Scott Weiland bitch slaps Axl Rose
Rock music has been kind of boring lately. Perhaps the return of Axl Rose and his new version of Guns 'N Roses will bring back some of that rock star swagger and bad boy attitude. Or, maybe some aging rock stars will squawk at each other like little girls? After Axl exchanged lawsuits with former Guns bandmate Slash, Scott Weiland is helping to stir the pot.
The Velvet Revolver frontman reportedly called Axl a "'Fat, Botox-Faced, Wig-Wearin' F*ck.' Scott's rage is apparently in response to a rumored "meeting" between Axl and Slash after which Axl supposedly tattled:
"that Slash tore into his current bandmates in VELVET REVOLVER, calling singer Weiland a "fraud," saying that he "hates" drummer Matt Sorum and describing bassist Duff McKagan as "spineless."
Scott's response is posted on Velvet-Revolver's website:
Get in the rin[g.] Go to the gym motherfucker, or if you prefer, get a new wig motherfucker. I think I'll resist the urge to "stoop" to your level. Oh shit, here it comes, you fat, botox faced, wig wearin' fuck! O.K. I feel better now. Don't think for a second we don’t know where those words came from. Your unoriginal, uncreative little mind, the same mind that had to rely on its bandmates to write melodies and lyrics. Who's the fraud now bitch? Damn, I couldn't imagine people writing for me. How many albums have you put out man and how long did it take the current configuration of this so-called "band" to make this album? How long? And without the only guys that validated the name. How dare you! Shame on you! How dare you call our bass player "spineless." We toured our album over a year and a half. How many shows have you played over the last ten years? Oh, that's right - you bailed out on your long awaited comeback tour, leaving your remaining fans feeling shall we say a trifle miffed?! I won't even list what I've accomplished because I don't need to. What we're talking about here is a frightened little man who once thought he was king, but unfortunately this king without his court is nothing but a memory of the asshole he once was.
Can a drunken Sunset Strip brawl between these two be far behind? We can only hope.

Here it is from the official 'VR' site. Get in the rin! Scotty couldn't even complete his first typed sentence (rockers have computers?) before the outrage overtook him. But first go back and find Underline and Crossout from the Word processing menu. OK, now let's continue...go to the gym, get a new wig, M-F#%KER! And check out the other post where Scott describes the next VR release as, you guessed it...a CONCEPT ALBUM! But Duff's not so sure... I tell ya, these guys are funnier than The Upper Crust and Electric Six combined.
