Scott Weiland (born Scott Richard Kline on October 27, 1967) is an American musician, lyricist, and vocalist, most notably known for his work with Grammy Award-winning American rock band Stone Temple Pilots (STP), and also for his four-year career with Velvet Revolver. After a five-year hiatus, the STP reunion tour kicked off at the Rock on the Range festival in May 2008[1]. He was the frontman of the Grammy Award-winning supergroup Velvet Revolver during his time away from STP, but parted ways with the band on April 1, 2008. Weiland's split from Velvet Revolver also led to his departure from his side-project band Camp Freddy. Weiland's second solo album, Happy In Galoshes, will be released on November 25, 2008. He is well known for his flamboyant and energetic onstage persona and for constantly changing his appearance and vocal style.[2] Weiland's career has been infamously plagued with heroin addiction, as well as several arrests. However, according to MTV News, Weiland has been free from heroin since December 5, 2002
