VELVET REVOLVER Begin Work On Material For Sophomore Album

April 15, 2005

ABC ePrep reports: VELVET REVOLVER recently kicked off their Electric Wonderland Show tour, and their next show is tonight at the Santa Barbara Bowl in Santa Barbara, California. This tour marks VELVET REVOLVER's first arena tour, and frontman Scott Weiland says that it's a challenge to bring an intimate quality to a large venue. He says that VELVET REVOLVER solves the problem by keeping the stage smaller because, "if you enlarge the stage too much, we found that the band doesn't play as a band any more — you start playing as individuals...So, we sort of keep the stage smaller, just so we perform as a band."

Guitarist Slash says that VELVET REVOLVER has started to work on the follow-up to their hit debut album, "Contraband", and as he puts it, "We're making arrangements to take, whenever we have some time off, to go in and start pre-production and do this thing, 'cause everybody's really excited about it."
