Former frontman for the Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver, Scott Weiland, has died. He was only 48-years-old. The singer’s manager, Tom Vitorino, confirmed the death and did not provide further details, but referenced a statement on Weiland’s Facebook page. The statement said Weiland, who was dogged by substance abuse problems throughout his career, passed away in his sleep while on a tour stop in Bloomington, Minnesota. Scott Weiland’s current band, Scott Weiland & the Wildabouts, was scheduled to play at a Medina, Minnesota, concert venue. The website shows the event as cancelled.
