Scott Weiland is probably the greatest man alive right now. "Guitar Hero" Slash. Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
I call bullshit on that, Scott said what he said and the rest of the band freaked. As much as I wanna support Scott though, Slash seems to be the more down to earth, decent bloke in this... Funny reading the comments on who people wanna see as VR's new singer. Everyone wants Chris Cornell, Mike Patton, Sebastian Bach or Chester Bennington. Good luck with that...
The thing that I don't like about all of this is that Scott Weiland has pissed everything he had with the band away. When he joined VR he became sober and the band were enjoying their time with each other but Scott has fucked up and now he's throwing a tantrum about it trying to claim that it's not his fault. It is his fucking fault. If he doesn't have the willpower to get of drugs then that's his problem. It's the first sign of an arrogant prick when someone tries to blame others for their faults. I've always disliked him to be honest. His post-performance interview at Live 8 made me want to punch him.
He's not the only one of them with drug trouble by the sounds of things though... They're auditioning new singers online, articles on Ultimate Guitar. Could be interesting...
