Cocaine Found on Weiland’s Tour Bus

In their heyday, Stone Temple Pilots were best when flexing more Smiths than Seattle in their sound, cumulating in the band’s unheralded third album, Tiny Music…Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop. Police are now investigation Weiland’s death.

Weiland’s cause of death has not yet been determined. According to his LinkedIn profile, Black is also the manager of the Los Angeles club/venue the Viper Room, a position he’s held since 2002.

All of our love and respect.

Scott Weiland and the Wildabouts were scheduled to perform on Thursday at the Medina Inn, about 20 miles (32 km) northwest of Bloomington, but the show was canceled, the venue said on its website.

The Stone Temple Pilots eventually reunited in 2008. Among that group’s hits was “Fall to Pieces” and “Slither”, which won the Grammy for best hard rock performance. He did not provide further details but referenced a statement on Weiland’s Facebook page.

Born Scott Richard Kline in San Jose, California, he rose to prominence as the lead singer of grunge rock band Stone Temple Pilots in the 1990s, which he had formed with brothers Robert and Dean DeLeo.

TMZ reported that Weiland “famously battled substance abuse for years”.

Scott Weiland was the quintessential rock star in both the positive and negative connotations of that term.

But the group split again in 2013.

Tragedy had already struck The Wildabouts earlier this year when they lost another bandmate, guitarist Jeremy Brown in March at the age of 34.

“Black, age 47, from Studio City, CA was placed under arrest for Probable Cause Felony 5th Degree Possession of a Controlled Substance”.

Later on in his eulogy, Corgan said, “I’d like to share a thought which though clumsy, I hope would please Scott In Hominum”. Carolyn Marinan, a county spokeswoman, said she had no information on when that would be announced.
