• STP Fans May Not Like New Scott Weiland Album
If you’re a Stone Temple Pilots fan, you may not like Scott Weiland’s new solo album, at least that’s what Scott says. According to RollingStone.com, the STP singer says Happy in Galoshes is not a record he worries about getting radio play. He tells the outlet that the CD chronicles his tumultuous relationship with his wife, Mary.
Scott was arrested on domestic violence charges back in 2001 and Mary was put in cuffs in 2007 for lighting his clothes on fire. Weiland says, “It may turn off some STP fans. That’s just the way it is. At my age, I just do what I wanna do. There’s art and there’s commerce, and I’ve already accomplished the commerce part of my career.”
