Shaking my head. Saw his name pop up on the Trending tab on Twitter and already knew exactly what was it was going to be. Dude never, ever seemed to be able to shake his demons.

What a bummer :-\

[HitandRun Reggie]

You knew Scott Weiland wasn't going to live till a ripe old age, I'm surprised he lived this long. His music was horrible but it's still sad to see him fade to dark.

[JohnFreeman]

Shit band, heroin addict. Who cares

[Lakers Legend#32]

My favorite band of the 90's.

[dazzer87]

RIP funny man.......

[Dbrog]

awwwwww ****. RIP to one of the greats. I can't exactly say I'm surprised though...kept going down the wrong paths. Velvet Revolver was underrated

[Nick Young]

is he the dude in Velvet Revolver? RIP

[BurningHammer]

It is already amazing that Weiland lived this long.

RIP

[Styles p]

Damn r.i.p. I got a picture of a photograph

RIP

[JohnnySic]

RIP.

Stone Temple Pilots - the grandaddy of all radio friendly rock bands.

The very first piece of music I ever purchased with my own money was Core by Stone Temple Pilots on cassette (along with A Pocketful of Kryptonite by The Spin Doctors).

A few years later, I bought my first four CDs: Metallica's Black Album, GNR's Appetite for Destruction...and both Core and Purple by Stone Temple Pilots.

Those are the first two records I learned to play front to back on the drums. Great groove to those records.

Sad thing is...saw this death coming from miles away. Sucks when people never find peace in life as a result of chemical slavery and poor choices. RIP Scott.

[rufuspaul]

He lived about 15 years longer than I expected.

STP was a formative band for me as a kid too. I was just coming to that age where cool mattered when the grunge scene hit, and in the beginning they were cool, until the backstories about record company assembly came out, but by that point they were already cool to me. And frankly those first couple albums were damn good regardless. I also enjoyed Velvet Revolver for it's sort of retro 80s rock feel. It came along when rock was really dieing, and it didn't feel as morbid as most of the scene at the time. Although the catalog was thin. I saw VR in concert once in a small venue. And I saw STP a couple times. All were good experiences to one degree or another.


But absolutely this can't be a surprise to anyone.

[stalkerforlife]

Phucking legendary performer. So free on stage. So uncaring of what is cool.

RIP Scott Weiland

This is the truth. One of the reasons I liked the guy so much, even when I wasn't fond of the work, was because he was a genuine, bonafied, real life rockstar frontman. And during that era, those guys weren't always easy to find. They were fighting depression, or ticketmaster, or MTV, or whatever. Scott Weiland was running around on stage in a dress.

[DeuceWallaces]

He lived about 15 years longer than I expected.

Yeah. Not surprising in the least.

Just happy I saw STP and VR a couple times each.

[pinhead]

OMG, The Stone Temple Pilots were the greatest band in the history of the World.

Only joking, they sucked ass. Better than Coldplay though. It should have been Chris Martin.

[DeuceWallaces]

He never got to make up with the other STP guys either. They weren't talking to each other the last time I read about them

They've been on tour several times since their initial break up.

[BurningHammer]

Just learned that Linkin Park's Chester Bennington was the singer for STP for a while and just parted way a month ago.

[~primetime~]

cocaine
yeah that is better linked to cardiac arrest than heroin

[~primetime~]

'crack' cocaine even...fck

at age 48

If your nearing 50 you really shouldn't give yourself good odds of coming out of a 4 day crack bender alive.

[HylianNightmare]

Never liked the band but still very sad
