Velvet Revolver’s Remaining Members Find A Nice Young Man To Jam With

74069355.jpgWhat with the heat and the humidity, you probably forgot all about Velvet Revolver’s search for a new singer–which means that the time is right to note that Spacehog’s Royston Langston is now in the mix for the gig, with Entertainment Weekly reporting that jam sessions between the former Guns N’ Roses members and the former husband of Liv Tyler were “successful.” (Now there is a rock and roll adjective.) “They all got along great,” a tipster told EW. “It was really a refreshing change for the band.” And given that Matt Sorum hasn’t irritably blogged about Langston’s rock and roll attitude, I’d have to think that at the very least, all the guys had fun. But do you think that Duff can do those falsetto backing vocals on “In The Meantime”? Because that would maybe drag me out to a show… if I could get discounted, or at least service-charge-free, tickets. Video of that track after the jump.

    So they traded one Bowie wannabe for another, but instead of one who wrote “Interstate Love Song” they’ve got one who wrote “Mungo City.”

    Visually, this could be very interesting–Royston is about 5′ tall, while Duff is basically a giant.

    Well, he sounds a bit like a cross between Scott and Axl, so that’s sort of interesting.
