Velvet Revolver Review - Hammersmith Apollo
Last night I popped along to a hot and sweaty Hammersmith Apollo to see Velvet Revolver. The boys were on fire as they ran through a slick set based mainly on their first album, Contraband. They also used the show to play a couple of new numbers from the forthcoming Libertad CD.
What can I say about them? Slash is Slash so we were assured of the usual red hot licks to really set the audience buzzing. Scott Weiland is an excellent front man. Plenty of energy, with the audience in the palm of his hand. There are not too many quality hard rocking bands around at the moment, so Velvet Revolver are a bit of a treat if this is for you.
For a second opinion take a look at the Where’s My Groupie Velvet Revolver Review - Hammersmith Apollo.
Think I will be picking up a copy of Libertad as soon as it hits the shops.
