Scott Weiland hints at Velvet Revolver reunion
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 3 August 2011
Velvet Revolver’s remaining members – former Guns N Roses types Slash, Duff McKagan and Matt Sorum – have struggled to find a new frontman since booting Stone Temple Pilots vocalist Scott Weiland out and bad mouthing him all around town.
Having tried pretty much everyone out in a bid to find a replacement for Weiland, it seems that they might now choose the one person no one expected. OK, one of the two people no one expected; Axl Rose is not joining. No, they might actually reunite with Weiland.
The singer told The Pulse Of Radio this week: “We patched things up and we get along. I see them every now and again … who knows, maybe we’ll do some shows sometime soon”.
Reflecting on his time with the band, he added: “That was right when I was getting off dope and those guys were all sober and clean, and I had a very special kind of kinship because we’d all experienced the same things. It was a great band to see live, and I think we made two exciting albums”.
