Review: SCOTT WEILAND Back In STP Fold, Not Back From The Edge - June 2, 2008
Nate Chinen of The New York Times reports: Scott Weiland, the lead singer of STONE TEMPLE PILOTS, had just a few words for the crowd at the PNC Bank Arts Center [in Holmdel, New Jersey] on Saturday night [May 31], and that was probably a good thing. Two weeks into this post-grunge band's reunion tour, he seemed bedraggled and bushed, like a scarecrow. His first comments were barely coherent, and what came next was dispiriting. "Sometimes you make crazy choices," he said, in a distinctly undefiant tone.
The evening was billed as 92.3 K-ROCK's Return of the Rock, with opening sets by the alternative-rock bands FILTER and ASHES DIVIDE. STONE TEMPLE PILOTS finally appeared more than an hour after FILTER, and there were boos mixed in with the cheers. Mr. Weiland noted that this was a hometown show for half of the band, the brothers Robert and Dean DeLeo, who play bass and guitar. "I apologize for ..." he started to add.
"Apology accepted, brother," Robert DeLeo said quickly, changing the subject and hustling on with the show. [See video of this portion of the concert below.] There would be time for contrition later: the tour is running through the rest of the summer, provided Mr. Weiland can hold it together that long.

In Scott's defense. I couldn't understand much of anything from that fan filmed video. The audio was garbled, certainly not the best of quality.

I was on the STP site and on the fan fourm and the people who went to the concert are pissed and say Scott was just wasted-the rest of the band was ok, but Scott is just a mess right now and really should not be touring

the peppers dont have to recreate backing vocals like this do they
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2Q9dNOKimc
While i HATE the fact they use backing tracks for that song now. For some reason they dont use the backing female singers which used to work just fine with songs like that live, id rather that then backing tapes but still. The peppers dont have to create chants that big.

While I don't doubt Scott might be in bad shape right now, I've learned that "fans" who post on fan forums aren't always the most optimistic and/or accurate.

I can't either. Some people jump to a lot of conclusions when they
assume
someone is fucked up. On the other hand, Slash mentioned him being "out to lunch" during a lot of the last VR performances. It will be interesting to see if they pull off this entire run of dates.

From the NY Times:
[Weiland] seemed bedraggled and bushed, like a scarecrow. His first comments were barely coherent, and what came next was dispiriting. "Sometimes you make crazy choices," he said, in a distinctly undefiant tone...
The show got better, but not by much. Stone Temple Pilots was always a riff-driven band with an impressive low-end churn, and a handful of its songs are exceptionally sturdy. So it made sense that the crowd carried the choruses of "Plush" and "Dead and Bloated," and that the band nailed a handful of its other 1990s staples, like "Interstate Love Song" and "Vaseline." But the feeling imparted by these performances was desultory and joyless. The band never rose above a sort of grim competence.
It was the same with Mr. Weiland. While he expertly struck the image of a rock star -- strutting and preening, and shedding his white jacket and T-shirt to reveal a sinewy torso -- his voice sounded less flexible than usual, and he sometimes seemed nearly out of breath. He forgot some lyrics and flubbed others, and often used a megaphone as a prop, or perhaps a crutch.

i hope his career goes down the toilet again, doing this again he doesnt deserve anymore chances.
I dont understand why any rock band always let drugs destroy them. Very few come back from it, and yet they go back on AGAIN.
Scott, Steve Tyler (although at least he can still put on a fuckin good performance), slash, matt.

Here's the link to the Opie and Anthony bit about what happened backstage at the STP Jersey show. And yes, there does end up being a GNR connection here. Just listen for yourself.....

I believe it's an illness commonly referred to as addiction.

In Tylers case he (supposedly) had been clean since 86. Thats a long time surely it would of been out of his system by now.

Stone Temple Pilots summer journey looks to be going downhill fast.
Listen to Opie & Anthiny's radio report of some recent show's
Backstage fighting.......over an hour late going onstage
the Deleo brother's yelling for 'Axl' to get onstage
and a wasted Scott Weidland..........who does not associate with any members of the band (sound familiar?)
who would have imagined Scott Weidland being capable of this (Hahahahaha)
