AXL ROSE VS. SCOTT WEILAND, PART 2

Velvet Revolver drummer Matt Sorum says, post-split with Weiland, maybe former Guns N’ Roses bandmate Axl Rose wasn’t so bad.

Guns N’ Roses frontman had some choice words for former Stone Temple Pilots vocalist Scott Weiland in the press via a statement issued by his management. Rose called Weiland a “fraud,” and Weiland responded by calling him a wig wearing, fat, botox [expletive].”

We caught up with Scott Weiland at the Camp Freddy event at the Hard Rock in New York City, and he talked about how he views the alleged feud.

“I don’t really… I don’t really think of it as… There’s not really any rift between he and I because I don’t really know the guy to tell you the truth. It didn’t really make any sense when he launched an attack on me, because I don’t know anything about him. I’ve never met the guy, so it didn’t make any sense. When he attacked me, when he attacked Duff [McKagan], I sort of waited a bit and I decided to respond.”

Weiland now fronts Velvet Revolver and he recently joined bandmates Duff McKagan and drummer Matt Sorum at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York City to play withe the all-star cover band, Camp Freddy.
