This is, obviously, yet another storied chapter in the tale of Weiland's illustrious career. Whether it's discussing his megastar work with STP – a relationship which has fallen on horribly hard times (i.e., the aforementioned legal trouble) currently – or the Velvet Revolver supergroup era, Weiland has – without a doubt – shown the highest degree of versatility of any almost any frontman in modern music history. Furthermore, his rockstar status and behavior – drugs, former marriages, infighting with bandmates – seems to be a thing of the relative past. But that doesn't mean he's forgotten where he's come from, or how things used to be when compared to the vastly different musical landscape of 2013.

これがウェイランドの輝かしいキャリア譚に、新たな章として書き加えられることは明白である。 STPでのメガスターとしての詳述、そして悲惨な形で崩れた関係となって辛い時期(即ち前述の法的なトラブル)を迎えた今、ヴェルヴェット・リヴォルヴァーでのスーパーグループ時代、ウェイランドは紛れもなく、現代音楽史におけるフロントマンとしては、他の追従を許さぬ程レベルの高い多才さを見せてくれているのだ。更に言えば彼のロックスターとしての地位と挙動、ドラッグ、数回の結婚、バンド内での揉め事、こうしたことは、この世界では典型例を為すものだ。かと言って、これが彼の成り立ち及び功績を雲散霧消することにはならない。2013年の音楽シーンは、その頃とは全くの別世界であるのだから。

    Ex-STONE TEMPLE PILOTS singer Scott Weiland has apologized to the group's fans who are "caught in the middle" of his very public legal battle with his former bandmates. STP fired Weiland earlier this year and recruited LINKIN PARK's Chester Bennington to take over. The group sued Weiland in May, accusing him of using the band's name to advance his solo career, while claiming that his poor performances, late arrivals, and addiction struggles harmed the band's career. Weiland has countersued, claiming that the band cannot use the STONE TEMPLE PILOTS name without him.

    Weiland also has his own issues with his former mates as he feels their continuance with Chester Bennington as a lead vocalist also violates the aforementioned legal documents. Both sides currently have suits against each other trying to decide who has the rights to perform the music and use the name. As for the solo tour, Weiland kicks things off on the West Coast with a two-night stand at the Viper Room in West Hollywood, Calif. Aug. 2 and 3. The trek runs through an Aug. 24 finale in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Weiland and the Wildabouts recently concluded their spring leg of dates and the vocalist will spend a majority of the summer with his new bride as they enjoy their first few months of marriage. ※『Scott Weiland』『Chester Bennington』は人物名、『Stone Temple Pilots』『the Wildabouts』はバンド名、『the Viper Room』はナイトクラブ名です。

    Though he's not technically on "hiatus" from Stone Temple Pilots (he was "fired", sued, then countersued, was replaced by Linkin Park vocalist Chester Bennington and is now smack-dab in the middle of a messy divorce with his former bandmates – though he doesn't come across as bitter even slightly while discussing the past and the times he shared with his former co-workers), it's safe to say Weiland has moved on, both as a person and as an artist. "It's very liberating," Weiland describes of his work with The Wildabouts. "It's cool, the majority of us have similar influences musically – not a lot of arguing what direction to take a song."

    Weiland also said, "There's a band agreement, a band contract agreement. They didn't follow the rules that were set down . . . for any member. There has to be a reason for letting go a member; you have to give them a certain period of time to do whatever different you want them to do." STP fired Weiland last February and sued him for hindering the group's career through his own behavior as well as by playing STP material on his solo tours. Weiland countersued based on his claims about the band name.

    Brian Kramp's "Kramp Cast" podcast on OnMilwaukee.com recently conducted an interview with former STONE TEMPLE PILOTS and VELVET REVOLVER singer Scott Weiland. You can now listen to the chat using the audio player below. According to The Pulse Of Radio, Weiland has a simple solution to the legal battle brewing between him and his ex-bandmates: he wants them to buy out his stake in the group. Speaking with a Florida radio station, Weiland continued to insist that STP cannot use the band name without all four original members in the lineup, saying, "They can't use the name with me not being in the band without us coming to an agreement. They'll have to buy me out of the company because I have major value in the company and in the brand. The lawyers will deal with it."

    Scott Weiland is extending his ‘Purple at the Core’ tour dates into the late summer. The rocker, who has been on the road for most of the year with his solo band the Wildabouts, will continue to perform music from Stone Temple Pilots two most successful records — ‘Core’ and ‘Purple.’ His continuing usage of Stone Temple Pilots music in his shows has been a thorn in the side of his former bandmates, who sued Weiland earlier this spring. They claimed that he sabotaged the band's attempts at a 20th anniversary tour in support of the ‘Core’ record and was trying to gain all the glory by scheduling his own dates singing the songs from the record. They also claimed that doing so violated a legal agreement the band had signed about the best interest of the band. ※『Scott Weiland』は人物名、『Stone Temple Pilots』『the Wildabouts』はバンド名、『Core』『Purple』はアルバム名です。

    Years ago Weiland and Patrick were friends, bonding on the Family Values Tour over a decade ago. Patrick went on to perform in the short lived supergroup Army of Anyone with the DeLeo brothers from 2005-2007. Weiland has admitted to struggling with alcoholism in the last 5-6 years after a few years of being clean and sober. Patrick had his own struggles with drugs and alcohol in the past, but he has been clean and sober for nearly 11 years. ※ 『Filter』『Army of Anyone』はバンド名で、『Richard Patrick』『Scott Weiland』は人物名です。

    Former STP frontman Scott Weiland just recently embarked on the second leg of his “Purple at the Core” tour with his solo band, The Wildabouts. He recently had the chance to chat with Alan Sculley of HamptonRoads to reminiscence on STP's early days and provide a hint at what's to come for his solo career. When inquired about the band's disparate recording of their 2010 reunion album, Weiland said “No, we weren't hanging out much.” He noted that life in the band changed after the release of “Purple” in 1994. “That's kind of when it stopped. We were all chummy and all that up until then.”

    With the future of STP up in the air, Weiland seems to be having a hoot revisiting his past. As evidenced by this early stop on the Purple at the Core tour, his fans are right there with him. ※ 『Stone Temple Pilots(STP)』はアーティスト名、『Scott Weiland』は人物名です。
