    Lots of talk about his drug addiction, but none about him being bipolar. "Getting your shit together" is not easy to do when you're bipolar.

    I read on Twitter that Wolfmother is playing a free STP show.

    Does anyone know of this?

    If you're "not surprised" why do feel the need to say that you're not surprised? I mean, it's one thing to feel that way, but I don't know why everyone feels the need to announce that they feel that way. Yes, we all know Scott struggled with demons. It would be more respectful to talk positively about how he & his music impacted your life and leave it at that.

    Hey one person posted this, but Shangri la dee da is a great album. Underrated. Most people cite Core and Purple but they kept writing some good music. Shangri had 4-5 great songs and a bunch of other good songs.

    I actually love Tiny Music and No. 4. Both way underrated.

    Andrew Stockdale said it. "Free show tilt of the hat Wolfmother/STP gig at the Northern Byron Bay".

    Was it just a heart condition, or a heart condition brought on by addiction? I always thought his brother also had those issues.

    that may have been me, i did post something like that in another thread. i do think shangri la is underrated although i do think their previous albums were better, that one flew under the radar.

    their self titled album was ok. i only dug a handful of songs.

    i guess i'm like a lot of people here... We all kind of "saw this coming", but we've been"seeing this coming" for 20 years. I think, myself, at least, I thought that he had made it so long without it actually happening, that maybe it wouldn't.

    I was lucky enough to see him a few times with STP and once with Velvet Revolver and he never let down. Great frontman with a very distinctive stage presence. It's too bad we'll never get to see him perform again, I loved his work.

    Makes you appreciate those from the 90's still around like Vedder and Cornell...lost so many from that era...I stopped following Weiland musically for awhile, but got into VVR, for the most part would listen here and there but always rooted for him to get it together, but after seeing videos of him messed up while performing I feared this ending...RIP

    Listening to Blaster today. Man, what a great record. Scott had SO much more music in him too.
