STEVEN ADLER Featured In New ALTER BRIDGE Video

October 8, 2008

Former GUNS N' ROSES drummer Steven Adler is featured in ALTER BRIDGE's new video for the song "Watch Over You", which is cut with scenes from VH1's "Celebrity Rehab 2" show.

Adler in June underwent detoxification and treatment at a center in the Los Angeles area on the second season of the hit reality series "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew". The series, consisting of eight one-hour episodes, is slated to premiere this month on VH1.

The drummer was ordered by a judge in August to remain in rehab while he awaited a preliminary hearing on a felony charge of drug possession and a misdemeanor count of being under the influence of drugs.

Adler was arrested around 4 a.m. on July 18 by officers called to a home where a man reportedly was creating a disturbance and refusing to leave.

The warrant stems from a 2005 case where Adler was charged for being under the influence of a controlled substance and driving on a suspended license. He then sealed his fate by missing a court date in April of 2006.

The drummer told Lynn Hernandez of Tulsa, Oklahoma's 97.5 KMOD radio station at the Rocklahoma festival about a week before his arrest that he was planning on being part of the cast of "Sober Living", a spin-off of VH1's "Celebrity Rehab".

"Sober Living", which was described as a cross between "Surreal Life" and "The Real World", would put a number of "Celebrity Rehab" alumni together in a luxurious Beverly Hills mansion for 30 days while they try to rebuild their careers without drugs and alcohol, according to the New York Post.

Like "Celebrity Rehab", the new show would prominently feature Dr. Drew Pinsky ("Loveline"),who oversees the celebs during their stints in televised rehab.
