Velvet Revolver lead singer Scott Weiland managed to get clean (for
what seemed like the millionth time) just in time for his band's
European tour and rocked the crowds at London's Brixton Academy last night.
However, all may not be well in Revolver-land. At a sold-out gig in Glasgow, Scotland last week, Scott told the crowd that they were 'watching something special...the last tour by Velvet Revolver.' Scott later yelled at the band's sound guy, threw his microphone to the ground and stomped off the stage.
The source of Scott's comment could be the result of a blog battle between he and the band's drummer Matt Sorum. Matt made some very thinly-veiled references to Scott in his blog post and said 'Unfortunately, some people in this business don't realize how great of a life they have.'
Scott struck back at Matt with a hostile response, saying 'I have only canceled one tour during the entire course of my 16-year run and...you canceled the Aussie tour in the fall because you went to rehab, but I won't say why.'
Ouch. Scott is taking his former band Stone Temple Pilots on the road in May, so the future of VR is truly unclear. If I were Slash, I'd update my resume.
