Velvet Revolver To Rock The Sovereign Bank Arena

November 30, 2007 | Newsroom, News

(TRENTON, NJ – November 28, 2007) –Everything you've heard about Velvet Revolver is true. This is the band that brings together three former members of one of rock's greatest groups Guns N' Roses--Slash, bassist Duff McKagan and drummer Matt Sorum--together with one of rock's most charismatic frontmen Scott Weiland, formerly of Stone Temple Pilots, and guitarist Dave Kushner, formerly of Wasted Youth. Velvet Revolver’s Re-Evolution tour will bring the rock super group to the Sovereign Bank Arena on Saturday, December 29 at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets for Velvet Revolver are $55, $45, $35 and go on sale this Saturday, December 1 at 10 a.m. Tickets can be purchased at the Sovereign Bank Arena box office, charge by phone at 1-800-298-4200, select ACME locations, or online at www.ComcastTIX.com.

Libertad is Spanish for both "liberty" and "freedom." Libertad is also the title of the new album from Velvet Revolver. "With the first record we had to establish ourselves as a new band," McKagan explains. "Since then, we've actually figured out who we are as a band, so there's been room for musical growth. These songs have more space; they breathe. Scott is writing about much broader issues than on Contraband; he's looking outward more."

Libertad is the follow-up to VR's Grammy-generating, multiplatinum #1 debut, Contraband (2004). “Slither,” off of Contraband won a Grammy for Best Hard Rock Performance in 2004.
