Stone Temple Pilots Confirm Full ‘Core’ Performance Livestream

Stone Temple Pilots will perform their 1992 album Core in its entirety during an upcoming livestream event. The virtual concert will go down on Friday, July 31 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT through nugs.tv.

STP will also release two live shows via nugs.net. The first comes from August 3, 2011 at Hampton Beach Ballroom in Hampton Beach, New Hampshire with founding frontman, Scott Weiland, who died in 2015. The second is a more recent show from June 13, 2019 at London’s O2 Forum Kentish Town with lead vocalist Jeff Gutt.

“The show at O2 Forum was my first time being in London,” Gutt remembers. “In fact, I had never been to Europe, so I was just trying to take in all the history and city vibes. STP hadn’t been there in quite a while, so I remember the crowd being especially electric. There’s something about when the lights go out and everyone knows that the show is about to begin, that really takes us all to a magical place together.”

STP’s debut album, Core launched the band — Weiland, guitarist Dan DeLeo, bassist Robert DeLeo and drummer Eric Kretz — into stardom with help from singles “Sex Type Thing,” “Wicked Garden” and “Plush.” The latter would also earn the band a Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance.
