Wacked News

Rock's rich tapestry is rife with threads about musicians being banned, busted or otherwise singled out for their utter filthiness, so it's a nice change of pace when a performer gets into trouble for being a little too clean -- the fate that recently befell Puddle of Mudd singer Wes Scantlin, The singer got into hot water after he got into room temperature water -- namely the H-2-0 filling the pool at Graceland, which he leapt into while on a tour of Elvis Presley's one-time home.

Scantlin, who was apparently fully clothed when he decided he needed a nice refreshing dip -- or, as our cynical side might suggest, a little bit of publicity for an upcoming album release -- has been banned from the grounds for life. We're not entirely certain if that means Scantlin's lifespan or that of Elvis himself.
