The Stone Temple Pilots Crash And Burn On Stage - Break-Up Number 2 Coming Soon?

Written By: Ian S. Russell
 
Mr Weiland is hitting the front page of our blog once again - how many times is he going to make a news-worthy D++K out of himself this month? Turns out at-least onces more
As news broke about the erratic-drug-fuelled ex Velvet Revolver front-man and current Stone Temple Pilot was not present at the recording of the latest STP album recording - apparently due to the band working better away from Scott, the latest Stone Temple Pilot crash was annousned.
 
It seems the band again ditched there front-man live on stage at the latest STP gig in Milwaukee on March 26. This comes only 2 days after Scott 'lost ballence' and fell off stage mid-song at the Tyson Events Center in Sioux City, Iowa.
 
Eye witness's from the latest incident report the singer made several mistakes during the shortened set, and at one point totally forgot the lyrics to 'Dead and Bloated' this caused the rest of the band to try to improvise while Weiland regained his barings.
 
An eye-witness reports the early ending of the gig:
 "I saw Robert look at Dean and shake his head, as if to say, 'This isn't going to be salvageable' and then, finally, the Deleos took off their instruments and walked to the side of the stage. [Drummer Eric] Kretz kept drumming and Weiland seemed oblivious to the fact that there was no more guitar and bass. He [kept] kind of improvising on the melody and singing until Kretz played an ending-of-the-song kind of drum thing to try to signal to Scott to wrap it up, but he kept singing a bit after that. Then, Kretz got up and walked right past Scott without looking at him or touching him, and off the stage on the same side that the DeLeos went. Scott finally then walked off stage on the other side."
 
This is just the latest in a string of mess-ups from the troubled front-man - if anyone wants to put a bet on the next band to break-up, I would join them betting my 7 year journalist carer on these guys.
