Hoobastank Singer Has A Few Words For Velvet Revolver

[jarmo]

Continuing with the tradition of me only posting negative things about VR, here's episode #97975494:?




" 'If I Were You ...' was really inspired by, um, the NHL strike. Not like 'Oh, I'm going to write a song about hockey!' but watching all that ? and going on tour with Velvet Revolver ? you see all these guys who have so much and don't appreciate it," he said. "They seem to have forgotten where they came from. Actually, let me rephrase that: Four of those guys were the coolest ever, one of them is just in his own world. And I'll leave it at that."

I'm actually upset that 4 of them were cool to the stank.

Hesus Crysta, VR has their own Axl. ?He even rides on his own bus with his assistant. ?Sound familiar? ?Oh well, I guess thats how some singers are.

Who is the one guy that forgot where he came from??

Hey its not Matt/Duff/Slash or Dave's fault that Scott is the way he is.
I personally would like to  see anyone else at that spot rather than Scott too.
He is the kind of guy you wouldn't even want to meet or ask for autograph even if you could do so.
I would personally like to see there Gilby,  Izzy or Billy Duffy (although I never listened to Cult).

Maybe that hoobastank guy should shut the fuck up. rather have no "bonds" between hoobatank and VR.
I guess hes trying to milk the last drop of celebrity theres left for them.

[MeanBone]

i wouldn't know about that, they seem to sell a lot more than vr in europe. at least they're on the radio all the time.
besides the guy has the right to his opinion, he met scott, therefor he has something to base his opinion on.
when i was in the VR meet and greet i could tell scott was the diva around there. he was in his hotel room screaming at some poor women from universal, i happened to call her cuz the band was running late and i could hear him screaming on the other side. the band came, minus scott, and said he was feeling under the weather. i couldn't give a fuck cuz i never liked the guy, i was there for the gn'r part of the band. but some people in there were STP fans and pretty upset. even tho' they were not surprised.

maybe someone in the band was rude to him or didn't have the time he expected to show him the ropes or give him the time of day.. Not everyone can like each person they meet... If the guy is being honest then I see nothing wrong with saying it..

who are hoobstank?? i never heard of them

don't know if you are joking or not but they opened for vr in north america.. They had a big emo hit in the usa with a song The Reason.

[kobys]

I love VR but Scott doesn't seem to have the easiest going personality in the world. He seems very tempermental to me. Oh well, if the rest of the band can deal then I guess it's all good.

[St.heathen]

That's the legend of the rock singer though isn't it? lol  He's not the first, nor the last to be awkward.  Who cares?  He imo is a fantastic frontman.

that's how I feel.. As long as he does his job and plays the shows there isn't much I can say..

[Malcolm]

Why dosent this guy just shut his fucking mouth...One hit that theyve played for like a year now..Its getting fucking old so give up..VR are already legendary..there whole album kicks ass not one song..so shut the fuck up

[kobys]

So Scott's allowed to speak his mind but this other guy isn't?

[D]

at the concert I went to he did ask the crowd "How Many GNR fans there were out there"


HOobastank licks balls and I am glad Scott gave them the cold shoulder

How bout Matt "Two Faced" Sorum gonna talk shit about Hoobastank and then be buddies with them on the tour. Of course he did the same thing to Axl, so Id rather have Scott who is honest with his feelings than Matt Sorum who sucks whoevers dick is around at the time.

I do recall Matt making a comment about Hoobastank's name, did he also make negative comments about the band itself or it's members?

I think he just said something about the name but I could be wrong. I hate the name myself.
