Rocker Scott Weiland is celebrating a year of being clean from 

heroin by preparing for the birth of his first child. 

The Stone Temple Pilots front man was about to go into jail for abusing drugs a year ago and he admits his circumstances have 

drastically changed and his life is so much better. 

He says, "I'm going to birthing classes and getting the house 

together. A year ago, I'd never have thought this would be 

happening." 

And he admits he's enjoying life so much better without heroin. 

He adds, "I would collapse after a show, now I'm able to wake up 

the next day full of energy. When you're touring as a heroin 

addict, you're always thinking about when you're going to get your 

next shipment; you have to think about where to cop in each town 

so you don't get sick” – Wenn.
