Sad, knew all about his demons. One of my favorite front men/singers in Rock!

RIP Dude
From Wiki -In 1995, Weiland was caught and convicted of buying crack cocaine. He was sentenced to one year's probation. His drug use did not end after his sentence, but increased, and he moved into a hotel room for two months, next door to Courtney Love, where she said he "shot drugs the whole time" with her.

I hate that kunt....hope shes next

I saw a 'Plush' vid once where it was a live indoor venue...he came down off the stage and was singing 'conversations kill' either in the front row or just in front of it...The intensity was crazy...sure he just main lined some shit.Went through 25 pages on utube looking for it no luck...

Man....man....man....sad ...real sad. Loved his music. Buddy of mine took him fishing one time. Supposedly Scott really enjoyed fishing and was a cool down to earth person. But yeah, even on that day Scott was anebriated by dope. I will ask my friend the story again and post the whole occurrance.

RIP

Saw the STP reunion tour like 5 years ago or so. Scott looked BAD. I mean like might not even make it through the show bad.
It's surprising he lived this long.
RIP

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.
Story developing ...

shocking, he just performed at penn's peak on nov 27 2015...

So drkaje was the last known person seen with Scott?

Man, a bummer for sure. Saw STP many times in the 90's. Unlike other bands of the era they never made a shit album. Everything they put out was fucking great....sad day but probably long past due.

RIP SCOTT!

How many of you Getbiggers have had friends or family members pass away as a result of drug abuse or somehow drug related?

I've had at least three that I am aware of and one of those deaths was a result of a suicide after an unsuccessful 2 year attempt to overcome the effects of prescription drugs after a serious spinal operation.

I tried to help but failed on numerous occasions.

That story is an interesting one in the event that anyone wants to hear it.

The other two, I'd rather not talk about except to state one claimed to be ready to jump off her balcony and commit suicide.

When I got there I discovered that she lived on the first floor of a high rise apartment which had less than a one foot drop.

She was under the care of a psychiatric 'hospice' for a couple of years ..... got cleaned up and now has a high paying job for a federal agency.

I guess I just never got them. I liked Purple, but every album seemed to be catering to whatever sound they figured was popular. Never felt they had their own motif/sound. $:-\$

fucking sucks.

I love stp, but let's be honest, dude has been playing chicken with dead for years.

RIP - Great Frontman, one of the all-time great frontmen. Interesting to see what legacy he and his music will leave.

Died doing what he loved...

Yeah...Sitting on a tour bus is a very popular pastime. One many of us lesser individuals aspire to on a minute by minute basis. In truth, dope is for dopes.

Sorry to see him go, but he punched his own clock on this one.

Dammit.

I clicked on the vid of him signing "Big Empty" with his other band. I never thought I'd see him perform that horrible.

Anxious to know the official cause of death.

Is it me or was he starting to look a lot like the late night talk show "Conan"

Yes, the great mystery. Anxious to learn Farook's motive as well?

LOL!
What I meant is the cocktail of meds/drugs me must have been on. If it gets released.
