I think the shadow of the whole GNR catalog was the problem with VR to begin with.
How so?
It's not like they did very many from Slash and Duff's catalog - what, "It's So Easy", "Brownstone" and "Used To Love Her".
Why do they need to be able to do a bunch of GNR songs? Stand on your own.
Not sure what constitutes a bunch although if I go see Slash in any band setting and he doesn't dip into his back catalog I'm probably leaving disappointed.
