Velvet Revolver To Part Ways With Scott Weiland

[jarmo]

I dont post here often but i am really curious how you would react 5 - 10 years from now if axl, slash, duff & izzy reunited for a tour what your reaction would be. You really seem to dislike like these guys.

As I've said before, I'll "worry" about that then.

If Axl decides one day that it's a great idea to go back to having the old line up together, I'll support him.

Just like you guys follow and support Slash/Duff (and SpiritDave supports Matt), I support Axl. 


No, I don't dislike all those guys. Only certain peoples' ways of doing and saying things.

I hope you're happy with that answer and realize that I don't need to agree with everything these guys say just in case there's a reunion years from now. Maybe that explains why there's Matt fans.....

I'm a little late, but who didn't see this happening?  The day VR announced Weiland was going to be the lead singer was like the beginning of the countdown to his demise.  It was only a matter of time before Weiland screwed himself out of the band.

Now I hear STP are planning a reunion, lol.  The guy doesn't waste any time does he?

So long, Scott.  Nice to see you vacating a world in which you never really cared about or fit in to begin with.  Stick to what you know.

Joshua Todd would be an interesting choice to replace him.

What you talk about is a classic example of someone who knows how to suck up to the right people  and only show his real face to he ones he knows won't be believed.... Ronnie James Dio is known to be one of those too, always sucking up to media people and kissing the butts of fans... but being totally nasty to the ones he works with.. just ask his former employees

We all got friends we know are pricks, yet we still hang out with them, so your theory is baseless   

I met Slash once backstage, he basically said to get rid of all backstage fans in the hallways and he refused aggressively he wouldn't sign "shit".... amazing guy.

What do you really know about Dio and and his former employees, and what does that have to do with anything here? 

Personally, I choose not to hang around with people who are pricks.  Maybe you might know a little more about people who come across as arrogant pricks, than what I do, however.       

As for meeting Slash, I've heard stories from a lot of people who have met him, and I have my own, and the stories are just the opposite.  Maybe it was just you, I don't know.....

Read again then maybe you will understand, and stop PM-ing me with insults, ok, cupcake?

There are many cases where I've heard opposite. We are supposed to base our idea of Slash around one encounter with ONE fan? Maybe he was in a crappy mood? Maybe he didn't get the right vibe from you? Where you supposed to be in that area?

I did understand.  I did not PM you with any insults.  Like I said, you might know a little bit more about arrogant pricks, than what I would.  Anyway, this is getting off topic.  You got anything more to say?  It won't be here.  And there's no need to continue to refer to me as "cupcake".   

[SpiritDave]

Even Jarmo and other Matt haters would have to agree, that's pretty much the right thing to do, considering what a bad thing he was arguing against!

Don't get me involved in your little Matt lovefest. 


The truth still is that during this time when everything was wrong according to him, he was happy to be part of the biggest band in the world and wouldn't even quit when he was asked if he was gonna. Just so he could be the martyr.....





/jarmo

Well, I was simply highlighting the fact that what Matt did was for the good of the band ... and you know what ... ?  I suspect he stayed because he believed in the band ... or what it could be and what it was.

Nope, you didn't understand because you made the same assumpion yet again, cupcake

PS: cupcake isn't an insult, but what you reffered to me as, is.

Me and the about 30-35 people backstage who were shoved out by security because Mr Slash wanted it, while we all had backstage passes and it was no problem for the other VR members. Lost the last bit of respect I had for him that day 

I am not saying he is always like that, in fact he is very clever in hiding this part of his most of the time... but he ain't a fan's Mother Theresa like most here try to portray him.

Or maybe he did it because it was good for him?

He believed in the band?

Maybe he just believed that it would be best for Matt Sorum to stay in the biggest band he ever was in, instead of quitting?

No one said he was perfect jesus dude. Clever in hiding it? So if one day I blow up on somebody and I act like an ass I'm clever in hiding it , NO I was just in a bad mood. Would you like to have 30-35 people surrounding before you are going to go play a concert whilst many other things on your mind?

[fuckin crazy]

PS: cupcake isn't an insult,

Most people interpret condescension as an insult.
