Velvet Revolver Not Feeling The Love

Author: Music Review Zone

Velvet RevolverFormer Guns’n Roses drummer Matt Sorum has had a pop at fellow band member Scott Weiland for not appreciating the greatness of the position he finds himself in. Sorum had this to say :

“My career and life in rock ‘n’ roll has come with its ups and downs. Unfortunately, some people in this business don’t realise how great of a life they have. Touring the world, meeting great people and fans all over the world. And just playing music for a living. I feel truly blessed.”

Not rising above the jab, Weiland retorted with a forceful jibe about Sorum being :

“too immature to have a real relationship, let alone children. So don’t attempt to stand in a man’s shoes when you haven’t walked his path”

….that’s maturity for you.

It seems Weiland is the family man and Sorum is the workaholic – although, cancelling an Australian tour to enter rehab may not indicate as much.

Personally I think Weiland has a right to be with his family – but his career choice makes that a little difficult, unless he expects Velvet Revolver to only play gigs in his back-garden. Perhaps it is time for Scott to hang up his vocal chords if he wants to dedicate all his time to the family.
