In a surprise announcement, Stone Temple Pilots lead singer Jeff Gutt quits the band and they replaced him with the late Scott Weiland. You heard that right. Scott Weiland is back in the band. Well, sort of.
The DeLeo brothers stated…”It was actually Gutt’s idea. Jeff couldn’t take the pressure anymore of living in Weiland’s shadows. As he quit, he screamed at us..”why don’t you just dig Scott up and let him be your lead singer again. That’s what your asshole fan’s want anyway”. So, we did!!”
Late one night, they went out to Weiland’s grave and dug up his bag of bones…
And for some reason, they stole the headstone too.
In the weeks that followed, they worked with Scott’s skeleton and got him back in to shape for singing. Drummer, Eric Kreitz stated, “It was really a difficult time for Scott. He was having trouble getting his bones to move in that old Weiland swagger, but eventually he found his groove.”
Below, we have an exclusive leaked photo of Weiland on stage all dressed up for rehearsals and he looks great…
And later in the show, for some reason he takes all his clothes off…but he still has the megaphone…
The band has announced a surprise show for tonight, April 1st 2020…That is right…APRIL FOOL’S!!!! As if you didn’t know already.
Wow! Bold move. April 1st 2020, a date that will live in musical history forever. On my way to Seattle to dig up Hendrix!
