Stone Temple Pilots tour postponed

The Stone Temple Pilots tour has been postponed until mid-October.

Stone Temple Pilots announced the tour postponement after Sunday night's concert in Houston, which started an hour late and featured erratic behavior from Scott Weiland. The band did not give a reason, but the El Paso Times said low ticket sales may have been behind Stone Temple Pilots postponing their tour. Others have speculated it's because of another Scott Weiland relapse, which bassist Robert DeLeo discussed in May.

The Stone Temple Pilots tour postponement will end with a show in Florida, but the band has not yet said which one: Oct. 9 in Orlando, Oct.12 in Hollywood, Oct. 13 in Estero or Oct. 16 in Pensacola.

Watch this video of Scott Weiland's admittedly drunken rant during Sunday's concert in Houston -- the last show before the Stone Temple Pilots tour was postponed:
