Slash Quashes Led Zeppelin Rumour
Velvet Revolver guitarist Slash has spoken out to quash last week's rumours that his supergroup of erstwhile Guns N'Roses members and ex-Stone Temple Pilots vocalist Scott Weilland will support Led Zeppelin.
Velvet Revolver last week sparked rumours of a full scale Led Zeppelin world tour when bassist Duff McKagen claimed to have bagged the highly desired support slot.
Guitarist Slash, however, has a different perspective on the situation. He said: "There's been a huge rumour going around about us opening for them and I think that was something that was taken out of context."
Slash claimed to know nothing of a Led Zeppelin reunion tour. He continued: "As far as Zeppelin doing a tour, that remains to be seen.
"I saw Robert [Plant] last night and he's got his solo thing going on and as far as Velvet Revolver is concerned, we've got another record to do and we're not even thinking about that."
Velvet Revolver play Brixton Academy tonight (March 25) and tomorrow (March 26).
