VELVET REVOLVER Performs Four-Song Set At 'Love You Madly
« on: January 13, 2012, 11:56:30 AM »
VELVET REVOLVER reunited with singer Scott Weiland for a one-off performance at last night's (Thursday, January 12) "Love You Madly: A Concert For John O'Brien" at the House Of Blues in West Hollywood, California. The band played a four-song set — including a cover version of the PINK FLOYD classic "Wish You Were Here" — at the event, which paid tribute to award-winning ASCAP composer John O'Brien, who was found dead in his Chicago hotel room last August.

The band's setlist was as follows:

01. Sucker Train Blues
02. She Builds Quick Machines
03. Slither
04. Wish You Were Here (PINK FLOYD cover)

Several photos of the performance and the pre-show soundcheck can be seen below.

Really cool that they did this.
I know it looks like I'm insane
Take a closer look I'm not to blame
Yeah
If love is blind I guess I'll buy myself a cane

I wasn't blown away by their stage performance, but I still prefer this band over Slash's solo effort. In the final analysis, it feels good to watch these guys share the same stage again. :thumbsup:
