posted in: Music NewsRock

Though the online debate over the true frontman wages on, the members of Stone Temple Pilots who are not Scott Weiland will be headed out on tour later this year with Linkin Park‘s Chester Bennington on vocals.

The first official announcement to surface from STP since the May news that Bennington was working with the group, news that a tour will soon kickoff is further proof the band has cemented its new lineup.
