More Guns 'N' Roses than in Guns 'N' Roses

Slash, Duff McKagen and Matt Sorum are auditioning singers for a new band, with Neurotica's Kelly Shaefer reportedly the favourite, as Axl Rose tours as Guns N' Roses.

As Axl Rose continues to tour with his new-line up Guns 'n' Roses (he’s the only original member in the band) some are now calling a new band ‘the real Guns ‘n’ Roses’. G ‘n’ R founders guitarist Slash and bass player Duff McKagen, along with drummer Matt Sorum (who joined the band for Use Your Illusion) are about to take to the road with an as-yet-unnamed band. The three are currently auditioning a lead singer - Neurotica singer Kelly Shaefer is said to be a favourite after a storming performance at Ozzfest. Axl’s band were in Shanghai last week filming the video for the first single off their long awaited album 'Chinese Democracy'.
