Who Should the Next VR Singer be?

[Falcon]

Now picture Slash next to him giving a huge ass Wah Solo using passion and sex with a vocalist that can sing like that?!?!?!?! Home run if you ask me.  VR would be an amazing band!

Just not my thing, was never a fan of The Crowes nor Chris' solo stuff.

Don't be surprised if Brett Scallions name pops up...

JOEY FUCKING BELLADONNA

HAHAHA YES! I like that suggestion. I got to catch Joey live on the Anthrax anniversary tour and he was great. Not sure how he'd fit with the band but I think it's a much more original suggestion then some of the same ones I keep reading over and over in this thread.

Yah I saw the anthrax reunion twice, once where they played "among the living" from beginning to end. Anyhow, I think he'd fit better than people would imagine. It take the alternative, modern edge away from the band as well as the fashionable side and it would be a straight up dirty, balls out rock band.

Did not one fucking person like my Chris Robinson idea plus the youtube clip so you can hear him?  Slash needs a 70's style singer.

I love Chris Robinson its just that very similar to 90% of the suggestions in this thread I am 100% sure it's not going to happen so theres no reason to have any discussion over it.

Anyone mention Mike Ness from Social Distortion?  Wonder what he's up to these days.  I think he might be a decent fit.

Social D. is still around.  Saw em twice last year. Mike told the crowd they were gonna start work on a new album.

Great thought, but i doubt that would ever happen!! Mike Ness is a punk rock legend, he's not going to join VR

OK, maybe that was a bit delusional.  Just yesterday, I heard their version of Ring of Fire on the radio and thought his voice would work nicely with Slash's guitar tone.  Oh well.

If only he wasn't a fuck up and got along with Slash.  His voice is so powerful.

[Thorned Rose]

I always liked it at first, and even though slash didn't...

sebastian bach anyone?

I have heard that a well known established singer is going to replace Scott W.  if band is going to continue. It isn't going to be someone with a cult following, it is going to be someone that is know to be a front man and will sell...

Scott Stapp, Chad Kroeger and Chris Cornell have been rumored to be some of the names.

If it's either of the first two count me out as a fan. And I don't know where you get your rumours from....or if you're just making stuff up. but the latter two have literally zero chance of happening. As much as it pains me to say, Nickelback is probably the most successful current band in the US right now. Chads not going to leave them. And as I posted earlier Cornell has only said in about 5 trillion interviews since he left audioslave he does not want to be in a band again-EVER. Not to mention he is already working on a 3rd solo album with timberland. Sorry if I'm coming off as a dick but it's annoying when threads get bogged down with supposed rumours that have absolutely no legs to them.

HAHAHAHAHHA.  Chris would never leave the Crowes to sing for....those guys.

Thanks for the laugh, after reading lame Chinese Democracy jokes all day, this one made my day!

A video of new band minus dave...... ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BMo13]

To the guy who recommended James Michael.  I agree he is a a very good singer, but I highly doubt he would do it.  For one he's in Sixx:AM with Nikki Sixx and he's producing the new Crue album.  So he's probably gonna be busy for awhile.  I still think Hal Ozsan is the best choice for the new singer. Not only does he seem really cool, but he can sing and write with the best of them.  Check out the following two songs and see what you think of him in his old band.  (who by the way were the best young band i've seen in awhile)

Not sure why everyone keeps throwing famous singers out there.  I mean they already did that for 4 years and look how that ended. They should find someone who is not very well known and forge a new identity as a band. IMO

[deadtotheworld]

I think this guy is ready for a new job in VR....
