VELVET REVOLVER SINGER SEARCH GETS A BOOST

Rockers VELVET REVOLVER are close to finding a frontman to replace former singer SCOTT WEILAND.
The supergroup, featuring former Guns N' Roses stars Slash, Duff MCKagan and Matt Sorum, sacked Weiland after a series of public band rows in April (08) and have been looking for a new singer ever since.
The search stalled late last year (08) after Liv Tyler's ex-husband, British rocker Royston Langdon, auditioned for the group - but MCKagan insists there's new hope.
He tells ThePulseofRadio.com, "In the last, I would say, about eight weeks, we got three guys in that were all really good - like, far and above, more fitting than the rest... We're headed in a very positive direction, and you might be hearing something soon."
