Stone Temple Pilots are keeping the classics close on their 2026 run.
Stone Temple Pilots aren’t exactly in the business of making you wait around for the good stuff.
The band’s 2026 sets have been leaning hard into the records that made them massive in the first place, with Core and Purple doing plenty of the heavy lifting.
That means ‘Vasoline’, ‘Plush’, ‘Big Empty’ and ‘Interstate Love Song’ are all right where you want them, alongside heavier cuts like ‘Down’, ‘Crackerman’ and ‘Dead & Bloated’.
It’s a pretty satisfying way to build a set, especially for a band with this much history to pull from. There are a few deeper cuts floating around from show to show, but for the most part, Stone Temple Pilots seem perfectly happy giving people what they came for.
If you’re catching them on tour this year, here is the setlist they are currently tearing through.
Stone Temple Pilots 2026 setlist
- Wicked Garden
- Vasoline
- Big Bang Baby
- Down
- Unglued
- Silvergun Superman
- Big Empty
- Plush
- Interstate Love Song
- Meatplow
- Crackerman
- Dead & Bloated
Encore
- Trippin’ on a Hole in a Paper Heart
- Piece of Pie
- Sex Type Thing
The Rockin’ The Island set pulled six songs apiece from Core and Purple, two from Tiny Music… Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop and ‘Down’ from No. 4.
In other words, this isn’t a set designed to make you patiently wait 70 minutes for the song you came for.
