Velvet Revolver on the Verge of Breaking Up?
Are Velvet Revolver dissolving following their current European jaunt? Scott Weiland reportedly told a sold-out crowd in Glasgow, Scotland, that they were “watching something special” the last tour by Velvet Revolver.” According to fan reports, the rest of the band all looked at each other in confusion following Weiland’s statement.
In a post today, drummer Matt Sorum said, “So last night was interesting. Had a little band turmoil on stage, as you probably all could tell. Being in a band is a lot like being in a relationship. Sometimes you just don’t get along. I guess there has been more turmoil lately. It has been frustrating, I am not going to lie.” Weiland spent time in a rehab center recently, forcing a postponement of the VR tour. Weiland also recently revealed plans to tour with his old band Stone Temple Pilots this summer. How the band breaking up effects guitarist’s Duff McKagan’s claim that VR will open for a potential Led Zeppelin reunion tour remains to be seen.
