VELVET REVOLVER's MATT SORUM Interviewed At EPIPHONE REVOLVER GOLDEN GODS AWARDS

April 17, 2009

VELVET REVOLVER/ex-GUNS N' ROSES drummer Matt Sorum was interviewed by Altitude on the "black carpet" of last week's (Tuesday, April 7) Epiphone Revolver Golden Gods Awards at Club Nokia in downtown Los Angeles. Watch the chat below.

VELVET REVOLVER guitarist Slash recently revealed that the band is still searching for a replacement for singer Scott Weiland, who was dismissed in April 2008. He said, "There was a lot of talk about our announcing a new singer in March but it obviously didn't happen. We had somebody that we thought was a really good candidate, but it just wasn't meant to be. So, we're still looking. [As for possible VELVET REVOLVER live shows], of course VR is going to tour again, we just have to find the right person to front the band. We have a bunch of new material and we're all anxious to get going, but the key ingredient for a rock n' roll band such as VR is an amazing frontman, and we haven't found the right man for the job, yet."
