Scott Weiland, formerly of Stone Temple Pilots and currently of the very forgettable Velvet Revolver, has been on my shit list for a few weeks now for messing with David Lee Roth.

Apparently, Scott and the rest of Velvet Revolver, aka “Ellis Island for wayward Guns ‘n’ Roses members,” were the reason why David Lee Roth skipped his rightful Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony. Velvet Revolver refused to back Van Halen in a scheduled performance, so Roth and Alex Van Halen chose to skip the ceremony.

Now Scott is making more headlines for trashing a hotel room with his wife during an alleged violent argument:

Rocker Scott Weiland and his wife Mary have been caught up in a Burbank, California hotel controversy after allegedly trashing their suite. Weiland and his partner reportedly ripped alarm clocks and phones from their sockets and threw them across the room and made “dents and gauges” in the walls.

This fight reportedly occurred in front of the couple’s two children, ages 4 and 6, and as a result, staff at the hotel found bloody towels at the scene. After the family was kicked out of the hotel, Mary departed towards the family’s Toluca Lake, CA home and proceeded to do the classy thing – she torched Scott’s entire wardrobe, which he stated was worth $10,000. Mary was arrested, and the children are in custody of family friends. Hopefully, that’s where they shall stay for the forseeable future.

Obviously, wifey has several screws missing, but Scott isn’t exactly a choirboy either. In 2001, Scott pleaded guilty to domestic violence charges against Mary, and in a VH1 interview, Scott has admitted that he suffers from untreated mental illness:

“I suffer from manic-depressive disorder, and I’ve chosen not to take medication for it.”

The likely explanation for Scott’s abstinence from medication is probably because when he takes Lithium, his dick won’t get hard, so he chooses to go off his meds and “be a man.” Nice display of masculinity, asshole.and
