The guy had a lot of talent but it seems his drug issues were in the news all the way back to the early 1990s. They haven't given a cause of death but unfortunately we've seen this happen too many times before.
That's crazy, he had a show booked at Diamond ballroom (OKC) this month. That's too bad, I liked the majority of the stuff he did throughout his career.
One of my fondest memories from high school (and there aren't many), was going to see Stone Temple Pilots along with Flaming Lips and Butthole Surfers at Mohawk Park in Tulsa in August of 1993.
Got home soaking wet and covered in mud (they had the hoses going for the whole show since it was outdoors) and in a slightly altered state of consciousness.
Yup, child of the 90s here. Core, Purple, and Vatican Gift Shop were jammed frequently in the ride in high school. I haven't listened to any of their newer stuff, yet.
For those that were at OSU around the turn of the century, did anything kick more ass than R-Kane's cover of Sex Type Thing every Wednesday night at Willie's?
R-Kane was awesome. The only band you could see on the strip that I could stomach. So much better than hearing the same 7 red dirt songs every night for 5 years.

I've been listening to STP like crazy and ran across this. I hadn't seen it before. He put a whole album of Christmas music.This guy was so talented. What a waste.
This is one of my favorite unplugged performances.
I read a very sad statement from his wife .. Something along the lines of "Are family appreciates the thoughts, we did not lose Scott yesterday, we lost him a long time ago. Yesterday we lost hope"
