Scott Weiland Not Optimistic on Stone Temple Pilots Future
Nov. 24, 2008 – Scott Weiland is not too happy with Stone Temple Pilots’ old label Atlantic and while talking to Billboard magazine he hinted that it could cut the band reunion short. "I don't know how things are going to go with STP. It was sad to find out that we're still in some way locked into a contract with Atlantic Records, which is a travesty, actually. When we signed to them it was a great label. It was a beautiful time in music. Now if you say, 'We're going to do this song as the first single,' they go, 'OK, we're going to do some radio testing.'

Weiland’s solo album ‘Happy in Galoshes’ is in stores on tomorrow and though he says he was first optimistic about a future with his old band he’s not too sure now. "When we first talked about putting STP back together, it was, 'Do this tour and then see about doing a creative deal with another company.' So if it ends up being we have to make a certain amount of records for Atlantic in order to be free, then I don't know if I have that in me."  We say it will still happen. Contracts can be re-written and though Stone Temple Pilots were never known as diplomats, especially Weiland, money talks in this case. - By Kari Graham

RCA to Drop Velvet Revolver?
Nov. 19, 2008 – Word is leaking from the Sony/BMG label that RCA plans to drop the super group Velvet Revolver. The band features former Guns 'N' Roses members Slash, Duff McKagan and Matt Sorum. Stone Temple Pilots lead singer Scott Weiland was Revolvers main voice until he was kicked out. Top prospects to replace him are ex-Skid Row singer Sebastian Bach, ex-Spacehog vocalist Royston Langdon and former MTV VJ Steve Isaacs.

Velvet Revolver came out with a bang with their debut ‘Contraband’ in 2004 – it sold 1.98 Million in the U.S. The follow-up, ‘Libertad’ had luke-warm sales topping off at 301,000 since being released in July 2007.

So, will the band be dumped? It's hard to imagine but we'll stay on it. - More
