September 14th Stone Temple Pilots show Cancelled
Lizi Hagan
TONIGHT’S STONE TEMPLE PILOTS SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED:
STONE TEMPLE PILOTS were forced to postpone the last four shows of their
summer tour after lead singer Scott Weiland was diagnosed with
"inflamed vocal cords."
The band was scheduled to perform last night
(Tuesday, September 13) at the Taft Theater in Cincinnati, Ohio and tonight
(Wednesday, September 14) at Iroquois Amphitheater in Louisville, Kentucky. But
per Weiland's physician's
diagnosis, Scott was
put on immediate vocal rest.
Dr. Sid
Khosla, director of the UC Health Voice Center in Cincinnati, said,
"Today myself, Dr. Eva Van
Leer and ENT Dr. Keith
Casper consulted with Mr.
Weiland. Upon a video stroboscopy, we determined his left vocal cord has
likely scarring and his right vocal cord is tremendously inflamed. With such a heavy
concert schedule and vocal activity, we determined that Mr. Weiland could potentially run
the risk of a vocal hemorrhage or suffer permanent damage, hence putting him on
complete vocal rest."
STP apologizes to their fans and refunds will be
issued at point of purchase
