Scott Weiland, the former frontman for rock band Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver, has died according to reports.
Dave Navarro, guitarist and member of Jane's Addiction, tweeted at 9:01 p.m. PST "our friend Scott Weiland has died." Just learned our friend Scott Weiland has died. So gutted, I am thinking of his family tonight. — Dave Navarro (@DaveNavarro) December 4, 2015
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.
Weiland was 48.
