Now...

CAN EVERYONE JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT "ASSUMING" TO KNOW WHAT HE IS OR IS NOT ON & WHAT IS MAKING HIM ACT ANY KIND OF WAY!!!

As I always said, none of you KNOW him or are in his everyday life, so how the hell can you say hes all strung out & doing drugs again?? You're all just as bad as the people who interview him & can't ever seen NOT to mention his past issues.

I hope that you guys will stop jumping the gun with what Scott is doing & just be loving fans.

You just heard from his partner & one of his closest friends. Now SHUT IT!!!!

Before I cut all of you negative nancy's!!!

I never once said he was all strung out doing drugs.

I'm trying not to post on these forums much because it only gets me in trouble (haha). But I read this thread and I have to say and take it from a guy that knows the signs by heart. Scot's speech issues are not because of cocaine or heroin. Believe me because I know when dudes doing either. I have seen all permutations. My opinion is it's the bi-polar meds. They are kind of strong but when he doesn't take them he gets really depressed and uncomfortable and then he does start with the illegal drugs and you all know what that leads to... much worse things. So it's a question of the lesser of two evils. I personally would rather him be a little mush mouthed from his meds then out shooting dope and maybe dying or getting arrested or shot or some shit.

And just a word about the episodes. You guys are going to see some stuff you like and maybe some stuff you don't like. But we are just trying to give a really intimate view (poop jokes aside) of what goes on around softdrive. We thought that people would be interested and it's a way to give something back to the fans for free and (lets be honest) promote the label and the bands. So far the response has been a hundred percent positive and I thank you all for that.

PS this version of FTP was just a special one off for that gig we did. The version that we may or may not be playing out on tour is louder and more like the OG though still different.

I'm going to quote Doug too, everybody did  :D

The idea of give a intimate view of Softdrive and Lavish through the webisodes means a lot for fans like me (people who lives far far far away) it's just... you feel closer :-[
And thanks thanks thanks for FTP

Doug -

Can't say i knew who you were before this latest Weiland album.  However, every time I hear you in an interview you seem cool as shit.  I love your guitar playing as well - very nice style.  Keep doing what you do, man.

DITTO!!

Thanks for taking the time to reassure people here who genuinely care about Scott and wish only the best for him.  It's really cool to get an inside look at what goes on in the studio.  I met Doug in person and he was very sweet!

He IS very sweet. Hes a great person. It's nice to know in that world of the fucked up music industry, he is able to stay such a nice person. It hasn't chewed him up & messed him all up.

Can someone make an MP3 of "Paralysis" from this video?  Sounds badass!

How could they not notice it?! Because it's a little mint.  It's a Junior Mint!

wow....he sounds MUCH better, thats the best performance of a song ive heard him do in awhile
When STP had a cookout after filming the video for the Core single "Plush," Weiland made jerk chicken that was "spectacular," Dean raves.
