VELVET REVOLVER Bassist Says "Health Issues" Contributed To Rescheduling Aussie Tour www.News.com.au reports:
VELVET REVOLVER's Duff McKagan has promised their Australian fans they will tour Australia in February after suddenly postponing this week's visit after frontman Scott Weiland was busted for DUI.
The bassist also said "health issues'' had contributed to rescheduling the Australian tour.
Weiland's reps have said the singer, who has been down the wobbly road of arrests and rehab before, denies the allegations and will contest the DUI charge in a Los Angeles court on December 13th.
McKagan said he was unsure if Weiland was prohibited from trvaelling after his arrest and suggested the postponement was more due to the mysterious health issues.
"We found out (the tour was off) when everybody found out,'' he said yesterday.
"That is the first time I have ever had to postpone a tour in my whole career so I'm really glad we have been able to get these new gigs organised.''
