Slash says Velvet Revolver singer search is 'still ongoing'

[makane]

Steven is still the shit!

Yea. People are saying he cant play anymore... I thought he did great. I checked some videos from tube and Steven "still has it".

Really sad that he still carries on with the huge battle with drugs etc. 

I really think Slash should give him the last chance to play on his solo album, that would definitely give him some motivation to come clean.

only problem with that is getting two junkies together; one somewhat rehabbed and the not so much rehabbed; before you know it, they'll be doing blow and shooting speedballs

Yea that could happen or Slash could help Steven get over his drug problem once and 4 all

[Jdog0830]

Yea i suck at mixin 2 but that website looks good

[Smoking Guns]

Didn't matt also say the guy they liked a lot was from Europe?  Hmmm

[Butch Français]

this guy is great, hope they get a hold of him!
and yeah, Ive been saying for years that Adler still "has it", he definately does. just hope he cleans up his act once and for all, which I am doubting he can do.

[Jada]

Cool, I like his voice. (But not necessarily their songs, so go ahead.. join VR.) 

[Jdog0830]

Yea everyone here is agreeing that Phil Conalane should be the new VR singer
and that would be fuckin sweet

[ShotgunBlues1978]

I really hope they just pick a nobody who kicks ass and make an uncompromising album.  Release it on a bigger independent label and do club and theater shows.  I'd be happy with another album as good as Contraband

[Jizzo]

i just downloaded the million dollar reload album off itunes, sounds tight, hope hes the one

[D]

Fingers crossed they keep searching

This dude is following Axl and Scott..................... I don't think so


Thats worse than Gary Cherone following Dave and Sammy or the Phillipino Journey singer.

nah, they need to find a really talented songwriter and singer like this guy. I hope they don't get another previous frontman of a big band. I mean, who else is there by now except Perry Farrell?

oh yes....I would REALLY love it if Perry was their next singer. but that will never happen in a gazillion years.

edit: if anyone says Phil Anselmo...I will strangle you to death.

[D]

Honestly, my vote would be to get back with Scott and try to work it out.

[Smoking Guns]

Honestly, my vote would be to get back with Scott and try to work it out.

VR + Scott Reunion = Epic Fail

[Jim Bob]

Honestly, my vote would be to get back with Scott and try to work it out.

VR + Scott Reunion = Epic Fail

yea, on Slash, Duff, and Matt's part.

Cuz basically it would just be Scott got to go do what he wanted to do and came back while the other guys were back to trying to find a singer. 

[GNR4L]

Honestly, my vote would be to get back with Scott and try to work it out.

VR + Scott Reunion = Epic Fail

yea, on Slash, Duff, and Matt's part.

Cuz basically it would just be Scott got to go do what he wanted to do and came back while the other guys were back to trying to find a singer. 

Personally, I think Slash should stick to the solo career, Duff go on with his band loaded, Matt with camp freddy, Dave

Scott keep doing what your doing your solo album is 10 times better than VR's last record.

[western_chaos]

A lot of things are better than VR's last Record.  lol.

Yeah, I hope vr finds a new Singer cause I don't want them to give up right now.

[Drew]

Honestly, my vote would be to get back with Scott and try to work it out.

VR + Scott Reunion = Epic Fail

Yeah, I agree. It was tried once and failed. Let's not go back there again.

Irish singer ?flattered? by Velvet Revolver rumours

12/12/2008 12:46pm

Phil Conalane, singer with Irish rockers Million $ Reload, has responded to speculation that he is about to join Velvet Revolver as their new frontman.

Speaking exclusively to Classic Rock, Conalane interestingly did not issue an outright denial.

He commented: ?I?m guessing you were pretty surprised when your ?source? informed you that I was to be the new Velvet Revolver singer. So was I! This rumour was certainly NOT started by me nor anyone within the Million $ Reload camp.

?I don?t regard your original story as nonsense. Since Duff [McKagan] remarked to an Irish newspaper that he had been keeping an eye on an Irish singer, but that he wasn?t too keen on disturbing the band he was in, the story has been going around ? Ireland?s a small island, so not too many rock singers!

?Most of the stuff that has been written about us is true. Kerri Kelly [Slash?s Snakepit] is a buddy, we?ve played with Steven Adler and Gilby Clarke, and most of the other stuff that?s been said.

?But it is sad to hear that some people regard this story as a cynical publicity stunt by Million $ Reload. After all it is quite unsettling for the rest of the band to hear your singer could be leaving, with tours in Europe and the US planned for 2009.

?Although having said that, I have received hundreds of emails from all over the world this week, the US, Brazil, Australia etc, from VR fans giving me support. Some of the comments that fans have been posting on various forums are amazing . It?s all quite flattering, really.

?Who should be the next VR singer? That is a tricky one. Scott Weiland will be hard to replace? but not irreplaceable. It is a fantastic opportunity for whoever lands the job.

?There have been several names rumoured, apart from mine, over the past few months. Ultimately it?s a decision for VR. Maybe they will put the original GN?R line-up back together? Wouldn?t that be something!?

Hmm. That?s cleared that one up, then?
