The reformed Stone Temple Pilots performed together for the first time since splitting in 2002 at illusionist Harry Houdini's spooky Los Angeles mansion on Monday.

The rockers, fronted by former Velvet Revolver star Scott Weiland, played a short set at the Hollywood Hills location, where the band once shot their unreleased video for "Creep," to announce their summer reunion tour.

Industry insiders and lucky fans were treated to renditions of STP classics like "Big Empty," "Interstate Love Song" and "Vasoline."

The group will head out on a large-scale, 65-date North American tour, beginning with an appearance at the Rock On The Range festival in Ohio on May 17.

The reunited rockers have also launched a new website and fan club.

Weiland was kicked out of Velvet Revolver at the end of last month after a series of hostilities with his bandmates.

The supergroup, featuring former Guns N' Roses bandmates Slash and Duff McKagan, plans to continue with a currently unnamed new singer.

In a RollingStone.com online poll over the weekend, fans voted former Soundgarden and Audioslave frontman Chris Cornell the favorite to take over from Weiland.
