To be in a band where every member is so deeply concerned and connected with the creation of music must have been an amazing thing for each one of them
Scott was so well spoken and wise. He’s always spot on with his answers. Very eloquent too,
I miss this Scott!!!! My favorite band from the 90s!!
@Lisa Surlie you seem like you project your fear of mortality onto others when you slightly disagree with someone's opinion. He was cremated by the way, now his ashes are collecting dust on someone's windowsill, no worm food.
@@flamyyy8382 What about Layne,Cornell and Kurt?
I just watched politically incorrect ep from 2000 with Scott. very well spoken. losing him still hurts
One of my favorite Bands forever. Loved Scott and always will.
🤘🤘
this may sound like a superficial comment given the beauty of their music and legacy but I really loved Scott’s fashion sense and style
MsRadar23 Me too! And it was constantly changing
That just shows you how adaptable that guy was. Even vocal-wise
Scott was cool, in every respect. Just wished he could have grasped his problem, more eternally.
this probably wasnt his best look: the * cap and the shades seems a bit contrived, in a 90s grunge leftovers way
Man STP is truly one of the best bands ever. Love these guys
Scott was so lucid and sharp here. When he was healthy, he was so on the mark.
Rob's bass lines are incredible, and Dean's chord choices are so interesting and unconventional. These guys are musically the most interesting band of the 90s era in my opinion. After Core they really separated themselves from the pack.
I assume you’re referring to pure “rock” bands? Because i would say its 1) Radiohead 2) Smashing Pumpkins 3) STP
@@TheAlibabatreenah - soundgarden
Scott is incredibly sharp and smart here. Very impressive.
Went down the STP rabbit hole tonight, one of the best rock bands in our lifetime! They were hit-makers and they knew it!
Can't believe Scott is gone. Such a talent. Glad you guys got to talk with him. Great interview
I never noticed how much Scott resembled David Bowie sometimes. Not so much here.. but sometimes you gotta do a double take.
On of the Best Singer Live i See dont get the Honor like Cris Chester Lemmy:( Dont Support Axl Rose listen To To Scott not Axl this Mann beat Women.
@@lauramalizia9636 Right
@@lauramalizia9636 Scott really looked up to Bowie....
@@rjenkins79 yes he did.
This interview brings Sour Girl immediately to mind, since the video for the song was filmed around this same time. Scott had just gotten out of jail. The #4 star hat he is wearing.....The way he is reflecting about the broken system that jails people with addictions rather than looking for treatment of the disease. The very disease that took his life. Makes me sad that he died alone on his bus. The song still remains echoes in my head when I think of that day. Pick a flower, hold your breath and drift away....may his soul be at peace now. So glad I got to see him perform shortly before his death. I knew I would never see him again....I think we all knew.
I've never liked Sour Girl. The video is sort of cool and I love Sarah Michelle Gellar. But to me STP is Core. That's the album I love.However, when was this filmed?You say what I've thought a lot about. This amazing guy, Scott! So talented on so many Levels. He wrote amazing lyrics and had the an unique, great voice. Just listen to his Christmas Album. The guy really could sing! He also was talented on other Things. I remember Reading that everyrhing came easy for him. He could just pick up a skateboard and skate. He could put together some meat and a bbq, and it would be the best you'd ever tasted. Not to mention his looks. OMG!But inside he was a mess. And he had this romantic idea around heroin. All the great musicians used it. He also thought for a long, long time that there was something chemically wrong in his brain and that heroin was the one thing that made him normal. It SO sad!He fought this battle his whole adult life! He managed to kick heroin whitch is a huge thing! But he used cocaine, pills and alcohol. Benzo and alcohol was his biggest addiction as I sees it. He was that type of person who seemed to get addicted to things very easily. Beeing who he was he probably could get doctors to give what he wanted. I don't know if Scott ever was on Methadone, do you? But he used Suboxone. And probably most benzoes you could get. If he was on Ritaline and that sorts og medication is also unknown to me. But benzoes, alcohol and cocaine together with the antidepressives, bipolar meds and other medications for mental illnesses - poor poor guy :-/Even though he was married and wasn't alone, he seemed so sad the last years. There was no light in his eyes. Here he's awake, talks and are interested. From about 2010-2011 he seemd out of it more often than he seemed healty and awake :-/That Last Howard Stern inteview broke my heart. Tears were pooring Down my face. To see another human being that broken is horrible. Especially someone like Scott who used to be so alive, vibrant and amazingly charismatic!
As talented as he was, what happened with Scott is extremely heartbreaking, but the people that got hit the most was his family. As much as songs get written about drugs if you get lost in them it rarely turns out well. We did this interview back around 2000. Thanks so much for your thoughtful reply!
Agreed! As much as his fans feel a loss, It could never compare to those who knew and loved him. My heart broke for his mother when I first heard. Both of her sons died. I wouldn't know how to go on. I pray his children don't inherit the bipolar depression and substance abuse. Both he and Mary suffered from both.
I never thouth that because the last moment i saw him was on 2010. He was THE FRONTMAN. I remember go to the store to buy every album, one per month until i listen carefully ech one. Meanwhile i was on the highschool. The first time in saw Down on tv on muchmusic channel was the very first moment which in think OMG i wanna know everything about STP. Purple its my favorite álbum. But it's curious in front of the play he plays at Córdoba, Argentina, i bouth the stp box set near where he eat meat on a barbacue.
Shannon Hoon also overdosed and was found on their roadies tour bus bunk bed . His feet were sticking out of the curtains and were tickled before they found him deceased .😢
Scott being a creature of habit is a such a classic recovered addict thing. I’m six years clean from opiates and all my days are pretty much the same (and I love it!!). It’s a way to regain control when you’ve lived a life that used to have absolutely no control.
Grateful to hear you're doing well My brother nearly died from oxi.
Absolutely
But he never recovered
congrats on six years! keep at it :)
Sour Girl. Over and over on repeat.
Laura S I’ve been in the loop for a week now lol
hey! what-are-ya....LOOKIN' AT!
A masterpiece!
I like to remember Scott just like this. Smart, witty and seamingly so straight. The vibe inside the band was great at that moment.
Imagine if Scott stayed recovered and he became an advocate for drug crime and addiction reform. Seems like he's also passionate about prison and women's rights. Would've loved to see him do more music and get into political/social issues. I think he could've helped a lot of ppl. What we did get from him was a gift and I'll always wish for more.
Agree. Such a loss. He was so talented & intelligent. Too bad he couldn’t channel his energy and focus. Could have been so powerful who he might have helped and could get thru too. So sad
STP goes down in a flame of glory but still one of the best rock bands of our generation.
Scott seems in a really good place here. RIP
Best STP interview on UA-cam. Too bad Scott couldn't have stayed just like that.
It's crazy, every interview this band has had... you can tell it's always been the three as an entity and Scott separated from them. The body language, the interactions, he's just on his own island.
I noticed that too. When the power trio continued on as STP without Scott I thought on one hand it’s their prerogative but I was a little surprised by it too. Their body of work from core to Shangri- was and it goes without saying, excellent. Scott being one of rocks greatest frontmen, chief lyricist was such an integral part of STP that I considered him irreplaceable, much like Jim Morrison of the doors… I realize it’s off topic from your comment, but goes to show the three seemed to be without Scott even when they were with him.
@@carljohnson8732 Robert DeLeo is ultimately what makes STP the band it is.
@@franskoster9572 he did compose the harmony, but the fundamental that gaves the power of what was stp with scott, was Scott himself
It’s true. They were business men, he had the ego. He was the star, but they complimented him well.
@@franskoster9572 Scott was the Heart of the Band.
Best band of the last 30 years!
So many amazing songs, it's hard to choose just one. I have always loved, "Interstate Love Song" because it reminds me of the open road, and driving with the top down. The best driving song! R.I.P. Scott.
Totally! Couldn't stop humming their hits after we watched this interview. STP had a huge impact on our mixtapes back in the day.
Agreed 👍💯
Im not gonna be a douche and i cant tell you what the song reminds of or makes you think of or anything like that. I get you about thinking of the road and interstate and what not. But its about him lying to his wife and him imagining what she is thinking after he calls her while ON THE ROAD touring and probably just finished fixing.(shooting dope)
@@brandtsavoy6123 You’re not being a douche. I appreciate you telling me what the song is about. I never knew that. It really is a shame about Scott Weiland. Such a talented guy. I was lucky enough to see them in 2013. Only time.
@@mockingbirds1000 yea he was great. I saw them here in New Orleans right when they got back together. He was awesome. So good and they played almost 3 hours and had a bigger crowd than Manson, NIN, even lil wayne and Scott killed it
My favorite band ever. Became a fan as soon as I heard one of their song for the first time. Miss Scott so much
Hes sober here.. He was at the top of his game right here in this moment.
Soberish?
He wasn’t sober here. He had relapsed sadly during the second half of making number 4. But he had been sober for a while before this. Early in your run the drugs don’t show, it takes a year or two before the druggie archetype starts to manifest.
Simultaneously so nice but also so sad seeing Scott here. He was such an articulate and sharp guy- it's lovely seeing him so clear-eyed (so to speak) and conversational during this period.
Holy shit! These guys were born to play together. Born to know each other. And the emotional ride they rode. Born to turn those emotions into music that all of us can feel and appreciate. I was luckey enough to have seen them a couple times. Lol.. Great shows. 💯❤💯
Scott knew what he was saying!!! He’s such a gem here. ❤❤❤❤
Seven Caged Tigers is on my favorites from this group. Along with Trippin’ on a Hole. Tiny Music is their best record, in my opinion.
It is👍👍
I was saying the same thing until I started listening to Shangri-La Dee Da
“Wonderful”
“Too Cool Queenie”
“Regeneration”
“A Song for Sleeping”
Boy that's a tough call but Tiny Music was Scott's favorite.
They're all good but Core is my favorite. They seemed really raw at that time.
Is so difficult to choose one favourite, the purple record relaxme when i am in company of my mother and my dad and the sunshine are hitting strong; just beautiful times
I love the No. 4 hat! Scott always was a promoter, very driven to succeed. He even wrote a letter to a DJ when he was in jail, asking him to promote their singles for No. 4. (The guy put it online after Scott's death.) He even tried hard to promote Blaster, at first. To hear those last interviews when he's just zoned out, giving one-word answers when you know he would normally be out there promoting the album if he was well. It was tough to hear. If only he could have maintained the sobriety he has here... Sad. RIP Scott (This was a good interview. Thanks!)
Scott was a totally different human here; almost unrecognizeable versus the 2009 reunion and after.
18:55…the way Dean turned and looked at Scott….he seemed touched that Scott thought so fondly of those early days together
It's great to hear them talking about real quality music, real quality bands
Like Scott said its about the journey you guy’s were on! Remember the good not the bad.
Great interview, I loved Scott so much. He was such an excellent singer and front man. Totally underrated, plus he understood fashion and style, kinda like Perry Farrel but classier and grittier. RIP Scott! 🌹
Scott really seems verbal and very focused
Wow, Scott sounds absolutely lucid here. It's so wonderful to hear and see. His illness really robbed all of us of so many things: an amazing artist and a good person; his parents of a son; his wife a husband and his children a father; his bandmates an incomparable musician and outstanding frontman. Addiction is a very, very destructive disease. Hope he's now at peace. Thank you for posting this.
Carla Paola well said. It's so sad.
AGREE
Actually he's pretty doped up if you know what to look for,that's the clarity and focus that being on your drug of choice gives you..until you need so much your in your nodded out world,like the state he was in at the end, on a ego heroin binge,where he just couldn't feel the glide path to shadow realm he was sprinting toward but make no mistake he's high.
I adore "Core".
The entire album.
"Dead and bloted" and "Where the Rover goes" are absolutely my favourite.
If I should choose one STP Song that represents and speaks of me, I think it could be "Hello, it's late". I'm out of the games for many different reasons and aspects of life and living.
And often I'm sitting on tris fast and crazy merry-go-round and the music is too loud.
I try to turn it down, but I can't.
Miss Scott EVERY DAY. These are my four favorite humans, ever.
If only the warm and fuzzy feelings with each other would’ve lasted...
God. Bless you dear Scott wailand god bless you and many kisses to you in the heaven
Love ya STP!
NICE DAY FOR DAY FULL OF BREAKDOWNS!
It really is heart breaking watching videos of Scott when he was so sharp and healthy and watching him just go down and down. I met him after a show about 2 months before he passed away and there was nothing there. He was nice etc but every bit of the energy and spark you see in him in this clip was gone. I said to my wife after we met him "he seemed like a ghost" and as sad as I was to hear he died....I wasn't shocked in the least. Fuck drugs. That shit never ends well. (I've done my share too so I'm not pointing fingers...just grateful to have made it past all that garbage) STP are and will remain one of the greats
truly an awseome band and lovable people rip scott
Led Zeppelin will be always my favorite rock band from all the time, after them I put STP. When I started to listen STP (when I was 15) I just thought that this may be the last band that represents true rock for me, they always gave me the vives of the old rock bands. I think time just make justice with STP music at least for me, their music sound so refreshing compare with other grunge bands from the 90s and even today I still enjoy all their music, I recently started a tribute band with some friends so I was searching for videos of live performances and found this interview and just made me fell inspired to play their music.
So grateful to stumble upon this video. Love seeing the guys all together and talking about their music and lives. We miss you, Scotty.
Dean rocks!
Hola 👋
They were a well-oiled rock machine and at the top of the heap in 94-95, there has been nothing even close to this high quality of musicianship and writing in the last 25 years, all we consistantly have now is a surplus of crap flooding the airwaves as present-day so called music slips further and further into the rockstar wana be shitter.
Naw it's called getting old and that's what happens to people like you
Agree. The other commenter blew it off as age related, but I don’t think that has anything to do with it, or very little. I was born in ‘72, but that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy the great music from that era or earlier. Of course it’s all subjective, my own opinion is that there were great periods mixed in with so so ones or even worse. Take the 80’s. Early 80’s we’re great with post punk, the police, you had billy Joel still fairly young, billy idol, Springsteen, Van Halen, even Toto had a few great tunes. Somewhere in the middle glam rock / glam metal hair bands like Cinderella, poison, dokken, many spawned from evh as wanna be shredders produced a lot of crap. Guns & roses appetite was a breath of fresh air, then four years later nirvana in 91 immediately retired the glam bands ushering in a new creative period until arguably 96. Still, radio head and a few others kept rock afloat for awhile but there’s really been nothing for the last twenty plus years. Sure maybe one or two band since may have had a certain something, but no real talent rich era has existed for a long time.
@Anderson Cooper you were born in 94? How can that be? I’ve watched your show and forgive me for saying so, but your silver or rather white hair had me convinced you must be in your mid to late 50s. 🤣 Look, maybe there is a ton of great contemporary rock still being produced today. And I realize it’s common for every generation to act as though their youth produced the best era of music. I don’t exactly subscribe to that notion but maybe to a small extent. I was born in 72 and liked plenty of music from before then. Like everyone else I like what I like. As a guitarist I was most influenced by Alex Lifeson of Rush. Loved their material up until the early 80s when they like so many others incorporated heavier synth and that IMO digital crisp, cold and sterile sound. Around that time David Bowie was releasing garbage he would later describe as “his Phil Collins years”… I’m getting off topic now, so will just conclude with yeah I get what you’re saying. It’s all subjective anyway. What year in your opinion would be the greatest year of rock? For me I’d say 1967. Debut albums by Pink Floyd, the doors, Jimi Hendrix and Beatles sgt pepper. I’d be surprised if anything current comes close and even if I were living under a rock I’m sure I’d be aware of a great movement if it were taking place. I hated Phil Collins in the 80s, but you could not escape him. He was everywhere.
@Anderson Cooper Its all highly subjective, and often nostalgia driven: so yes, age plays a vital part. I much prefer 80s over 90s era, but as a college student/DJ of the 80s, music played a much more vital role in my life, hence the connection. Movements such as Grunge/Britpop , etc really defined the 90s more so the 80s, and as much as people claim Nirvana changed the industry, the lasting effect was relatively brief. Creed, Nickelback seemingly took over.
Really glad to come across this 👍🏼
it hurts much to see what these drugs to from the to the a total man I Scott Weiland Is Stone Temple Pilots He Can NOT BE REPLACED this how I feel
I pray scott is finally at peace
If there was only 1 song off this album to listen to... Atlanta! My opinion, the end of the great STP era is Atlanta . Last song on their last GREAT album.
Scott (RIP) will always be missed! Sucha great performer! Sucha trem band! I believe there's still someone out there for STP to carry the torch from Scott and Chester and be that front man and lead singer, seriously 👍👍
Scott is 100% nail on the coffin about radio airplay and what they throw down peoples throats.
I wont repeat what others said. I agree with all of it. What I want to add was i loved seeing his beautiful smile and hear him laugh. You're missed Scott. ❤❤ RIP.
🍀 Scott, buddy
loved their sound and Scott's voice, they seem well centered and down to earth here, too bad what happened down the road. The big bang baby video is 90s historical material, something about it gets me.
One of my favorite bands ever. Thier music was part of my life soundtrack growing up. I wish Scott was still with us but when I think of him no longer being with us half of me is saddened that he will never get the chance to walk his daughter down the Aisle and watch his son sing and enjoy life. The other half of me thinks 🤔 the memories of Scott rocking those stages saving and entertaining thousands of people and giving them an escape because life is difficult and Scott knew that all so well is how I want to remember him. I heard him just last night I was listening to a song that was live in the early Core days where someone threw a shoe at him or like a water bottle and Scott said "If you're going to throw shit at me throw some fire grass and some mushrooms or some blotter man" he just carried on rocking and the crowd just went nuts. That's the Scott that is very much alive and well when I play my stereo. #ForeverYoung
This has been my favorite band all my life and I've never seen this 'til now. That's cool that Pruno was brought up in this. Pruno and Atlanta are my favorite songs from that album. It was cool to hear him elaborate on the meaning of that lyric. The #4-Shang time was the peak of their career in my mind.
His explanation makes sense - I think he was referencing his offenses with the law with "one, two, three, I got another," and dealing with the fallout.
Epic ! Love this STP fucking class ! Legends ! RIP Scott rockgod
I love what Scott says at 13:01 about the then-current nu-metal and post grunge.
The best rock band of all time. Rip Weiland.
Interesting what Scott said about Jim Morrison I know he and David Bowie especially were two big influences of his
Scott was so wholesome man
greatest frickin' band ever, i knew it by the time 'talk show' was my favorite record- then came 'tiny music', and *wow*, man! life, it-ain't-real-*funky*, unless-it's-got-that-*pop*, DIG IT!
cd, not record, haha! this was now 1997!
Scott was so clear headed and intelligent here sad to see how drugs just ravaged his mind his interviews towards the end were hard to watch
Love Scott and stp saw them front row in 2001
"Heaven And Hot Rods"
What, no love for Eric? Love him!
Scott is SO smart. rip
When coherent, Scott was really a sharp guy...we see that in his lyrics as well. Really sucks that he succumbed to the dark side of fame.
Yeah if only Scott Weiland didnt do drugs in the first place, he could of survived :) god bless him :(
@@sonicjet7759 Fax. same goes to MJ and KC
Even when he’s was out of it, he was sharp with an impeccable memory.
Seeing how articulate and thoughtful Scott is here compared to his final interviews, you can't help but notice a cognitive decline. But even though illegal drugs can be risky, I think his bi-polar meds caused that. His wife even said so. He did still drink and do coke at the end, but if you listen to his Howard Stern interview from around 2010, he could hardly speak. He was so slow it seemed he had no emotion and could barely even think anymore. That wasn't his real self. He was heavily medicated and I think over-medicated. People fall asleep and nod out on heroin but they don't lose the ability to speak like a stroke victim. They medicated him to not be manic but I turned him into a zombie. I'm not defending hard drug use, but I think legal Rx drugs for his "bi-polar" was what made him lose his energy and charisma. So what if he was manic. That's how he wrote songs and had the power to play live for years. Leave him alone. You'll notice in the toxicology report after his death that they mentioned cocaine, MDA, alcohol and sleeping pills. They didn't mention his bipolar meds which could've been a major factor. They had him on antipsychotics for Christ's sake. It made him gain a ton of weight and lose his charisma. I don't know if it was Dr. Drew or somebody like him who treated Scott, but whoever it was deserves some of the blame. Yes, bi-polar is real, but he was overmedicated. The legal system also tore him down. Addiction is not good for you but putting somebody in prisons and psych. wards for partying is absurd. They should've let him have his coke and painkillers and left him alone. Those drugs have a dark side but he was so much more alive in those years. By 2008 he was done. He had no business being onstage but he loved music and needed the money. He clearly had brain damage from all the shit the doctors had him on. Fuck them. If he had stuck with heroin instead of Thorazine(or whatever they gave him) he would have been better off. That's the tragic irony. Fuck the leeches and the Celebrity doctors who all wanted a piece of him. He was brilliant and within 15 years nothing was left. Some of it is his fault obviously, but people used him. It's bullshit.
"but they don't lose the ability to speak like a stroke victim"....well, I mean, add drooling to this and you will surely see this in people who are actively using. Anti-psychotics, particularly those prescribed for major disorders, can have a "dulling" effect, and certainly you don't want to over-prescribe, but they're also time-released drugs. They work entirely differently than a narcotic. I guarantee you that in the last year or so of his life, he was not keeping up with his meds anyhow, and I feel the toxicology report simply reflected that. Extended heroin use changes your biochemistry, often permanently. Do it long enough, and you better believe you will suffer permanent cognitive damage. That's why it's so important that people stay the hell away from the stuff. I agree with every thing else you say here though.
most addicts die after they quit there drug of choice, if heroin was legal it would be a much better substitute to anti deppresants and downers and alcohol.
He definitely seemed more "with it" in the heroin years but the decline seemed to be due to a combination of the bipolar meds AND the alcoholism. Alcohol is incredibly destructive, mentally and physically. He was on bipolar meds in 2005 and he looked great, spoke great, moved great and had a terrific performance year. He was also sober. He may very well have been overmedicated but he was also in need of treatment for his alcoholism.
That's why I keep coming back to this interview. Because this is how I wanna remember him. Coherent and funny.
It only takes one bad hit of coke or heroin to kill you. Scott weiland could have died in 1993 like river Phoenix. Just starting out on drugs. But he didn't. He died slowly. Don't say we should just let people do heroin and coke. That's horrible. You can die from your first heroin shot. Everyone tried to help him. He is a rock legend.
10:00 They nailed it. Radio no longer breaks new bands sadly. 😕
Scott was a very cool dude.
His son will make it too.Great voice
Robert looks especially irritated! Its really sad to see from the outside a super-talented person struggling and deteriorating in itself but to experience it up and close like they did...…..obvious on the other 3 faces.
when he says “they weren’t just known for the color of their baseball cap” at 14:32, i wonder if that’s a reference to fred durst.
18:48 "that must of been awful"
Scott "NO it was actually amazing , alot ot fun"
Dean, realizes how Scott really felt
18:28 canned tuna tortillas tour .
Definitely one of my favorite bands with Scott. Their first five albums are excellent and all I really am interested in. I know they have gone on without Scott and its certainly their prerogative but I'm not interested in stp without weiland. Had the doors gone on after Morrison died same thing. I think for business reasons they wanted to keep the stp brand as their other projects talk show and art of rock or whatever they called it failed to really launch.
Scott seems so sober here.
@ 9:40. He's so correct. Radio plays what THEY want you to hear, and it's awful.
Se extraña a Scot Weiland!
“Or...um....jet fighters”
Hahahaha
How does that occur to somebody?
Uuuuuugh Scott, I miss you! I hate addiction...
You can tell this was in the brief period Scott got clean little after #4 they were on a do or die mission then. Shame drugs got in the way once again.
Robert's the man. He knows about the tortilla peanut butter and jelly.
Living fast and dying young has always been associated with rock. Scott lived a long time considering the way he lived. He did it all and did it his way. I read an article about Kurt Cobain and the writer stated he felt Kurt had really died at the perfect time to cement his legacy. His point being Kurt had pigeon-holed himself in a style that would have been a dead end with nowhere to go but to record a nevermind 2 or in utero 2. No one will ever know but as much as I admired Kurt I felt that way myself… Scott Weiland on the other hand and the power trio behind him, STP like Bowie were always able to move in new musical directions. Even Scott’s voice changed numerous times and unlike Bowie who played with many different guitarists and other musicians, STP maintained the same line up and that to me is even more impressive… I mean, imagine Robert Fripp on let’s dance instead of Stevie Ray Vaugne. It just wouldn’t have worked. Nothing against Bowie, but he had that advantage of something like 9 different guitarists over the years on his many albums.
Deans love for Scott is loud and awesome like all of them not sure Robert is thinking the same that day? No disrespect it was your lives..I know what you mean Scott…
Cheers STP
GOAT Frontmen
'They weren't just known for the color of their baseball caps.' When was this interview? Could he be referring to Fred Durst or someone? At any rate yes Weiland is much more animated and vibrant here than in some later interviews. R.I.P great man.
anyone know the year of this interview? the 2000 HOB show is one of my favorite performances ever.
Addiction is a bitch!
On what date was this interview conducted?
What year is the interview ?
Give Dean DeLeo a haircut you got Freddie Mercury!give it a close look👀
@14:33 Scott makes a barely veiled dig at Fred Durst
Love Interstate Love Song, reminds me of my addiction and how I lie to my wife about the money, the time spent away, od'ing and not giving a fuck about anything, missing thanksgiving, x-mas and just the total asshole I am in my dark times. R.I.P. Scott. Your imagination, voice and talent is truly missed!!
I love STP more now that Jeff is leading the vocals! Jeff is awesome!
no way scott woke up 7:30 every morning
To bad Scott couldn’t appreciate what he had in this band. He was lifted up
By them and they tried to help him. His Ego got in the way.
Bernstein Bear was it ego? Hum... I thought maybe he did appreciate them, but his drug issues made it difficult for them to work with him, all though I know they tried to help him... but did they try hard enough?! I think no one did really. Drug addicts are a pain to deal with.... but if you love them, you don’t ever ever give up
Pretty sure it was his addiction, not
his ego
Scott "you know" Weiland
Weird to see Scott throwing shade at Fred & Limp Bizkit since Scott helped LB in the studio recording Significant Other.
