Title: Re: Where did they get there name?? Post by: Civil_War on April 17, 2005, 01:13:26 PM They said something like they wanted it to show the band is bad ass with revolver, but also has a soft side with velvet. I do remember reading that, but im sure my words arent right.
Title: Re: Where did they get there name?? Post by: Evolution on April 17, 2005, 02:51:01 PM On the below empty fansite i read that they pulled 3 random words out of a hat and out came Black Velvet Revolver.
They dropped the Black and the rest is history Title: Re: Where did they get there name?? Post by: jarmo on April 17, 2005, 03:30:58 PM I think Revolver was Slash's idea, but then he figured there were too many bands called that so Scott came up with the Black Velvet thing. They dropped Black because it sounded too much like STP...

They should of just been Guns without Roses. Title: Re: Where did they get there name?? Post by: becky_est87 on May 19, 2005, 05:02:12 AM I think that it was Slash who came up with the name of Revolver becasue he liked the idea of coming around again, and then Scott added the softer side of Velvet. Then they added the two together and there we go.....well i think ???
