If Weiland ever left VR for any reason

[Smoking Guns]

I have a replacement.

Guys, Kid Rock is not hard rock.  I agree.  But his new song is fucking killer.  It is very ballsy.  It is very simple, but it rocks.  Rock lyrics "I wanna fuck you like I'll never see you again", ballsy playing.  Nice tasty solo.  Huge intro with just guitar, Bass, and drums jamming out.  I am convinced Kid could lead a real rock band..... I would take his ass in Velvet Revolver.  I am honest.  He has a decent voice, great front man, can scream, has attitude, not addicted to anything.  He may be a genuine badass for all I know.  And after knocking out Tommy Lee last month he is inching closer.  I could just see him getting along so good with Slash, Duff, Dave, and Matt.

I know I am about to get flamed.

I still love Scott, just keeping options open incase he hits the door to reunite STP.

Kid Rock crosses a line of white trash that I am not willing to follow.

[Smoking Guns]

perhaps.  But, I think if he stuck to rock, he could be good... Seriously.  So Hott proves that to me.

I'd really rather have VR the way they are now.

[Smoking Guns]

okay!!!  sorry!

I like VR the way they are too!  Just would love to see Slash jam with Rock on a true Rock song one day. 

I hope the next VR album returns to more hard rock!

I think Josh Todd would be a good fit and they'd get back to some meaner, nastier, bluesier hard rock with him.  They should've gone with Josh Todd to begin with.

What? VR breaking up or taking a break?

Nothing aganst KR, but not a good fit for me.

You can never know what the future holds and it's not like the band hasn't had their tension both before making this record and during the tour for it.  Plus, you have Weiland's solo album coming up, so there will have to be a break on Weiland-included activity.

Very true, afterall how amny members have come and gone from the GNR line-up post 1996?

VR will break up one day... Nothing lasts for ever as the song said. What I think won?t happen is Scott being replaced for whoever really. The band can take some time, even break-up but I don?t picture them finding another singer. That?d would change the whole dinamic of the band. They could start another one however...

I wouldn't be surprised if Duff and Slash continue working together after VR.

Maybe even with Matt.... And then get a new singer.

Me neither. But in another band. It woulnd?t make much sense keeping up with VR without the singer from the beginning.

I wouldn't be surprised if Duff, Slash, Matt and Dave continue to work together. ?Duff and Slash both have history with Dave, so it's feasible.

Too bad for them that Buckcherry has come back with a vengeance on their new album. ?Josh Todd won't be available anytime soon, I don't think. ?Not that he would consider working with Slash again as he seemed pissed by how Slash ended their working relationship last time. ?They might have to go with an unknown if things don't work with Weiland down the road.

I too think they would probably work together at some point in time, maybe not right away. I would think they would probably change the name of the band though.

[DeN]

yes, with a new name, but much more because of the lack of success of this band.

for the singer choice...it is hard, because they need an excellent one who is a great songwriter too.

[LunsJail]

I know a lot of people here don't like Scott for a variety of reasons (his shit talking mostly).? But do you think the songs would be better with someone different writing lyrics and melody?? I know it all depends on who the other singer would be.? I really want to know people's opinion on this.? I just don't feel like Scott is the weak link in the band when it comes to songwriting.?

[darth monkey]

I don't know if it would be better or worse with a new singer but Scott is 100% responsible for the songwritting, the other members create the music. Scott also choose the songs to work on for Contraband. I wonder what some of the other material they came up with was like. I always love to hear them jam together.

[DeN]

compare what's the guys have made with Axl, and what they're doing with Scott, you'll have your answer.
