Former frontman of Stone Temple Pilots and infamous rocknroller Scott Weiland has announced the cancellation of all his UK and Europe concerts, apart from one show in London on September 3rd.
The 47 year old is touring with his band The Wildabouts in support of his latest album Blaster. The album received mixed reviews (55/100 on metacritic) and performed badly in sales.
The announcement was made on Weiland’s Facebook page, it read, ‘We regret to announce at this time that Scott Weiland & The Wildabouts will not be able to perform the upcoming UK and European dates tour dates scheduled for September/October 2015 with the exception of the show in London at The Garage on Sept 3rd which will stay in place.
Scott and the band, along with management want the fans to know that this decision was not made lightly, but as it stood, the tour dates had far too many administration and production issues to overcome, and ultimately the fan experience would have been far below what Scott feels his loyal fans deserve.
Again, we apologize to our fans and appreciate their understanding in this matter.’
Weiland has endured a turbulent career, with his admirable and successful stint in Velvet Revolver imploding due to issues over drug use.
The September show at The Garage, London was originally scheduled for earlier this year but was postponed by the death of the band’s guitarist, Jeremy Brown.
