And Finally
Velvet Revolver have been toying with us all this time
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 11 October 2011
How many stories have you read claiming that Velvet Revolver are on the verge of finding a new vocalist since Scott Weiland was pushed out of the band in 2008? I don’t think I could count the number I’ve written on two hands. And now it turns out that all this time they’ve not even been trying to find a new frontman. Bastards.
Bassist Duff McKagan told Noisecreep: “None of us have really tried [to find anyone] in the last few years. We’ve all been busy with other things. I think once that whole thing went down with Scott, we thought we’d find a guy right away. Once a few months went by, it was like, ‘Oh fuck'”.
The band recently performed together in New York with Ours vocalist Jimmy Gnecco. He’s probably not the new VR frontman though. He’s probably just some guy.
