Goes over the usual stuff, with some new comments by band members. A cool (new?) pic.

good read but i wish there was something new.

Seems like every article mentions the same 4 things

1. 5 years
2. VR
3. weiland's legal troubles
4. AOA

Just once i wish someone would sit down and interview them with questions that haven't been asked 4000 times by other media outlets.

Cool pic, but this quote makes me a little uneasy: "I live my life the way I live my life," Weiland said, loosening his paisley tie and brushing tresses of pink-dyed hair from his face with visible contempt. "I don't have to make any apologies."

Good read. I don't know how accurate the whole Opie & Anthony stuff is about Scott threatening to kick Rob off the tour. Controversy is something that accompanies the band in the press, and I wouldn't be surprised if 3/4 of the stuff that's said in the papers is inaccurate.

That's inaccurate, Opie and Anthony said Robert told Scott to kick his bimbo off the tour, and he did.

it's true. every article likes to remind everyone of the PJ similarities that were made back in 1993.

Glad to hear that you heard the same thing. I was at the gig, and on Opie & Anthony's morning show the next day I had heard them say that Rob said to "kick that C*** off the tour, and Scott supposedly abliged.

I hate that quote.  I'm a huge fan of Scott but he needs to get his shit together and not have such a care free attitude, he's got two kids at home who want to have their Dad around when they're older.  Hopefully Scott's not on smack and it's just other shit like has been previously reported, but no matter what substance it is, he's 40-years old and he needs to grow up.

Its nice to see everyone is stuck in the early 90's... Pfftt...Get the fuck over it people. STP has obviously proved they aren't PJ clones.

I like the picture. Scott really should wear that hat all the time.. It hides his not so sexy hair very well :)

No kidding. i have yet to hear a band that got PJ comparisons that even remotely sounded like them.

STP especially is in a league of their own.

I'm worried about the rumour of Scott kicks Robert off the tour.

Would be that true?

I have yet to see any correlation between the two myself.  Sure, the playing styles might be similar from time to time, but Scott in no way resembles Vedder at all.  I agree.  STP sounds like STP.
