Duff McKagan is unsure of the future of Velvet Revolver, the supergroup he formed in 2003 with his fellow ex-Guns N' Roses bandmates Slash and Matt Sorum, and Stone Temple Pilots lead singer Scott Weiland. In a new interview, he says he has "no idea" who will replace Weiland, who was fired in 2008.
Slash remains out on tour as a solo artist, albeit with the very capable Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators serving as his band, but the questions about Velvet Revolver's future still remain.
That Velvet Revolver reunion story from a few hours ago was pretty exciting, right? Well... hold onto that happy feeling, because according to Slash that's all you're going to get for a while: "I have absolutely no intention of going back to that."
The man chosen to replace Scott Weiland as frontman for Velvet Revolver is … Scott Weiland. The oft-troubled singer is back with the band, and they're making new music with an eye on a third studio album.
