RIP Scott Weiland - Found dead on tour bus
« on: December 03, 2015, 09:40:58 PM »
Rock star Scott Weiland was found dead on his tour bus in Minnesota ... TMZ has learned.
Weiland was on tour with his band Scott Weiland & the Wildabouts ... they were supposed to play the Medina Ballroom tonight, but the show was cancelled.

A source connected to the band tells us Scott was found Thursday night on the bus around 9 PM -- presumably, shortly before the band was to go on.  

The former lead singer for Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver famously battled substance abuse for years. It's unclear right now what caused his death.'

Scott was 48.

Such an waste of a life of a talented man. His demons won unfortunately.

RIP to my favorite vocalist ever.

I listen to STP almost every day, my stomach feels in knots already as I digest this news. Career wise, sadly, we was really past his prime, I opted not to see his show last summer here, heard it sucked but regret not going for to have lived the nostalgia of having gone, been there...

I've been worried for a while something like this would happen as I'm guessing he still consumed hard drugs and often.

His past fame kept him alive, not sure how much longer he could have kept a fan base to live off what he did. Either way, I'll still listen to my huge playlist of fav's from his bands until I kick the bucket.

RIP Scott Weiland

Was just a matter of time before his demons took over.

Never was a huge fan, but when he fronted Velvet Revolver, there were a lot of tracks I enjoyed.

He will be missed.

I wonder if it was an acute overdose...or was it heart damage from chronic coke/speed abuse...and he died of cardiac myopathy in his sleep?

Chester Bennington just left STP last month and with Weiland back on board, STP was poised to make a HUGE reunion tour that would rake in the bucks. But Weiland couldn't handle the pressure so he took the coward's way out. Still better to burn out than fade away.
