VELVET REVOLVER - VELVET REVOLVER SCRAP REALITY TV SHOW

VELVET REVOLVER have scrapped plans to turn their search for a new singer into a reality TV show.
The rockers have been without a frontman since firing Scott Weiland at the beginning of April (08), and were toying with the idea of turning their hunt for his replacement into a TV talent contest.
Drummer Matt Sorum reveals several TV producers pitched the band the idea for the show.
He says, "We felt that wasn't the right forum for us to do it, so we got some ideas and we should have that news in a couple weeks... and I think it's going to surprise everybody."
