VELVET REVOLVER Bassist Comments On London Terrorist Attacks
July 8, 2005ABC ePrep reports: VELVET REVOLVER bassist Duff McKagan says that the mood in London in the wake of the tragic attacks is very different from the mood only a few days ago, when VELVET REVOLVER performed at the London Live 8 concert. He described the atmosphere at the show as a, "worldwide...just groove, peace fest." He says he thought the feeling would last, "and then this thing happens in London, and the focus definitely got turned."
McKagan says that VELVET REVOLVER just wrapped up their tour and now they're taking a break. They'll start working on their sophomore album before they hit the road again with Ozzfest in August. They're playing the last week of Ozzfest, replacing IRON MAIDEN, who had previously committed to play shows elsewhere on those days.
