Velvet Revolver gets out of studio for mini-tour

Velvet Revolver gets out of studio for mini-tour

Multi-platinum rockers Velvet Revolver (tickets | music) will take a break from work on their sophomore album to mount a brief tour of the West. The group has lined up four late-July shows, beginning with a July 21 concert at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas. The other three performances are set in the band's home state of California. Details are shown below.


The group--fellow former Guns N' Roses members Slash (guitar), Duff McKagan (bass) and Matt Sorum (drums); former Stone Temple Pilots vocalist Scott Weiland; and former Wasted Youth guitarist Dave Kushner--is currently working on the follow-up to its 2004 debut, "Contraband."


"We have been working 5 days a week for the last month," Sorum wrote in a message posted Monday (6/19) at his official blog, "and have about 10 songs worked up." He went on to say that the band plans to start rehearsing for the mini-tour in a couple of weeks.


Though no release date for the new album has been set, fans can catch some new music from the group in the form of recently recorded cut that will turn up on the soundtrack for the forthcoming animated flick "Monster House," which hits theaters July 21.


Velvet Revolver is no stranger to soundtrack contributions; the band's first single, "Slither," turned up on the 2003 "Hulk" motion-picture soundtrack long before "Contraband" hit stores, and "Dirty Little Thing," also from "Contraband," appeared on last year's "XXX: State of the Union" soundtrack. Meanwhile, the band recorded a new song titled "Come On, Come In" for last year's "Fantastic Four" soundtrack.


[Note: The following tour itinerary has been provided by artist and/or tour sources, who verify its accuracy as of the publication time of this story. Changes may occur before tickets go on sale.



July 2006
21 - Las Vegas, NV - Hard Rock Hotel
22 - Costa Mesa, CA - Pacific Amphitheatre
29 - Kelseyville, CA - Konocti Harbor Resort & Spa
30 - Paso Robles, CA - California Mid State Fair

Gosh, then Axl'll have 2 VR albums to go postal &/or be snooty over at shows; & stick his nose in the air & act superior about in interviews, especially "when Chinese Democracy is actually released". hahahahahah

I'm not sure why I find this amusing. Other than Axl's overinflated ego. (Not that Scott W. doesn't have one, o'course, but at least he gets in there and gets it fuckin' DONE.) I actually liked Velvet Revolver quite a bit more than I thought I might. Mostly cause of those chiming swirling inimitable guitars (i.e. Slash, naturally <3 ) which, no matter what, are just damn near fucking irresistible. Mind you, there were a few things on Contraband that were kinda sludge imo, but still.

I'm not gonna wait breathlessly on the edge of my seat cause I HAVE to have the new VR...but I'll probably buy it at some point unless it's utter over-the-top pretentious shite.

Maybe hg will review it for us.

Chyia, in wait-n-see mode

Hi Everyone,

Sorry I haven't been on the Forum lately.
Have been hard at work on the new VR
Stuff.
We have been working 5 days a week for the last month. And have about 10 songs worked up.
Going to work in my studio for another couple of weeks.
Then start rehearsing
For our mini tour of the west coast.
Then back in the studio to complete the album.
Hope some of you have been listening to Camp Freddy radio.
I have been doing it the last month or so.
Might be on this Saturday not sure yet.
But will keep you informed.
Thanks for all the postings and I will get back to you all soon.

Love,
Matt
