Title: VELVET REVOLVER Members Jam With Country Music Band BIG & RICH Post by: anythinggoes on April 28, 2006, 07:26:31 AM VELVET REVOLVER Members Jam With Country Music Band BIG & RICH - Apr. 28, 2006?
According to The Tennessean, VELVET REVOLVER members Scott Weiland (vocals) and Duff McKagan (bass) showed up Tuesday (April 25) at 12th & Porter in Nashville, Tennessee for the regular weekly jam session for MuzikMafia, the music fraternity that helped launch BIG & RICH and GRETCHEN WILSON. The place was packed because Kiefer Sutherland musical discovery Rocco DeLuca was playing, and rumors were that Kiefer might show. It also was packed because there were rumors that VELVET's Scott (formerly of STONE TEMPLE PILOTS) and Duff (formerly of GUNS N' ROSES) ? in town to be, of all things, guest judges on "Nashville Star" ? would show. Scott and Duff hit the MuzikMafia stage after sets by BIG & RICH, SHANNON LAWSON and JAMES OTTO. The VELVET REVOLVER guys did three or four songs, including a STONE TEMPLE PILOTS song or two. At song three, Scott took off his shirt. "The ladies loved that," reported "Nashville Star" judge Anastasia Brown, who was in the house. Fans swarmed Scott and Duff afterward, looking for pictures and autographs. "People were losing their minds," said Nathan Barlowe of local rock band LUNA HALO, who opened a couple of weeks of shows for VELVET REVOLVER. "I mean, that's 12th & Porter, small and intimate. We play there all the time, and to see Scott Weiland up there doing his thing was pretty amazing." John Rich of BIG & RICH thought so, too. "At one point the stage had BIG AND RICH, VELVET REVOLVER, James Otto, Shannon Lawson, B.B. King's band members and TWO FOOT FRED," John said. "It looked like a Nashville version of PARLIAMENT FUNKADELIC. Unreal." By the way, strange but true: Scott and Duff ended up on "Nashville Star" because they're actually addicted to it and they volunteered to be guest judges. In related news, VELVET REVOLVER's Slash and Matt Sorum, along with M?TLEY CR?E's Tommy Lee, attended the grand opening of Rande Gerber's Cherry Nightclub inside the Red Rock Casino in Las Vegas, NV on Saturday, April 22.
