A little while ago I posted about Velet Revolver searching for a new singer, the band was rumored to be considering that guy from Spacehog. Today it has been revealed that this is untrue and that the search is still on.

“Bassist Duff McKagan tells Billboard.com that although Velvet Revolver did play with Langdon and that “he’s f*cking awesome, at this point I’d have to say no” on him becoming the new singer.

“We just have to make sure it’s the right guy,” he says, adding that Weiland’s angry departure from the band this spring has brought him closer to group members Slash, Matt Sorum and Dave Kushner. “Karmically, we deserve the right guy. It’s a tough thing, man. We make a pretty big noise.”

Personally I think the band should just give it up, but then again I’m not a fan. I think drummer Matt Sorum is good and it’d be cool to see him use his talents and awesome DW Drums with some different players, rather than to keep continuing on with the same guys from Guns N’ Roses. We’ll see what happens I guess.

*(Yes, the above photo is actually Matt Sorum in the 80’s with Guns N’ Roses…wow…).

Remember Velvet Revolver? That band that was basically Guns N’ Roses with Scott Weiland on vocals? Yea, they are still around and after he recently left the band via angry blog posts the band is now continuing on with a search for a new singer. Supposedly a lot of problems arose between Weiland and the rest of the band particularly drummer Matt Sorum.

I am kind of surprised that the search for the bands new singer isn’t a reality TV show. Anyway, rumors are flying that the guy who used to be married to Liv Tyler, and also used to sing for that band Spacehog is in the running.

According to Hollywood Insider…

“They all got along great,” says an insider. “It was really a refreshing change for the band.” Velvet Revolver’s management couldn’t confirm that an offer had been made, and would only say that they’re still auditioning prospective singers. But an RCA source says that Langdon is “definitely in the mix.”

Wow…just…wow, is all I have to say.
