DUFF MCKAGAN Doesn't Rule Out GUNS N' ROSES Reunion

July 2, 2008

Metro from Philadelphia's 94 WYSP radio station spoke with VELVET REVOLVER/ex-GUNS N' ROSES bassist Duff McKagan on Tuesday (July 1).

According to antiMUSIC, Duff was asked during the interview about Matt Sorum's comments that a GUNS N' ROSES reunion is inevitable. Duff said, in part, "there is no backroom talks, there never has been… but anything can happen. You see all these bands getting back together. I guess hell froze over for THE EAGLES and they did it. But it's not something I count on, or even need in my life."

Duff was also questioned about Matt's recent statement regarding the new VELVET REVOLVER singer search. WYSP's Metro stated, "Matt, your drummer, this week, said that there is actually a guy who you are quote, massaging, and, if you will, sort of checking it out, feeling it out, letting him work with you." Duff responded, "I wouldn't use, probably the words Matt used, but there is a guy we feel is pretty close to what we are looking for. And he's a great guy, amazing singer..."
