Trouble Within Velvet Revolver?

[Smoking Guns]

Will STP play any VR songs?  ha, that would be weird. 

[Alan]

From MTV...

Weiland's Velvet Revolver bandmate Slash claimed the singer will rejoin his former bandmates in Stone Temple Pilots for a handful of summer reunion shows this summer ? although the article contains no quote of him saying that.

Hmmm. Last anyone can remember, Slash was never a member of Stone Temple Pilots

MTV's reporters lack the intelligence to understand the english language.

at no point was it insinuated that slash was a member of STP. you'd think such a big company would have proof readers really.

YOU didn't get it , they where insinuating that VR could be over..

According to numerous sources close to the band and others who work in various capacities throughout the industry, the reunion tour is on. Some claim venues have already been reserved throughout the country for the trek, and others say they're actively trying to secure their bands opening slots on the proposed run.

Sounds like more than a handful of shows.

Also this from belowempty.com on Wiki...more rumors.

There is a rumour going around L.A. that there's pre-production for new STP-material going on at Eric Kretz' Bombshelter Studios in Los Angeles. There's no word if the DeLeo brothers are involved, but according to the reports, Eric is laying down basis drum tracks for material that will be worked on once Scott wraps up the current Velvet Revolver tour on April 1st in Amsterdam.

And so it begins....

Sweet!  I love STP.  Hopefully, they put out a new cd as well because the last one was not great.

Might Slash maybe guest on a few stp tracks?

No chance.

Might Slash maybe guest on a few stp tracks?

I would say Slash wouldn't want to be anywhere near an STP project, but then again he's worked with just about everyone so who knows.  But I'd say no.

I guess this is trouble for Scott

Does anyone know why Scott performed in Austin TX without one of his front teeth?  Just a new look?

Looks great, doesn't it?      

He's been looking like that for the last few weeks.  Apparently, a cap fell out, somewhere.

someone at the show said "Scott stopped the band after Matt started Sucker Train to tell the audience about his teeth: According to Scott: He was in Europe some time ago, and was 'kidnapped' by 3 big guys and beaten up.  'One tooth is cracked, and the other one just fell out.  But I am alive, and thats all that matters.  Thats what happens when we we get kicked or fall down, we get up and keep on trucking'."

That's a bullshit story, if I ever heard one! 

[Feel_The_Burn]

That's a bullshit story, if I ever heard one! 

And you're a GNR fan so you've def' heard one 

But seriously , I doubt anyone will buy scott's alibi.

[r3dhawk6]

I'm pretty sure he was just joking around...at least that's the way I took it

I love VR and hope they stay together and keep rockin' for a long time, but if Scott wants/needs to go (and its seems he does) then that's what he should do.  If its just a hiatus for the band great, but if its permanent I hope they try to continue with another singer...maybe Izzy or someone mentioned Billy M who would be better than Kid Rock or some of the others mentioned

This is wild.  This has real legs now.  What will Slash and Duff do?  Hmmmm..... 

[Jim Bob]

This is wild.  This has real legs now.  What will Slash and Duff do?  Hmmmm..... 

Slash might do his solo album, Duff seems content with laying low.

or maybe they'll write the next VR album while Scott is on tour with STP and depending on how that goes maybe Scott would be able to come back and do the lyrics/vocals.

First one sounds more logical , I just don't see that happening.
