Devasted. Heavy heart. Lifelong fan since day 1 early 90's. Shocked regardless of what others say about him. Just in shock. Still had many years of music inside of him. We all wanted to see him rock into his what his rock  idol would say Golden Years. One of a kind voice, man and soul.
RIP Scott Welland

STP really changed my life back in 1992 - wasn't big into music as a 7th grader, but when I saw Sex Type Thing on MTV, everything changed.  Purple was perfection.  Tiny Music was different and exciting.  I skipped class from my soph. year of college to buy No. 4 and listen to it nonstop.

Just crushing.  Was gonna see him tomorrow night, hoping to meet him and thank him.  RIP Scott....the pain and addictions are gone now.  Pick a flower, hold your breath, and drift away........

He taught me to love music. Forever freed from his demons.

I just heard this... literally just now.  I never thought I'd be shocked when this day came, but I can't wrap my head around this. Scott Weiland has been part of my cultural life, musical and poetic education, and personal emotional composite since 1992. Throughout my most formative years and beyond he generated the soundtrack to my life. I'm truly saddened by this news.

Official statement on Scott's passing.  Scott's manager sent it, and I posted it.  I've been helping run Scott's social media over the last month after burying the hatchet with him when I interviewed him.  I never thought I'd have to choose the picture for the death statement on my favorite singer of all time.  My heart is absolutely broken.

His hashtag is trending on Instagram. #scottweiland has over 64,000 new posts. If only people showed that much love while he was still with us.....

If there's an afterlife, I know his best bud Jeremy was waiting for him at those pearly gates and he's finally at peace....

Holy shit, I finally met him at a meet and greet not even a week ago.  This is shocking... RIP to my favorite musician of all time.

My poor boy. 💔

I have no words. I'm not shocked, having seen him two weeks ago completely wasted out of his mind. I still feel like I took a punch to the gut. My heart is shattered.
How could they not notice it?! Because it's a little mint.  It's a Junior Mint!

Damn. No STP reunion, now, ever. No VR with Scott again no more great music. So many thoughts and memories going through my head. So much beautiful music that we are luckily left with. The Christmas album will be even more haunting this season. As, I began typing this my gf's kid, who I discovered the news with and played many of his stuff for before, came in playing Til The Dust Is Gone which was a fav.of hers and it was very powerful to hear. Having a vodka and egg nog and about to go listen to some more if his music and reminisce on one of the greatest singers of our generation. He was the underdog we all rooted for and was a true inspiration for all the times he conquered adversity and reinvented himself. Sadly, his time has come. R.I.P. gentle soul and rock giant. You will be greatly missed.

This is horrible. I saw "Scott Weiland" in the Twitter trends or whatever it's called and I think to myself "Maybe he's got back with STP!" and then I see this...I'm at a loss for words.


One of the greatest performers of all time. Rest in peace, Mr. Weiland. It kills me that I'll never get a chance to meet you now.

I finally uploaded the one good clip I got at the show I went to last month. You can see how much fun he's having performing his new stuff, even though he isn't moving around like he was back in the day....


Poor Noah and Lucy.... God damnit, those poor kids. I hope they can find strength at this time and are able to avoid the inevitable firestorm of speculation about what finally took their father's life.... :(
