Scott Weiland recently offered that he'd like to return to Velvet Revolver for some "easy money" shows, but Slash says the band is still seeking a replacement.

We often see videos of kids rocking out to some classic Guns N' Roses songs, but here we have something a little different. Velvet Revolver, the group formed by former GN'R members and Stone Temple Pilots singer Scott Weiland, have reached out to even the smallest of rock fans!

Congratulations are in order for drummer Matt Sorum and his longtime girlfriend Adriane "Ace" Harper. The happy couple finally tied the knot on Saturday, Oct. 12, in Palm Springs, Calif. surrounded by their family and friends.

Rock supergroup Velvet Revolver has been struggling with lineup issues for quite some time now since parting with vocalist Scott Weiland. Conflicting stories on Weiland's place in the band have been prevalent for a year now, but Velvet Revolver guitarist Slash just made it public that the band is "very quietly" looking for a new singer.

As you’re grabbing that sixer to kickstart your weekend, we’re serving up a sixer of our own. The Sixer at 6 features 6 songs in a row from the band of your choice every Friday afternoon at 6pm.

Scott Weiland may have reunited with Velvet Revolver for a show early last year, but the singer's comments about getting back together with the band are not exactly having the desired effect.

While the remaining members of Velvet Revolver have been rocking out with their latest solo efforts, former vocalist Scott Weiland seems hopeful about the revival of the band and his potential return as the frontman of the currently defunct supergroup. In fact, he even suggests they are set to start writing new material.

Drummer Matt Sorum looks upon his tenure with Velvet Revolver as some of the best times of his career, but he definitely has some reservations about whether the band will continue.

Slash has further refuted Scott Weiland‘s claims that the singer is returning to the Velvet Revolver fold to record a new album and to embark on a tour. He essentially said that while he loves Weiland, he doesn’t want to be in a band with him ever again. That sounds pretty definitive!

Well that was fast! The news from Scott Weiland that he was back with Velvet Revolver and planning to record and tour came as a shock to fans, but no one may have been more surprised than guitarist Slash, who offered a denial when quizzed about it by Minneapolis/St. Paul station 93X.

Four years after their acrimonious split, the members of Velvet Revolver reunited with lead singer Scott Weiland for a brief live set last night (Jan. 12) — and now a message on the band’s website is causing some to question whether Weiland could be back in the fold on a more permanent basis.

We recently reported that Scott Weiland was going to rejoin Velvet Revolver, but only for a short lived one night stand. Now VR guitarist Dave Kushner has offered up more details on the reunion.
