Lenny Kravitz Will Not Be Going Velvet Revolver's Way

The truth quotient of the rumor that Lenny Kravitz would be replacing Weiland as the lead singer of Velvet Revolver has plummeted from 38% to zero, if Kravitz's just-issued statement to Rolling Stone is to be believed. "I know and love the Velvet Revolver guys but there is no truth to the story about me joining their band," he told the magazine. Looks like bloggers everywhere will have this story to kick around for a little longer! But where will it go next? More »

Lenny Kravitz, Spiritualized Unite For European Gigs

One guy makes bombastic songs out of '60s catchphrases, the other makes bombastic songs out of '60s catchphrases. So it makes perfect sense that Lenny Kravitz would have Jason Pierce's Spiritualized open some gigs for him in Helsinki (June 7 & 8) and Estonia (June 10). Sadly, there's no reason to believe that this coming together will occur again in England or America, where some fans of Spiritualized might find the headliner less than respectable.

Lenny on tank in black leather." Click the photo to enlarge, and maybe figure out just what sort of movement our hero Lenny may be leading the Technicolor youth towards. Or maybe he's just getting ready for the Halloween parade?
