STP postpone tour

According to the band’s Facebook page,  Stone Temple Pilots have been forced to postpone their remaining dates. Like a school kid... who wants to avoid detention, the band has a note from a physician, Dr. Sid Khosla, Director of the UC Health Voice in Cincinnatti, where the band canceled their show on Wednesday night. He writes:

Today myself, Dr. Eva Van Leer and Dr, Keith Casper consulted with Mr. Weiland. Upon a video stroboscopy we determined his left vocal chord has likely scarring and his right vocal chord 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 hemmorage or suffer permanent damage hence putting him on complete vocal rest.”
