Yeah, that's what I took out of the interview too.  I felt real bad for him, and he almost made me depressed listening to him.  And to hear him almost break down when telling the rape story, he was clearly emotional.  I hope things turn around for him.  He did make it clear though, that people shouldn't feel sorry for him because he has been blessed, but still.  It was a little sad.

Scott Weiland - Doctors Order Vocal Rest For Scott Weiland

15 September 2011

The Stone Temple Pilots have scrapped more shows after doctors put sick frontman Scott Weiland on "complete vocal rest".

The band was forced to cancel a concert in Cincinnati, Ohio on Tuesday (13Sep11) after Weiland fell ill.

He then visited experts at the University of Cincinnati Health Voice and Swallowing Center, where he was diagnosed with "tremendously inflamed" vocal cords and told not to speak or sing.

Weiland was warned he risks permanent damage if he continues to perform, prompting the band to call off the two remaining shows on their summer (11) tour.

A statement from a Dr. Sid Khosla reads, "Today myself, Dr. Eva Van Leer and Dr. Keith Casper consulted with Mr. Weiland. Upon a video stroboscopy, we determined his left vocal cord has likely scarring and his right vocal cord is tremendously inflamed.

"With such a heavy concert schedule and vocal activity, we determined that Mr. Weiland could potentially run the risk of a vocal haemorrhage or suffer permanent damage, hence putting him on complete vocal rest."

The Plush hitmakers have axed gigs in Louisville, Kentucky and Council Bluffs, Iowa. The group's next scheduled date is the 5 November (11) in Concho, Oklahoma.

That's a bummer but if its that serious he needs to follow doctors orders.

A little break from the drinking and smoking wouldn't hurt either. The voice is a delicate instrument.

[cotis]

They have been touring non-stop for quite awhile now, not surprised he needs some off time.

Ive grown to No.4 now

Scott Weiland's Holiday Album Doesn't Suck

his "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" is AMAZING

just bought it.
Haunting shit

I love this album

He sounds drunk on half of these though 

[Bodhi]

He sounds drunk on half of these though 

are you sure he "sounds" drunk?

  Jim Morrison had that gift too, he could just "sound" drunk on their music.

Agreed.  He sounds great on that song(and so does the band.)  I also like "The Christmas Song", although he sounds sort of lit.   I think it's hilarious him being drunk singing stuff like " Christ the son of God..." etc    The only song I don't like is track 2...he sounds like Kermit The Frog on that one... But I like a lot of the songs, and it shows Scott's diversity as a singer.

[Eazy E]

Doesn't "Cinnamon" sound eerily similar to the Tragically Hip's "In View"?
