Rolling Stone' bets for VR new singer

[overmatik]

Guys, I can't believe you're even talking about this, with all due respect, but Fred Durst is a ghost of a singer, he's terrible.

Phil Anselmo, come on???

Gary Cherrone, well, great voice, but his time in Van Halen made us VH fans reluctant to him...

[Fingers]

Gary Cherone is getting ready to release a new Extreme record (I think this spring/summer) and they have a world tour lined up-I would count him out

[Lara]

Patton or Anselmo would be great. 

The rest of the RS list is just funny.

I can't see Cornell in VR.  He's fine on his own.

Trent Reznor...?  come on...

VR mixed with Trent Reznor would go something like this

"WHY! ARGHHHH WHY COULDNT YOU KEEP YOUR MOTOR CLEAN, YOU FUCKING PROMISED ME!!!""

Problem is, i think Idol has lost the source of his power!!!

haha the fist of cheese! 

[mrlee]

hahaha ^ "FEEL THE POWWWWAHHH" "last night a little angel...came pumpin on my floor"

imagine that cheese pumpin up the VR power a notch!

in fact, didn't billy reform with Stevens to do the 2005 album because VR's success inspired him?

in addition, Billy worked with Slash on that cover of In The Summertime also! Stevens has left the Billy Idol group again (i think), probably because of the Christmas songs.....

Rock List: Reader?s Picks for the Next Velvet Revolver Singer

Last week, we asked our readers to pretend they were Careerbuilder.com and help fill the Velvet Revolver lead vocalist job. Many sent in resumes, some candidates got second interviews, but the readers ultimately chose to save former Audioslave/Soundgarden singer Chris Cornell from solo album purgatory and employ him as the next band mate to Slash, Duff and the rest of VR. But the pick of Cornell wasn?t unanimous; here are the singers you want to see fill Scott Weiland?s shoes in Velvet Revolver.

1. Chris Cornell
2. Josh Todd from Buckcherry
3. Sebastian Bach
4. Eric Dover from Slash?s Snakepit
5. Izzy Stradlin
6. Gavin Rossdale
7. Mike Patton
8. Lukas Rossi from Rock Star: Supernova
9. Scott Stapp
10. Sammy Hagar
11. Billy Idol
12. Danzig
13. Kid Rock
14. Perry Farrell
15. Ozzy Osbourne

I just think he is a tad dark for the VR sound.

Sammy Hagar?  Danzig?  Perry Farrell, for God's sake?!?!

Most of those can't be serious.   Ugh.
