"There are some issues that have to be worked out with STP," Weiland told SPIN. "But they're the same issues that have been going on since the end of the last tour. Nobody in the band can be fired. No one's ever fired anybody, and no one's ever quit the band."

Weiland added that the note from the band hurt him on a personal level. "[STP] really have been together a long time, and I'm proud of that," he said.
