VELVET REVOLVER To Headline Germany's ROCKNACHT Festival

January 24, 2008

VELVET REVOLVER will headline the 22nd Rocknacht festival, set to take place March 29 at the Palladium in Köln, Germany. The festival billing is as follows:

VELVET REVOLVER
THE HIVES
GOOD CHARLOTTE
THE FUTUREHEADS
JOLLY GOODS

Tickets are 47 euros plus cover charge from www.noisenow.de.

Although there has been no official confirmation from anyone involved, VELVET REVOLVER singer Scott Weiland made news over the weekend by telling the Miami Herald to be on the lookout for a STONE TEMPLE PILOTS reunion in the months ahead. The band members are reportedly on good terms again after their less than friendly break-up in 2002, and Weiland told The Pulse of Radio a while back that he wouldn't rule out getting back together. "I think that there is always that distinct possibility," he said. "I have to say it would never come in the way of VELVET REVOLVER, but I don't think that the story has been completely told. I'm unhappy with the ending of the story."

Weiland made his comments at an all-star gala event benefiting the AROD Family Foundation, on Saturday (January 19) at the Ritz Carlton hotel in South Beach, Florida.

Although he was supposed to perform with VELVET REVOLVER on Sunday (January 20) at a party in Park City, Utah during the Sundance Film Festival, Weiland was a no-show for the gig. The vocalist's flight to Utah was diverted because of bad weather. The band carried on with the show, inviting audience members and singer Donovan Leitch to pitch in.
