  In January 1999, Stone Temple Pilots performed live at the House of Blues in Las Vegas for the "MTV Spankin’ Live" series, which showcased the band at a tumultuous point in their career. This performance occurred shortly after the release of their fourth studio album, "No. 4," in 1999. The album featured a more experimental sound compared to their earlier work and received mixed reviews, yet it still managed to reach commercial success. This period was particularly challenging for the band, as frontman Scott Weiland was grappling with personal issues, including legal troubles that later culminated in his incarceration later that year. The concert not only highlights the band's dynamic live presence but also serves as a snapshot of the struggles they faced at the time, making it an important performance in their history.

  In late 1999, Stone Temple Pilots performed "Vasoline" on the Howard Stern Show, a notable moment that highlighted their continued prominence in the rock scene following the success of their second album, "Purple," released in 1994. At this time, the band was touring to promote their third studio album, "Tiny Music... Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop," which came out in March 1996. The performance showcased not only the group's energetic sound but also the charismatic presence of frontman Scott Weiland, who wore a gas mask and rubber gloves, adding a memorable visual flair to the live rendition. This era marked a high point for Stone Temple Pilots, as they were navigating both commercial success and personal challenges, further solidifying their status within the '90s rock legacy.
