SCOTT WEILAND & The Wildabouts Live Nanaimo, B C by Gene Greenwood

[@eriksoley6774]

Artistically he was doing great. Solid new band, good album and touring. It is not all tragic, I think he proved he was a force on his own. So I actually respect his final years.

[@hunterwest54]

Me too brother. That last album is awesome!

[@badgercentralist]

I will check it out based upon your comment. I love Scott Weiland. But I saw a 2015 recording where he wasn't too well. It was upsetting. He had demons, but he tried to power thru. He has a fucking great history on tape, on cd on vinyl, on video, on DVD, on Blu-ray. Who else can say that's their legacy? Not you reading this. Nor me writing this x

[@daveyboy8907]

​@ChewieCharles the album Blaster is a great album..He went out with a good one.

[@frantanovotny7876]

Drugs killed him, that just makes me sad.

[@pf100andahalf]

Scott isn't at his best here, but at his worst he's better than just about anybody. His death is such a tragedy. I wish he could have gotten it together. RIP Scott.

[@ballantine58]

Same here. He seemed to have a big heart.

[@spades077]

Can’t believe they did sucker train blues. Such a badass opening song when with velvet revolver. He wrote so many awesome hits. He is struggling with this song though. He used to be on top of the world and think his best singing besides core was with velvet revolver. He was so much more energetic with that band. I hate knowing I could have seen them live but didn’t go for some reason I can’t remember. Rip to the best frontman!!

[@leeklibingat]

Say what you want about Scott, I was front row of this show and they kicked ass.

[@gloriamorrison853]

He always did

he sounded healthy and happy here ... breaks my heart to watch it...

[@crtv1337]

He actually seems like dying here, awful concert. Yes, we know he's a drug-machine with no-brain screams, so what, is this an alibi for bad singing? Like alcohol is an alibi for a broken car?

[@guyfaux900]

I can't believe he was playing so close.

Rest in peace Scott 😔 you will be missed so much

[@fredkiesel8206]

This is the first time I've commented on youtube in years, I feel the need to show some support. These guys are a tight unit. Scott's amazing, he's always had his heart vested in his music, and I'll always support him because he's one of the most talented human beings on the planet. I don't care if his voice cracks a little, everyone has their "off" days. I believe the new album with the Wildabouts will be very good (has Scott ever been a part of a less than stellar album, after all?), and I don't believe that Scott's done inspiring people, certainly not me. People generally prefer stories of success, so I think there'll continue to be support out there for Weiland. People are rooting for him. He's a classy, quality artist. And he might not sing perfectly every time, but he's irreplaceable.

[@Sziszy72]

Thanks Gene Greenwood! Scott at his best!!! This is how I saw Scott perform twice. He was happy and funny and enjoyed the whole night! Don't care what people say about him, he had the best rock voice in my opinion. He could do anything and anybody when he was in the mood. I think lately he loved smaller, more intimate places. He loved David Bowie and his songs as well, he made sure he did his best when he performed them. Awesome show, you lucky you were there.

[@gloriamorrison853]

Oh Scott how I miss you 💋

[@SamuelWeikath10]

Me too

[@sfgiantstorture]

I don't know why anyone expects his voice to sound like it did on a record made 22 years ago. No one sounds the same after two decades of just normal speaking, let alone singing and screaming on a regular basis. Honestly this is better than I was expecting.

[@brianwalendy3735]

Neil Young.

[@jessecanty7367]

And not only age but smoking and hard drugs.. bottom line.. Scott Weiland and Layne staley are the best of late 80s through 2000s on vocals hands down. Nobody can do what these two musical machines did period.

[@mattheweggers903]

True , some of us can sound the same 30 years after and even better now!!!!!! Love Scotty and r.i.p buddy , but he was no longer good enough for a band like stp. Maybe a bar cover band but that was pushing it

[@guyfaux900]

The guy was a Workhorse you got to respect that. It's no easy task trying to be a non practacing Junkie. You can really tell he's a professional the way he handles things. Very classy to the audience.

[@johncenax]

@@jessecanty7367chris cornell too

[@lisapyles2596]

He still sounds good. He is was an amazing musician and lyricist. My favorite to date.

[@almostsk8terjamie]

My ears became happy when Jeremy picked up the Gibson around the half way point!!! RIP Scott and Jeremy! Kids don't do drugs man, just don't do it man. The first time is the beginning of the end!, some make it longer than others! Much Love and respect to Scott and Jeremy! also, everyone remember Lane and Kurt!!

[@michaelkoudis595]

I enjoyed this video. Scott and the band sound so comfortable and sober...almost impossible to achieve such a level of excellence with so little regard for perfection and focus on being and sounding natural. There's no greater beauty found than in nature. I wish I was there to hear the live nuances that video merely hint of.

[@hunterwest54]

Yes sir! Great comment. If it sounds this good on video here in this small room.. my goodness that show must've been incredible

I loved that Scott really gives it his all during the show, he sings from the heart no matter it being an older song or a cover. Would be sick if he performs some songs from 12 Bar blues at the upcoming shows, he's got so much material to choose from. Scott you are still the man, just take care of yourself.!!!!!!!!

[@GG-ju5mi]

Awesome Scott Live in a Bar on Vancouver Island... It's rad to see yer favs up close!! The Best time I saw Scott was on the CORE TOUR in 1993 (Saw em Twice on that Tour), The Flaming Lips opened one of the show's and had so much shit thrown at them I "ALMOST" felt sorry for them. Man STP were on fire on the CORE Tour, remember this is just before they got all the money and went hard (Well Scott) it's sad he's gone but he left his mark like LENNON, COBAIN, CORNELL etc.

[@TheVegasDawg]

Greatest United States of America rock 'n roll album of my lifetime. Cheers

[@checkurbrainfly]

I'm going to see Scott at the Troubador next week sold out show , I want to support him & I'm glad he's doin' well, I hope his voice is strong and have an amazing show to enjoy,keep getting stronger Scott we'll be there to send good vibes .

Not a Song from no 4, shrangri la dee da and his last two solo adventures... Kind a sad, that the track list is somehow too short, given the versatility this man had...

[@milestoad325]

@@thomasfeldner603 As he was with a much smaller group, probably the events and venues weren't able to make very extensive setlists, and for a number of 12 songs for a small group and due to Scott Weiland's age and physical condition, it's actually a good setlist, even Velvet Revolver entered the setlist.

[@DarlingPhenylethylamine]

I didn't know I'd been on this video before, but evidently I have a few months ago from my comments below and thumbs up for the video. I want to say thanks to you, Gene Greenwood, for recording this and sharing it here. Roughly a week until Blaster is released, got it on pre-order, and it'll be blasting from my speakers. It'll be my last record purchase for a while I should think, I'm moving on - travelling, travelling light, living rough - all in the name of music. My turn.

[@captaintundra]

This is how I remember Scott. I had the pleasure of seeing him three times. Thank you for filming and sharing this amazing video!

[@worstcasescenario5242]

Epic. Weiland my hero - reason why I havent gave up on being a guitarist/singer. I was supposed to see them on this particular tour on Finland - but they didnt make it this far. Never saw him live.

[@dianejohnson1644]

He would put on a show

[@dianejohnson1644]

To look back on this concert it was bad knowing how it would end. Once Scott turned 40 his complextion started deteriorating. Looks fatigued. Burned out. Looks like a bunch of guys thrown together with no practice. Quality not there. Shows desperation. Who knows if he's straight here. Damage has been done.

[@worstcasescenario5242]

[@GENEGREENWOOD]

@Lee. This was a recording of the board feed mixed with the room mics. Are you suggesting that I did a crap job of recording this show? The audio will sound exactly as it did in that room with a bit of edge coming from the bands sound man from the board

[@siralphonse007]

Gene Greenwood Good Job for having this recording a reality :)

[@leeklibingat]

+Gene Greenwood No... I was not suggesting any such thing. you misunderstand me. "Also, most any band, filmed with the sound it has, will come off shittier than what it was live." I am merely stating that most recordings of live shows on KZbin are filmed on phones and whatnot resulting in a really shitty sound. Not this show dude. Sounds good.

[@edolivmo]

+Gene Greenwood The sound is superb, 'cause it captures the true essence of a live show... including its natural highs and lows. Great work maaaaaaaan !

Scott and Jeremy could have form the new Led Zeppelin sound (Blues Rock, Hard-Rock, & Alternative) all together. All members have the Page, Bonham, and Jones sound. Except for Scott he has his own .... Jus wish this band have more time to develop and to mature in its own voice(persona).... This is Scott's band!

[@DishGuy]

This is sensational! Just found it, thanks for posting Gene. I miss Scott very much and to get to experience The Wildabouts live is a treasure, in Nanaimo no less, very cool town. The Bowie/Bolan influence is on full display here, magnificent. Blaster is an incredible album that will always be very high on my playlist rotation. With the likes of Weiland and Cornell leaving us, there is a huge void in rock that begs to filled, any takers?

What a rock n roller.. long Live Scott and his iconic incredible stage presence and legendary music and lyrics.. Truly the best..The album with his new band right before he died is EXCELLENT also.. go listen if u haven't. They play a few here in this concert. I would kill for a Velvet Revolver reunion right now. Screw Guns an Rose's. Axle still sounds like shit. Like mickey mouse.. Scott was a real front man. He could literally do anything with his voice.
