Revolver to reload with on-line vocalist search

April 19, 2008

Velvet Revolver guitarist Slash said the band is creating a Web site to audition singers.

The site will help Velvet Revolver replace Scott Weiland, whose April 1 dismissal from the band continued the public feud between the ex-frontman and his former bandmates.

''We're at that point of just listening to different things ... it's one of those kind of situations where you can't really explain it to anybody because you'll know it when you hear it," Slash said. "So I'm waiting to get that feeling of, 'Yeah that's it.' ''

The site should go up ''in the next month or so.''

In the meantime, Velvet Revolver has an upcoming gig in Las Vegas that was booked before Weiland's departure. Slash said it will feature friends of the band taking turns at the microphone.
