Photos - Stone Temple Pilots

I think it's pretty lousy to say that Scott Weiland looks "wobbly" in these photos. I looked at all the photos and he looks very on top of his game! His eyes don't look half-mast as is usual with people using heroin, nor does he look sluggish. He looks very alive, animated and quite in control of himself. I think it's very low to be bagging on his about his fight with addiction. I know you're just a low-rent entertainment rag, but even you can show some decency when it comes to a person's addiction.

i think when your band reforms not for any musical reason but as a blatant grab for cash then your claims for decency and respect are diminished somewhat. And I very much disagree that he looks on top of his game. He certainly looks better than he has in recent years but fact is the guy's ravaged from addiction. And it has undoubtedly affected his performance. Here's one from a couple of weeks ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryHggERCJGA - Hardly electrifying. And here's a grab from blabbermouth.net about the recent tour: "As previously reported, STONE TEMPLE PILOTS singer Scott Weiland ranted incoherently between songs, forgot lyrics and fell backward into Eric Kretz's drum kit at one point during the band's show on July 30 at the Dodge Theatre in Phoenix, Arizona. According to a review by The Arizona Republic, Weiland came onstage and muttered something about STP and his previous band, VELVET REVOLVER, before the rest of the PILOTS had taken the stage. About a minute and a half into opening number "Big Empty", Weiland walked backward until he fell into the front of the drums. The rest of the group — Kretz, guitarist Dean DeLeo and bassist Robert DeLeo — started playing several times throughout the set to cut off Weiland's continued comments between songs. STONE TEMPLE PILOTS launched a 65-date reunion tour earlier this spring, but Weiland's performances have been inconsistent throughout the trek so far, with the singer showing up more than an hour late for several shows and displaying erratic behavior onstage. He was dismissed from VELVET REVOLVER for behavior issues in April and spent a month in rehab shortly before that. Weiland's drug problems derailed STP's career in the '90s but he was supposedly clean and sober from 2003 until his latest stint in rehab. "
