Slash Interview on backstageaxxess.com

Gus: Going on with the singer auditions with Velvet Revolver… when will we see this band take flight again? Slash: I have no idea. We had a couple of guys in the week before last. We have some more guys coming in next week or the week after. Yeah, the week after. All things considered they are all great guys of everyone we have been trying out so far. For the most part anyways there have been some really good singers. Trying to find the right guy for this thing is a lot more complicated than one would probably think. So we will keep on toiling away it until we hit that magic and when that happens then everything will start rolling.

Ronnie Wood about working with Slash

“[There’s] no trouble,” he says about assembling such a cast. “Just natural vibes in the air. People going, ‘Hey, I’m in the studio next door; I’ll come and help you out.’ Or I’d say, ‘Come on, Slash. You know what I want. Get in here! Play!’ And that’s what I’d do, and I’d say, ‘That’s exactly what I wanted. Thank you!’
