Velvet Revolver 'Use YouTube To Recruit Scott Weiland Replacement'

June 20, 2008
Velvet Revolver 'Use YouTube To Recruit Scott Weiland Replacement'Velvet Revolver could be recruiting their replacement for former vocalist Scott Weiland via file sharing website YouTube.

Rolling Stone reports that unknown singers have been campaigning for the ultimate job by posting online video auditions.

Many have claimed that they have the inside track for the job, although no one in the Velvet Revolver camp has officially contacted any would be singers.

Drummer Matt Sorum admitted that the band had listened to some submissions sent in by mail but failed to confirm if they would be using YouTube to attain their new member.

As previously reported, the band revealed they declined to find a new singer with the aid of a reality TV show believing it to be the wrong type of forum to do so.
