VELVET REVOLVER frontman Scott Weiland has told MiamiHerald.com that fans should be on the lookout for a reunion of his previous band, STONE TEMPLE PILOTS, in the coming months. The singer made the announcement during an appearance this past Saturday (January 19) at an all-star gala event benefiting the AROD Family Foundation. The event took place at the Ritz Carlton hotel in South Beach, Florida. Hosts included Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez and his wife Cynthia, who founded the non-profit organization to support programs focused on improving quality of life, education and mental health for families in distress.STONE TEMPLE PILOTS guitarist Dean DeLeo and bassist Robert DeLeo confirmed the band's split in 2003 following the release of the group's greatest-hits package, "Thank You"."It was time to move on to other things," Dean told Guitar One magazine at the time. "Life and personalities and brotherhood took its course.""Dean and [drummer] Eric [Kretz] and myself, I think, all feel a sense of sadness, relief, anger, melancholy about it," said Robert. "But to try and go and accomplish something with this band after we've already peaked is a bit cheesy. There's a cheese factor with guys hitting 40 trying to recapture glory."There's no way to go but out."Weiland was expected to appear in a Los Angeles courtroom last Thursday (January 17), where his recent DUI case was to be continued. The singer was charged with driving under the influence of drugs after being pulled over by police in late November.VELVET REVOLVER will begin a new U.S. tour on January 24 in Chicago, with dates confirmed through February 9.

Se confirma el regreso de Stone Temple Pilots: el guitarrista de Velvet Revolver, Slash, ha declarado a Billboard.com que su compañero de banda, Scott Weiland, tiene previsto volver a actuar con la banda con la que saltó a la fama en un puñado de conciertos, que, se supone que será en EEUU aunque el guitarra no especifica donde serán. Se sabe que los conciertos serán este verano.
Y hablando sobre Guns N Roses, Slash admite que no guarda el contacto con Axl Rose y tampoco ha oído nada de "Chinese Democracy". ¿Habrá que llegar hasta 2012 para que ambas partes vuelvan a reunirse? El citado año es cuando Guns N Roses podrán entrar en el Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
Precisamente, Slash, Duff y Matt Sorum fueron testigos directos de otra banda que pasó a formar parte del salón y cuya ceremonia de entrada no lo que podría calificarse de memorable: Van Halen. Eddie Van Halen estaba en un centro de rehabilitación y David Lee Roth rehusó participar. Así que, los miembros de Velvet Revolver se subieron al escenario a tocar con el bajista Michael Anthony y el vocalista Sammy Haggar.
¿Cuantos años lleva Axl Rose dando la matraca con el China democracy? Alguien ha oido algo.
Pues yo espero que disuelva ya a los Velvet Revolver, porque ardo en deseos de ver a la formación grunge más incomprendida de todas. ¡Siva, ve sacando del baúl tus camisetas de leñador!
