SCOTT WEILAND Says Former VELVET REVOLVER Bandmates Are 'Covering Up The Truth' - Apr. 2, 2008
Vocalist Scott Weiland has released a statement to MTV News regarding his dismissal from VELVET REVOLVER.

The founding members of VELVET REVOLVER — guitarists Slash and Dave Kushner, bassist Duff McKagan and drummer Matt Sorum — announced their decision to fire Weiland in a press release issued at the conclusion of the band's final performance with Weiland in Amsterdam, Holland. Slash cited Weiland's "increasingly erratic onstage behavior and personal problems" as reasons for dismissing him.

In a statement released Wednesday morning, Weiland fired back at his erstwhile bandmates, stating, "After reading the comment by Duff, Matt, Dave and the illustrious 'Guitar Hero,' Saul Hudson, a.k.a. Slash, I find it humorous that the so-called four 'founding members' of VELVET REVOLVER, better known to themselves as 'the Project' before I officially named the band, would decide to move on without me after I had already claimed the group dead in the water on March 20 in Glasgow.

"In response to Slash's comment regarding my commitment [to the band], I have to say it is a blatant and tired excuse to cover up the truth. The truth of the matter is that the band had not gotten along on multiple levels for some time. On a musical level, there were moments of joy, inspiration, fun ... at times. But let's not forget the multiple trips to rehab every member of the band had taken (with the exception of one member — no need to mention his name).

"Personally speaking, I choose to look forward to the future and performing with a group of friends I have known my entire life, people who have always had my back," Weiland continued. "This also speaks to my commitment to my music and my fellow bandmates in [STONE TEMPLE PILOTS] and to the fans who I feel would much rather watch a group of musicians who enjoy being together as opposed to a handful of discontents who at one time used to call themselves a gang."

In conclusion, Weiland warned fans not to be "fooled by veiled trickery," and even wished VELVET REVOLVER his best. "Good hunting, lads — I think Sebastian Bach would be a fantastic choice."

C'est quand meme bien dommage, leur deuxième album était quand même trés bon ! peut on imaginer VR avec un nouveau chanteur comme le suggère Slash ?

Ouais le second album est carrément bon... Enfin Weiland doit être remplaçable.. faut voir par qui.

Axl Rose ...

J'ai faillis la faire...

Qui n'y a pas pensé

On parle de chanteur ......

En tous cas la proposition de scott de prendre Sebastian Bach est particulierement mesquine !

Avec Chris Cornell ce serait cool. Et éventuellement possible.

+1

des deux je crois que je préfèrerais encore ...

Oh my God ?!? Te rend tu compte de ce que tu racontes ???

Non, il fait nawak, Cornell, moi j'arrête les frais avec lui, c'est un nase.
Figurez-vous qu'il prépare un nouvel album solo avec, aux manettes... Timbaland.
Ouais, le producteur de hip hop.
Un mec qui a produit le dernier Matt Pokora, quand même.

dommage quand même Cornell fais des choix aussi discutables que son joli timbre de voix, du gachis

Oh putain ouais Tu sais on commences comme ça et on finit par écouter Good to be bad

Bon, j'ai rien dis... J'ai laissé ce message en écoutant Audioslave...

Timbaland est un bon producteur de hip-hop. Bon après c'est vrai Matt Pokora c'est la honte.

On est d'accord.

Ah, tu n'aimes pas le hip-hop, au temps pour moi Manu .

Ah mais si, si!

Mais si Timbaland est un très bon producteur de hip hop (respect, sérieux, big up et tout, Timba), il ne fait pas dans le rock.
Je ne puis m'empêcher de penser que Cornell l'a choisi parce que c'est le producteur à succès.
Si Cornell voulait juste faire de la bonne musique, et notamment rock, y avait plein d'autres choix possibles, non?

Ouais c'est vrai.
Peut-être que Cornell prévoit de faire un album de hip-hop ?
