If Slash says there is going to be new music next year someone has to sing it. How can he be so sure after all this time that he is going to find a singer.
Cos despite what they might say..... i don't believe they have ever devoted any serious time to it.
We know Franky Perez would do it in an instant but im sure they're holding out for someone better.
Good Point!
For sometime now Slash has maintained that VR will come back together in 2011. He knows about Duff's situation and he knows that he must have a singer. I think it is highly possible that he knows something we do not.

Slash interview
- Full transcript
Date: 16 June 2010
What?s the current status of Guns N? Roses and Velvet Revolver?
Velvet Revolver?s just on stand by. I?ve got this tour to do, so when I get done with this I want to get back in earnest to try and figure out who?ll do the singing chores with that band and make another record. With Guns N? Roses the status is the same now as in 1996 - really there hasn?t been any change.
What have you got planned next?
This tour goes into February, so I don?t like to look too far down the road - keeps me more in the present - so that?s basically it. Then I want to get back to the Velvet thing and whether I?m gonna do any other odd kind of solo record still remains to be seen, but right now it?s about going out and doing this fucking tour.

This doesn't sound quite as definite...
Slash: Velvet Revolver to look for new singer next year
02 July 2010
Speaking to STV news shortly before he took the stage at Edinburgh's HMV Picture House, the former Guns 'n' Roses star said that although the band was taking a break, next year could see them starting over with a new front man.
Speaking about the band, Slash said: "It's sort of on hiatus, we're still listening to singers and trying to find the guy who is the proper front man for that band, and so next year we are going to get together we're going to listen to a bunch of demos and see if theres anybody in there who is a really great rock 'n' roll singer."
Velvet Revolver parted company with singer Scott Weiland in 2008 when he annouced at the band's gig in Glasgow that it would be their last tour.

Slash, here's a hint......you've been on stage with him for 3 months now.
At this point I have zero interest in VR really, and even less in a version that has someone other than Myles singing.
At this point I wouldn't mind Myles/Slash doing their own thing together and seeing where it goes. His solo album felt fresh, and I don't really want to hear old VR stuff they have been sitting on.
Slash is screwing himself if he isn't planning on doing something with Myles when AB is over for that album cycle because he is not going to find anyone better suited or more versatile to lead the band. He's a good writer, and they have good chemistry together. When you show the fans the level you are capable of being at with a guy and then bring in someone less talented (which is what inevitably will happen) it is a step backwards and a major buzz kill.
Myles is the most talented guy he has worked with since Axl, and it is not coincidence his level of play is significantly higher right now than it was in VR when he appeared lazy often times, and on par if not surpassing how he was on the Illusions tour.
Slash is playing like a man possessed right now, and I am convinced it has everything to do with having a top flight singer on stage with him who will make the songs sound good if he stays focused and keeps his head on straight. The fact he also happens to be baggage and drama free is all the more reason to find a way to keep him in the fold.

Yeah those VR demos that leaked with the shitty singers.. im not really interested in those.
GET FUCKING MYLES!
If Duff and Matt aren't down, fuck them and just start a new band.
Myles IS the guy
and after this next AB album, Myles is free to leave. AB are dead.. they have what a 3 month shitty club tour? U think Myles is allergic to money and playing hundred thousand seat festivals with people singing every lyric and pumping their fist.
I'd feel way more like a rockstar singing with Slash and doing GNR stuff, VR stuff etc.. then playing AB stuff to a very small cult following.
Just me though

Why not just keep this band, and perhaps even let Todd Kerns ( the bass player) sing a song or two.
Slash's band is kicking ass on every song, and Slash seems rejuvenated and is having a lot of fun out there.
When Slash plays with VR, Matt in paticular, they get caught in a very similar groove. Matts beats are always similar / recycled. I'm not saying Matt is a bad drummer, he just extremely lazy.
Here's hoping this band stays together.

Slash's current touring band sounds great, I'd be happy if they entered the studio together for a new album of new Slash tunes.
I agree that finding a singer for VR better than Myles just ain't gonna happen.

What a terrible comparison! Gn'R circa '96 is nothing like VR circa 2009-2010...unless Scott Weiland took the name w/ him and started his own band. Last I checked STP isn't going by VR, nor should they. I'm still convinced the only respectable (and by respectable I mean path of least hypocracy) way to proceed is bring Scott back OR get Izzy to sing and play rhythm guitar. Getting anyone else wouldn't be VR. For all the pissing and moaning Slash did about losing the Gn'R name he is doing the same exact thing if he brings in another singer and calls it VR.

Where exactly does Slash make a comparison?
He says the GN'R situation hasn't changed for him, he left in 1996, and he's still out of the band, so nothing has changed for him in that regard. And VR is on standby without a singer.
So why are you getting all riled up, when Slash didn't even compare the two? You just did.
