VELVET REVOLVER founding members Slash, Duff McKagan, Matt Sorum and Dave Kushner announced today (Tuesday, April 1) that they are parting ways with singer Scott Weiland. “This band is all about its fans and its music and Scott Weiland isn’t 100% committed to either,” said Slash in a press release. “Among other things, his increasingly erratic onstage behavior and personal problems have forced us to move on.”

As most of you probably already know, STONE TEMPLE PILOTS are reuniting this summer for a big tour.
Slash and Duff have been consistent with comments regarding VELVET REVOLVERs future and the indication is they will be moving forward with a different vocalist.
