Myles Kennedy will sing vocals on next album and talks Guns N Roses Reunion

Mon, 22 Nov 2010

Slash has confirmed that Myles Kennedy will sing the vocals on his next album and that he will embark on a UK tour next summer, however it won't include Download Festival.

"I’d love to play Donington again but we have a tour in August with the solo band and I think Download comes a little too early.

I’ve played there four times with four different bands [Guns N’ Roses, Slash’s Snakepit, Velvet Revolver and Slash] and it really is the best gig of them all.

That festival is really important to me. In fact, UK gigs in general are important. The British fans are the ones you really need to win over, and they’ve been supportive ever since the early days." He tells Sunday Mercury.

When asked if due to Duff McKagan's recent joining Guns N Roses onstage in London if there was a Guns N Roses reunion on the cards he replied, "You know, I get so sick of that question, although I guess people will always ask it," says Slash. "I’m okay with anything to do with Guns N’Roses prior to 1995 but since then I have no interest. There’s just too much negative energy involved. So no, absolutely no comment. Let’s move on..."

In a more fun piece, check out "This much I Know: Slash" from the Guardian from yesterday.. where he talks about why he won't hang his arm out the window when he's driving and why guitars are the "coolest, sexiest thing ever."
