OCWeekly's Ryan Weyls has issued an interview with bassist Duff McKagan (LOADED, VELVET REVOLVER, ex-GUNS N' ROSES). An excerpt follows:
Q: How's it going with finding a vocalist for Velvet Revolver?
A: "Slash and I played in New York a couple weeks ago and Matt Sorum was there. There was a singer there we might write some songs with. None of us have really tried [to find anyone] in the last few years. We've all been busy with other things. I think once that whole thing went down with Scott [Weiland], we thought we'd find a guy right away. Once a few months went by, it was like, 'Oh fuck'. We didn't give up on the band but you can't force a singer into a situation. It's got to just kind of happen. So playing a few weeks ago with that singer, it seemed really natural. So we'll see. I'll come back to you on that."
