Matt Sorum Turned Down Guns N' Roses Reunion Invite

Matt Sorum says in a new interview that he turned down an invitation to reunite with Guns N' Roses after they asked him to make a guest appearance with the group.

The former Guns N' Roses, Velvet Revolver and The Cult drummer appeared on AllDay Vinyl's Legends: Podcast and was asked if he has been to a Guns N' Roses show since Axl Rose reunited with Slash and Duff McKagan.

He responded, "No, I haven't got the invite, 'hey, come watch the band.' I'm, like, 'I don't think so.' They invited me to come play and I declined. I didn't think it made sense to go play what, two songs, and then do what? I mean, I play music, I play with musicians."

He added, "So that's cool. Whatever they're doing is cool. I'm still living this vagabond dream of like, journeyman. I kind of like where I'm at as far as taking twists and turns..."
