Velvet Revolver

Velvet Revolver have put off their search for a replacement for Scott Weiland to let Slash tour in support of his recent solo album. Recent interviews with drummer Matt Sorum and the former Stone Temple Pilots singer hint that the search could one day be put off indefinitely.

Velvet Revolver covered Pink Floyd's 'Wish You Were Here' as part of a special four song, one-off reunion concert in West Hollywood, Calif. last night (Jan. 12).

Scott Weiland didn't exactly leave Velvet Revolver on friendly terms, but the singer and his former bandmates have had a few years to smooth things over -- and they'll celebrate their newfound harmony when they come together for a one-night-only reunion concert on Jan. 12 at the House of Blues in West Hollywood, Calif. The band will be just one part of an impressive lineup that's coming together t

Velvet Revolver may be on hiatus, but the band is still actively searching for a new frontman, drummer Matt Sorum reveals. And even if a replacement for singer Scott Weiland, who departed in 2008, is found right away, it still may take some time to get a new record or tour going.

A release date has been confirmed for Slash's very first live album as a solo artist. 'Made In Stoke 24/7/11' will be released on both CD and DVD on Nov. 15 by Eagle Rock Entertainment.

Veteran guitarist Slash has recruited R&B queen Mary J. Blige to guest on his second solo album, which he reportedly resumed working on recently. The axeman revealed the news via twitter: “Just finished a session with Mike Clink engineering on a track with Mary J Blige. Sounds killer!”

Never say never. That's the viewpoint Stone Temple Pilots singer Scott Weiland had adopted when it comes to his other former band, Velvet Revolver. Weiland reports that he is once again friends with Slash and the rest of the group, and says not to rule out an on-stage reunion at some point in the future.

In a new interview, former Guns N' Roses drummer Matt Sorum chats openly about the status of his band Velvet Revolver with fellow ex-Gunners Slash and Duff McKagan. He admits that the band recorded material with Slipknot/Stone Sour singer Corey Taylor, but that it just didn't work out.
