I really like this album.  It's nothing too extraordinary, but it's very cool and peaceful.  I like just laying back and jamming out to it....it has that nice feel.  My friends really enjoy some of the stuff on it also.

SCOTT WEILAND's Busy New Year's Eve - Dec. 12, 2008

Singer Scott Weiland (STONE TEMPLE PILOTS, ex-VELVET REVOLVER) will join "American Idol" winner David Cook as a performer on the Fox network's "New Year's Live", which will be aired from the Mirage in Las Vegas. The show begins at 11 p.m. on December 31 and will also feature a "death-defying" motorcycle stunt by Robbie Knievel, son of legendary daredevil Evel Knievel.

STONE TEMPLE PILOTS ? including, presumably, Weiland ? is scheduled to perform New Year's Eve at Club Nokia in Los Angeles. They will also play two days later in Las Vegas, Nevada at earl Concert Theater at Palms Casino.

"Missing Cleveland", the new video from Scott Weiland, can be viewed below. The clip was directed by Kevin Kerslake, who has previously helmed videos for such artists as THE USED, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, ATREYU, PAPA ROACH and VELVET REVOLVER. The song comes off Weiland's second solo album, "Happy In Galoshes", which sold 10,500 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position No. 96 on The Billboard 200 chart.

Scott performed Sunday at the Kroq Almost Acoustic Christmas show...

Scott Weiland

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hj3bTxuiv_s

Review:

Overall, it was quite a night, one of the strongest in years. There was only one glaring error: Scott Weiland's terrible solo set, which opened with a weak rendition of the Smiths' "Reel around the Fountain" and only got progressively worse. Singing in a laughably arch, pseudo-theatrical Bowie style with an overdone, drawn-out vibrato, Weiland was simply lost in his own world ? and the crowd, half of which streamed out when he started, could tell.

I will say that his miserable Stone Temple Pilots set Saturday night now seems to be just laziness, not a case of drugs taking hold. But that doesn't explain (or excuse) how poor his enervated, self-indulgent Sunday performance was. Not surprisingly, hardly anyone clapped when it was over. Honestly, I don't think anyone knew what to make of it.

Stone Temple Pilot inks Bug deal

13:59 | Friday December 19, 2008

By Shelley Jones

Scott Weiland has signed a new publishing deal with Bug Music including his share of the Stone Temple Pilots catalogue and songs from future solo projects.

As part of the agreement Weiland will receive funding to pursue the development of creative projects and writers for Bug Music through his co-founded label, Softdrive Records.

The deal follows a resurgence of popularity in Stone Temple Pilots resulting from their recent reformation and concert tour.

Bug Music senior vice-president of creative services Eddie Gomez says, ?I believe that Stone Temple Pilots catalogue has really stood the test of time, and that the band and their songs sound as good today as they ever have.?

He says regarding STP... It's all good, we want to make records.  The only problem is the problem with Atlantic Records.

Weiland's album ?Happy in Galoshes? deals with lost love

By SANDY COHEN

Associated Press Posted Jan 01, 2009

This album is really my heart and soul,'' Weiland says, sitting in the studio?s glass-enclosed control booth with an acoustic guitar on his lap, "because this is my playground.''

Weiland  plays at the Paradise Rock Club in Boston on Jan. 25.

Over the past decade, the Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver frontman escaped to the studio again and again ? when STP broke up and reunited, when he and his wife broke up and reunited.

"Whenever he had some time, he would come in and we?d either write a song or record a song or something,'' says Doug Grean, Weiland?s longtime friend and musical collaborator.  "Every time he got fed up with the big rock machine, the corporate machine, he would come in and do a song. Every time he got kicked out of his house by his wife, he would come in and do a song.''

 Most of those tracks appear on the recently released "Happy in Galoshes.''
   
The title is a tad ironic, since Weiland isn?t exactly what you?d call a happy type ? especially lately. The 41-year-old rocker continues to be dogged by his drug addiction, though trips to rehab and jail have become less frequent. Last year, his brother died of a drug overdose, his mother was diagnosed with cancer, he had a dramatic split with Velvet Revolver and hit the road with STP. He is also going through an "unexpected divorce'' from wife Mary, with whom he has two children.

"It?s been a rough year and a half,'' says Weiland, who delves into his personal issues without provocation or reservation. In flowing, stream-of-consciousness style, he talks about his drug problems, his divorce, jail, blogging, high school, being a dad and the war in Iraq. He switches subjects without warning or reason. But there is an earnestness to him, a sort of wounded sincerity.

He talks about his 8-year-old son and 6-year-old daughter and how he tried to keep STP?s reunion tour short so he could spend more time with them. He shares how uncontrolled drug use derailed his first solo album, 1998?s "12 Bar Blues,'' and how most of the musicians went to rehab before the record was released. He talks about his other stints in treatment and jail and confesses: "I currently don?t have my driver?s license. I?ll be able to get it back in a couple months.'' He reveals that ``Happy in Galoshes'' is about his relationship with his wife, whom he married in 2000.

"It?s a concept album of the love lost between she and I,'' Weiland says. ``It chronicles our relationship from the moment that we got married and really, every time there was a separation is when I would come in here and live here basically and just purge.''

The album is a genre-defying collection of 19 songs ? some hard rock, some pop tunes, some folksy tracks and a cover of David Bowie?s  "Fame.''

But "Happy'' is likely his last double-disc effort, says Grean.  "The next record?s going to be totally different,'' he says. "We might do a country album next time.''  no Cheesy

Screaming STP at Scott Shows

So we've finished the first set of tour dates. These were all radio shows and we are really happy with how it all went. It started off good and end great. It happens with all bands, the more shows you play the better and tighter the set gets. I think we were really ooking by the NYC show and just got hotter as we went along. But I have to say that the last show, the Chicago show was probably the best we've played.

On a side note, we've added another STP song to the set "Unglued". People having been yelling for us to play STP songs at every show and this is understandable. But you guys have to understand a few things. To begin with there is a another band called STP that is actually out there touring and if you want to hear a whole set of STP tunes you can pretty easily go see them, they were just on tour for 5 months and they are doing a few shows next week. So it's not like they are broken up and you can't ever see them anymore. That's not the case. So that's one reason not to sit there screaming STP at a Scott solo show.

Also Scott WANTS to play his solo stuff, that's what this "Solo" touring stuff is all about. He wants to establish an identity for himself that separate from STP and VR. So if you buy a ticket to a Scott Weiland Solo tour concert you should be prepared to hear mostly Scott Weiland Solo songs.

Finally I think you should know that we all love STP (me and the solo band). And we love playing their great songs. I myself have worked on their last 2 records. I know and I'm friends with all of them and by not playing much of their stuff we are not trying to be disrespectful. We are actually just respecting Scott's wishes and supporting his vision for his solo identity.

So if you want to come and yell STP at the show's that cool. We don't get mad or anything. And every one has the "Freedom of Speech" whatever they want. You could even yell "Doug Grean is a fat sloppy live guitar player" and you'd be within your rights. But what I guess I'm asking you for is to be patient and understanding and let Scott do what he wants to do for now. There will be plenty of time and chances for you to hear the STP boys rock the fuck out of their awesome catalog in the future.

Please be understanding of this post - it's written with the best intentions and wishes that everyone gets what they want. The fans, the bands, and the singers.

Thanks
DG

A day in the life of...

ANGER ISSUES

January 9, 2009 --

FRESH out of another stint in rehab, former Stone Temple Pilots frontman Scott Weiland (above) is already losing his composure. The onetime heroin addict was with a female friend at Primo, a hip coffee shop on the Sunset Strip on Monday, when they got into a screaming fight. A spy said, "Scott called the girl a piece of trash, so she threw her pack of cigarettes at his head, but missed. They landed on [producer] Darren Star's table." The woman stormed out and Weiland raged after her.

Best of Scott Weiland

Just an FYI to all you STP/VR fans- We have learned some more STP/VR songs so they may or may not be showing up in the set after all. We (the band) know it's important to you guys so we went ahead and learned a bunch. Now it's up to Scott to decide what he wants to play and when. Remember it's his show and he calls the tune.

Also another thing worth mentioning is that we are doing a lot more improvisational stuff. So be prepared to hear more of that on this tour as well.

Weiland Vegas Jam from Last week

Last week we taped a few songs for Fox to air on New Years Eve. When ever we do some TV like this it's always a very uptight scene. You know with all the cameras and producers and what not. Not to mention the fact that they staged the gig in a very fancy Dance Club/disco. Basically full of club kids that were not really Scott fans but just there for the "scene". So the script was for us to go on and play three songs and then play the last song twice. The last song was Cleveland the song that was for broadcast. Well what happened was we got out there on the stage in this crazy disco and Scott turned to me and said hey lets "Set the Vibe" and by that he ment "fuck it lets just jam for a while until we start feeling and then we'll do what the want us to do" and we are all really into improvjaming these days so.... We launched into a 9 minute Barn burning super jam. Well about 5 minutes into this thing the directors and managers start freaking out because we'd gone off the plan. They started coming up to the stahe and making the cut motions. But being rebelious rockers and also just being into it we just kept rocking. Until eventually they pulled the plug on us. They did get the version of Cleveland that we promised and a really long rock jam they probably didn't know what to do with. And it turns out that some body in the club taped it and we just found out today that the recording is out there floating around the internet. The quality is not very good but since it's already out we've decided to mix down a better version of it and post it around the softdrive site as a special present from us to you.

I think you'll dig it.

Scott Weiland Seeks Sweaty Redemption Onstage as Solo Tour Rolls Into Austin

1/20/09

?I ain?t no sinner,? Scott Weiland announced before he and the three guitarists and drummer comprising his five-piece band launched into a fevered rendition of ?Interstate Love Song,? the alternative-rock classic by Stone Temple Pilots, one of a handful of bands Weiland experienced problems with, presumably due to his well-chronicled, heroin-related sins.

Weiland at least gave the appearance of a redeemed rocker Friday at La Zona Rosa in Austin. It was the second stop on a tour in support of his second solo album, Happy in Galoshes, which arrives a decade after its predecessor, 12 Bar Blues. Weiland looked svelte in a dapper three-piece suit. He danced his own frenetic version of the twist, with the stamina of a long-distance runner. His only onstage vice was the occasional cigarette.

The thirtysomething males in the audience went as ballistic during ?Interstate? as they did during fellow STP heavies ?Vaseline? and ?Unglued,? raising their devil-horn hands high above their heads. In between said golden oldies, Weiland tried out the new stuff, albeit to lukewarm reception. That might have had less to do with the quality and presentation of the songs ? ?Paralysis,? in particular, with its foot-stomping refrain, ?call my name, shout my name,? playing out against a backdrop of an EKG graphic and female silhouettes common to the mudflaps of 18-wheelers, was especially exhilarating ? as it did with the scattershot nature of the songs. One minute there was a Latin lounge vibe, as on ?Killing Me Sweetly?; the next there was an industrial tone with electronic accents, as on ?Big Black Monster.?

But while Weiland?s repertoire was erratic, his faith in the absolution of his sins remained steadfast when, tiny bubbles floating about the stage during encore lead-off ?Beautiful Day,? he reiterated his newfound disposition: ?Doing well/Feeling fine/Modulate/Higher mind.?

Set List:

?Reel Around the Fountain?
?Killing Me Sweetly?
?Vasoline?
?Paralysis?
?Mockingbird Girl?
?Atlanta?
?Big Black Monster?
?Unglued?
?Blind Confusion?
?Interstate Love Song?
(Space Jam)
?Barbarella?
Encore:
?Beautiful Day?
?Missing Cleveland?

Scott Weiland and Rock & Roll Religion Launch Contemporary Collection - Weiland for English Laundry

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Scott Weiland, legendary lead singer of Stone Temple Pilots, and Christopher Wicks, designer and owner Rock & Roll Religion, have announced the launch of their much anticipated contemporary men's collection -- Weiland for English Laundry. This inaugural collection will debut at Magic Las Vegas on February 17, 2009.

(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20090121/LA60855)

Christopher Wicks, designer and owner of English Laundry, Fender: The Clothing Collection, and The Jimi Hendrix Experience, has teamed with Scott Weiland to create a collection that embodies the iconic style of the fashionable STP front man.

"From early on, I was inspired by rock icons like David Bowie and Keith Richards who helped in molding my personal sense of style," said Weiland. "I am really looking forward to launching this line with Christopher Wicks and English Laundry."

"I have the utmost respect for Scott Weiland, both as an artist and as a designer," said Wicks. "He is truly one of the last great rock stars, and his impact on style and music is undeniable. I am proud to be joining forces with him for this collaboration."

Weiland for English Laundry is a lifestyle brand for the true rock rebel. The overall concept is derived from the rock decadence of the 1960's, and inspirations were taken from Savile Row circa 1965 and renowned bands such as The Kinks, Beatles, and Rolling Stones. Eclectic combinations of fabrics, patterns and color have been reformulated to replicate the rich rock culture that defined that era.

The collection boasts a variety of wovens, vests, t-shirts, pants, hats, ties and scarves. All fabrics are based on original vintage patterns circa 1965 through 1979 and have been reproduced for modern-day wear. Pants have a tailored narrow fit with flat fronts, and wovens feature bold chalk stripes, Prince of Wales plaids and tonic two-tone solids.

Retail price points range from $40 - $120 with a targeted distribution to better department and specialty stores. Weiland for English Laundry has successfully combined English Laundry's famous craftsmanship with Scott Weiland's infamous flare. Weiland for English Laundry can be found at the English Laundry flagship store (7519 Melrose Avenue, Los Angeles, California) and at www.globalrebels.com in February of 2009.
