Slash Heading Back To UK

Plus Velvet Revolver currently auditioning singers

Slash has revealed that Velvet Revolver are back together and auditioning singers, and his solo band should be heading back to the UK for more live dates early next year.

In a long post on his MySpace page Slash revealed that his solo band are currently booking dates for the US, Asia and South America in January 2011 with UK and European dates to follow.

"We start in the States then hit Asia, Australia and South America/Mexico. We're working on U.K./European dates as well, Alter Bridge schedule permitting. I will announce all the exact calendar dates as soon as they are completely finalized and that will be forthcoming very soon. Also, for those of you in South Africa, we badly want to come to come over, but the promoters there have to ship us out. So get on them!

"In the meantime, there's a lot going on. VELVET REVOLVER is back together jamming, trying out singers. No updates yet. But it's great to hook up with Duff McKagan, Matt Sorum and Dave Kushner after all this time. I'll keep you posted on any interesting developments from those sessions as they happen. But the creative juices are definitely flowing. I'm positive something awesome is going to surface soon."
