VELVET REVOLVER To Spend Next Week In Pre-Production
May 27, 2006VELVET REVOLVER drummer Matt Sorum (ex-GUNS N' ROSES) has posted the following message on his official blog:
"Just getting back from Boston. Took three winners of the Zildjian contest that we started last year when I was on tour. I took them on a tour of the factory.
"Zildjian makes my cymbals and I have been an endorser for 18 years now.
"After the tour, I helped [the winners] pick out eight free cymbals to take home. Each drummer was different in styles and needed their own sound. So it took time.
"I arrived at 8:30 a.m., which is pretty early for me. It was more like 5:30 a.m. L.A. time. I finally left at around 4:00 p.m. So it was a long day, but I think everyone was very happy.
"Had dinner on the water with the Zildjian family. Had lobster and Boston clam chowder. Amazing!!
"Anyway home for a minute. In the studio with VELVET REVOLVER all next week. Pre-production!!!!!"
VELVET REVOLVER recently recorded a new song for the upcoming animated feature, "Monster House". The band's 2004 debut, "Contraband", was certified double-platinum for sales in excess of two million copies in the United States.
