Scott takes another shot... on VR:

"You can't flog a dead horse"

http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/showbiz/2008/04/11/quan.stone.temple.cnn?iref=videosearch

You know, when they played that slither clip, I was like, FUCK, WHAT A GREAT FUCKING SONG!!!!!  I hope Scott and them have a good tour.  He is full of shit.  The band sounded good though..

The more I think about this the more pissed off I am. Scott is a complete jag-off. Does he forget that he was a joke before VR? No one, not even STP, wanted anything to do with him. Picking him wasn't for their benefit as much as it was for his. He's living somewhere over the rainbow right now, on Scott ego land, I mean that guy is not in touch with reality right now. He's not an important artist. And if it wasn't for VR he'd still be singing backup on Limp Bizkit albums. Then for him to turn around and piss on them now? The world has not exactly been itching for another STP record. They were a joke when they first came out, and not only were they still a joke after their second album, they were not even a successful joke anymore. I used to give them the benefit of the doubt because I liked some of their songs, but that's done now.

And yes Scott, you ripped off Eddie and Layne. Deal with it. That's why your style changed to what we have now after grunge died... What a fraud.

Rewind. Head Bangers Ball, early 90's:

Butthole Surfers: Hey...What band does STP remind you of?

Rikki Rachman: The question is, what band don't they remind you of?

And for the record, the weakest part of VR was Scott's songwriting. Sorry, but if some of those lyrics didn't make you cringe, or if you could listen through some of those songs with a straight face, then you are either deaf or living in Scott Weiland ego land too.

This screams bitter and delusional.  Go ahead and rag STP.  It's the easy thing to do.  I'm going to go listen to Purple and Tiny Music.

What pisses me off is how people are so quick to jump off the ship.

People loved scott.

Now he left people hate him

Same with Buckethead in GNR and now if Robin leaves u will see these same people hating him when they once loved him.

Its ridiculous.
I've always liked Scott, I will always like Scott.

See, I kinda agree and I kinda don't. I grew up listening to STP, and I always thought he did a very good job with the talent he has in VR. That said, give credit where it's due-The Deleo's wrote the music for every recognizable stp song. Scott didn't write much music at all for STP until their last two albums, which in my opinion range from sometimes real strong to stuff I could do without. I am a fan of Scott as a performer, I was in the past and I am in the present. Even when I was 13 tho listening to STP he has always come off as extremely pretentious and as a prick. Scott the person I will never be a fan of.

That's exactly what I thought, because the statement was there, but obviously just a "cut" piece.  We don't know the entire context of what he said, unfortunately......

Scott has written some great melodies, but I don't see his lyrics as being all that great.  Never have.  I think he gets away with being a poor lyricist because he has a good voice and writes good melodies.  His melodies are memorable, not his lyrics.

Bitter? No. Pissed off? Yes. He's a complete dick. Most asshole rock stars at least have some charm, this guy doesn't. Nice way to stab the guys who picked you up out of the gutter in the back. How is that delusional?

Lady Picture Show is one of the best songs written in the 90's

that and Big Empty alone win Scott major pts for whatever he decides to do.

The melodies and vocals to those songs are good, but so is the music.  For that, the De Leos deserve big props as well.

Its ridiculous.
I've always liked Scott, I will always like Scott.

My views on Scott through the history of VR have differed over time, I'll admit that. However, I don't agree with these people who change their opinions just because he isn't playing with their favourite musicians anymore. Scott always has been and always will be a great performer. I love him as a musician and '12 Bar Blues' is still one of my favourite albums. I never cared that much for STP, however a lot of their songs stick in my head and I actually really enjoy watching them live. So many stand out songs, I can't believe they are not one of my favourite bands. I've lost where I was going now, so I'll shut up.

that doesn't match my feeling towards the ones you mentioned at all,

after this break-up i have more respect for scott then matt for example..

i wasn't around forums when buckethead left but since he have left i've checked him out and i think he's fawking amazing and actually think it's sad he left

if robin leaves i'll think it's a damn shame i don't think he will though, but if he did i'll still like what he've done for the band Smiley buckethead and finck is still 2 of my favourite guitarists and will probably be for a very long time
