 The News Tribune reports that Seattle boy Duff McKagan first became a household name as bassist for
Guns N’ Roses in the ’80s. Then he struck gold again in recent years,
after he and most of his G N’ R buddies teamed up with Stone Temple
Pilots singer Scott Weiland to form super-group Velvet Revolver.
But it’s Duff McKagan’s Loaded, the group he formed between his
better-known bands, that will be on display tonight at Hell’s Kitchen.
And he called recently to talk about having more time to dedicate to
Loaded after Weiland’s departure from Velvet Revolver.
Since you brought up the new Velvet Revolver singer, I’ve
seen a few rumors about who’s in the running. Last I read it was
supposedly Lenny Kravitz.
Yeah, I guess that was reported that he was our new singer, which is
surprising to me. I got sent a ton of links yesterday by our
management. And they were all from The New York Post; you know, the Sun
in the U.K., reporting that he’s our new singer. I don’t know where
people get all this (stuff).
You know, I could almost see that workin’.
Well, I think that would be killer. That guy’s a true musician. I’ve
known that guy for 20 years. That would be great. But I’m not sure if
Lenny knows about it. We didn’t know about it. We’ll find a guy.
You can hear clips of the interview, including what McKagan said
about the possibility of Chris Cornell joining the band, on Bring the
Noise (blogs.thenewstribune.com/ej).
