Stone Temple Posers

Wow, what a show last Saturday night, SMELLS LIKE GRUNGE! was insane! Grunge fans from Manchester and beyond did not disappoint; much appreciation to all that ventured out of the comfort of their AC to hang out at the Jewel Music Venue Manchester NH with us and three other uber-talented bands: Rotten Apple (AIC tribute), Priceless Advice (Nirvana tribute), and Yellow LedVedder (Pearl Jam tribute). During the show, we found out some awesome news: we will be playing at the Jewel on November 8 as part of the world premiere of a documentary on Scott Weiland produced by a local film-maker (we are stoked); more details later. Our next show is our debut at the Portland House of Music on August 24, where we will be acoustically opening for an unplugged Yellow Ledvedder.

In the 90s, four iconic voices (Layne, Kurt, Scott, and Eddie) ripped it up with their bands AIC, Nirvana, STP, and Pearl Jam, and they called it GRUNGE.  On July 20th, as part of SMELLS LIKE GRUNGE! and only at the Jewel Music Venue Manchester NH, the Stone Temple Posers will be joined by three other tributes to these legendary bands fronted by some locally iconic and uber-talented frontmen.  SMELLS LIKE GRUNGE! will feature the following tribute bands: Rotten Apple, Priceless Advice, and Yellow LedVedder, along with the Stone Temple Posers.  If you like grunge, you will not want to miss this show.  Get tickets early and save money.

The Stone Temple Posers kicked off the 2019 Plaistow Town Common music series acoustically last Wednesday evening (6/26/19) with a night full of STP hits under sunny skies. It was cool and humbling to receive such a warm response from all those that came out to spend the evening with us, both young and old. We especially loved seeing all the families enjoying themselves on such a great summertime evening out. Thanks to Randy for running sound. If you saw us for the first time last night, we hope you enjoyed the unplugged grunge diversion. If, however, you crave a more raucous STP experience, you’ll have to look for us at SMELLS LIKE GRUNGE! on July 20 at the Jewel Music Venue in Manchester NH, where we will be joined, fully amped, by three other great tribute bands including Yellow Ledvedder, Priceless Advice, and Rotten Apple.  In the mean time: Happy July Fourth!

The Stone Temple Posers have released the dates to their Dancing Days Summer Tour including: June 26 at the Plaistow NH Town Common, July 20 at SMELLS LIKE GRUNGE! at the Jewel Music Venue (Manchester, NH), August 24 at the Portland House of Music (Portland, ME), and September 14 at LITS BLITZ at the Lithuanian Beach Club (Gardner, MA).  Hope to see you this summah!

The Stone Temple Posers want to give a big shoutout to all the wonderful folks that came out to The Looney Bin Bar & Grill this past Saturday night to hang out and party with us for Grunge Tribute Nite.  The weather couldn’t have been more perfect for the start of bike week! Thanks to Rotten Apple (Alice in Chains Tribute) for getting the evening started with some killer AIC.  Thanks to Len of Hart Promotions for sound, lights, and special effects.  Special thanks to the management at the Looney Bin for taking the chance with two new tribute bands during bike week.  Our next show will be Wednesday June 26 at the Plaistow town common.  We will be playing unplugged from 6-8.  Bring your lawn chair and kick back for some G-rated STP. All ages.

Had a great time at Gusto's Bar in Barre Vermont this past Friday night. Mighty cool venue with a cozy stage, tasty pub food, ample craft beers, plenty of games (pool, ping pong, jenga, corn hole, and more), and great hospitality. Thanks to all the STP fans that came out to support local live music, thanks to Gordon and Dennis for sound and lights, and thanks to GigginVT Productions and Gusto's for making our Vermont debut a blast! Hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. Our sights are now set on June 8th for our next show at the The Looney Bin Bar & Grill in Laconia, NH; come kick off bike week with us and Rotten Apple - New England's Ultimate Alice in Chains Tribute Band.

Last Saturday night we played nearly a 2-hr set after Papa Ballz (Papa Roach tribute) and a surprise appearance of Limp Ballz (Limp Bizkit tribute) rocked the Crows Nest Pub and Grill in their NH debut. We are blessed and thankful to all of the friends, family, and fans of 90s rock that hung out with us, even though the Bruins suffered a double OT playoff loss (Ugh). Thanks to the Crows Nest for making this show possible and James for mixing sound. Our next show is on May 24 at Gusto's Bar in Barre Vermont; this will be our VT debut!

The Stone Temple Posers have started their three-state spring tour covering Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont!  This past weekend we rocked Mixers Nightclub and Lounge in Sabattus, Maine.  Thanks go out to all the friends, family, and fans of grunge that came out to party with us at Mixers. Thanks to Bob for having us, and to Priceless Advice (Nirvana tribute) and Just Paranoid (Green Day tribute) for joining us, and Rick for mixing sound. Photos (courtesy of Ram Sports Entertainment Photography), audio and video will be loaded to our webpage soon.  Next Saturday we will be at the Crows Nest Pub and Grill in Plaistow, New Hampshire with Papa Ballz (papa roach tribute).  On May 24th we will be at Gustos in Barre Vermont.

Last Saturday night at the Davignon Snow Shoe Club Inc in Manchester we got to play 42 STP songs (plus 2 Velvet Revolver songs and one STP cover of a Zep song) in one night! Thanks to the friends, family, and crowd of STP fans for hanging out, and the Davignon for having us. Thanks to Randy and Marlene for sound. Our next show is at Mixers Nightclub & Lounge in Sabattus Maine on April 20 with Just Paranoid - Green Day Tribute Band and Priceless Advice (Nirvana tribute).

The Stone Temple Posers want to thank Ashley and Chris for having us as guests on Appetite for Discussion last night (3/11), allowing us to play a few STP songs, and talk about our band, music, food, and politics. For those that missed it, the whole show will be on Hulkshare soon, and we’ll load up some audio on our webpage too.  We will be at the Davignon Club on March 30 later this month.
