The hirsute guitar god and singer Myles Kennedy performed the 2004 Velvet Revolver song in honor of the late Weiland during a New Year's Eve show in Las Vegas.
Following Scott Weiland's death of a cardiac arrest last night at the age of 48, his former bandmates in both Stone Temple Pilots and Velvet Revolver have issued separate statements.
Duff McKagan is unsure of the future of Velvet Revolver, the supergroup he formed in 2003 with his fellow ex-Guns N' Roses bandmates Slash and Matt Sorum, and Stone Temple Pilots lead singer Scott Weiland. In a new interview, he says he has "no idea" who will replace Weiland, who was fired in 2008.
Velvet Revolver covered Pink Floyd‘s ‘Wish You Were Here’ as part of a special four song, one-off reunion concert in West Hollywood, Calif. last night (Jan. 12).
