals and MTV to get themselves back in the spotlight...

'I'd like to see Stone Temple Pilots get back together,' Intercontinental Champion Jeff Hardy told WWE.com. 'I heard a rumor that they might.'
STP, fronted by Scott Weiland (now lead singer of Velvet Revolver, which provided the theme for the 2007 Diva Search), earned its alternative rock rep on such hits as 'Vasoline,' 'Wicked Garden' and 'Creep,' before disbanding in the mid-1990s. But news that the group might be touring this summer, according to Billboard.com, is especially pleasing to Hardy's ears. 'I hope that's true,' he said.
