(antiMusic) We now have an idea of the "health issue" that caused Velvet Revolver to pull the plug on their tour Down Under. Seems their frontman had a bit of a run in with the law. Here is the report from the Metal Underground: According to TMZ.com, VELVET REVOLVER singer Scott Weiland was arrested for DUI (Driving Under the Influence) late last month.
The former STONE TEMPLE PILOTS frontman was driving on an L.A. highway around 6:15 PM on November 21 when he crashed his car. While the California Highway Patrol was investigating the non-injury wreck, they noticed Weiland appeared to be impaired. According to the police report, Weiland failed sobriety tests and refused to take a blood or urine test. He was booked for "driving under the influence of a drug." He was released on $40,000 bail and will be back in court on December 13. [According to AP Weiland's publicist says the singer was involved in a "minor accident," but denies he was impaired at the time of the crash.] - more on this story
