99.9% of the time when a 48 y/o dies that didn't have a terminal disease of sorts you're shocked, I don't think anyone was shocked by this. Tragic nonetheless, R.I.P. Scott.

two words from that article sum this up.. "Addiction sucks"

"I am smellin' like the rose
that somebody gave me on
my birthday deathbed
I am smellin' like the rose
that somebody gave me
'cause I'm dead & bloated"

RIP

Not surprising at all, but still a bummer.

The definition of a Rockstar and Frontman.

Drugs are bad.

 

[NorthWillRiseAgain]

not surprising, but always rough at 48.

One of the first major concerts I ever saw in Omaha, wasn't a huge fan but was there with the Butthole Surfers. I've probably seen two or three hundred concerts at this point but I still have pretty vivid memories of that one.

I use google news, and if you look up certain people on it, somehow it starts to track them every day, and add stories to google news about them.....

so I looked up scott a few years ago wondering if he ever got straight...

so yesterday I get newstory of scott saying F%#* Islam.
and this morning I got a news story that scott is dead.

I just found it funny..

but Lord be with him, he was a talented singer, when he wasen't all strung out.

drugs are a dead end.

 

[GaRed]

He loved the Horse didn't he ?

I saw them years ago at Rockfest locally. Scott was recently out of prison, and he was a total douche. He got mad and started threatening to rape some dude in the crowd. He proudly stated he just got out of prison. He looked like he could hoola hoop through a cheerio at the time. He then proceeded to sing like crap the rest of the show and they cut their set really short. Luckily 311 played right after them.

He recently played CB with his garage band STP cover band. I heard they sucked, and then read how a bunch of their shows were total crap. I said to a friend if he lives through the year, he would probably be a good pick for somebodys dead pool next year. I guess I was right, except he didn't make it through the current year. What a waste of talent.

Keith Richards is still alive.....

He should get a guest appearance on The Walking Dead.

I thought grunge was one of the worst things to happen to music...because it spawned hundreds of the worst bands ever known to mankind...post-grunge bands. But I actually liked a few of STPs song. Interstate Love Song and Big Bang Baby were decent songs.

Not surprising at all, but still a bummer.

My thoughts exactly. I read this the other morning and I'm like WTF?! Not surprised in the least. Heroine is a mother. Just don't try it.
