I recently saw Scott on the Howard Stern show, and i was blown away by how bad the dude looked.. He couldn't of weighed more than 110lbs, his face was gaunt, he looked like an old man.. I know he has had his share of a "hard life" and all.. IE: drugs, booze, rehab.. BUT it didnt' even look like the same person. He looked like a strung out, burnt out, old man.. I was so dissapointed. I use to think he was hot when he was in STP, but i couldn't get over seeing him..

Totally dissapointed and suprised!

Old Scott:




New Scott: (And this picture isn't even half as bad as he looks)

Clay Aiken?

I dunno what this guy's deal is, it's pretty fuckin' sad b/c STP was GOOD! Drugs is a powerful thang

Supposedly he is clean now.. But his jitters and all on the HS show, showed he either looked like was going through withdrawl or he was smokin some good crack before he came in to the studio!

BabyCakes said:

I thought he JUST got arrested again, like days ago Hope he's clean though. But the band is kaput now, right?

"drugs and ack-ahol have ruined my life" -Tyrone………But for real, I saw him perform live on some late night show the other night and he made the Olsen girl look obese. Sumthin's up with him.

I haven't follwed STP's music in a few years.. But i think so... He was Howard Stern's studio with other people from different bands.. Slash was there.. SO i am not too sure!

BabyCakes said:

That was probably Velvet Revolver. Made up of the remains of Guns n Roses and Scott Weiland.

Was Stone Temple Pilots the band that used to wear all that makeup in funky throwback suits?

ONE of the bands... Beck was good for that too!Actually a number of bands did that thing during the time grunge was at its peak!

BabyCakes said:

I totally agree, I commented on this exactly in another topic about Velvet Revolver. It's not just Scott that looks weirdly skinny... look at the drummer Matt Sorrem and for that matter the rest of the band....

I noticed it most in the VR video for Slither..... strange lighting, quick cuts and Skeletor....

The dude is emaciated. Guess heroin will do that to ya. Wanna place bets on how long Velvet Revolver will be around?

BabyCakes said:

Oh, okay. I just remember seeing this magazine (I think it was Spin) where it was like three cats dressed up in some soul polyester suits with makeup.

BabyCakes said:

Yeah, STP announced it officially about 8 months ago. It's a shame, they were my favorite band, and Scott Weiland is so talented. It really looks like he's not going to get out of this drug thing alive.

Drugs will do that I guess. But MAN...that was a great band.

Well, STP ended because everyone else in the band was sick of Scott's drug problem, and since it looks like he's keeping it up, I'm guessing Velvet Revolver only has a couple of years ahead of them.
