VR is back. New album & Tour!!

[rebelhipi]

i just hope that slash dosent screw this up again. i agree with bodhi here some of his solo stuff is ok but putting myles??one singin style?? kennedy band over vr is really fucked up.

and if hes not feeling that he dosent belong to vr anymore he should quit and get a new guitar player.

[westcoast_junkie]

The only meaning all this talk has is that there will be no Slash. I mean, Scott sounds absolutely positive about it and Slash seems positively unaware. Perhaps they will get another lead guitar player...

What about Steve Stevens? Duff and Matt are friends with him, and in my opinion it would work out great.

Steve Stevens?  Thanks for the laugh 

Don't believe this is time for speculating. As Cotis say, there'll be a long summer/autumn without VR. A lot can change. Maybe we have a better basis of speculation in October?

What the hell is going on?

You should listen to Slash's reaction to this story (http://legacy.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=173967).

When they tell Slash Scott said "they're in beginning of the writing process" -- he says WHAT?!

Slash says "he's [Scott] out of his mind."

Slash's "WHAT?!?" reaction was hilarious lol

Haha I have never heard Slash be so emotional about something.  That is brilliant.

Scott has problems I do not know what his latest game is. He could be screwing around with the other STP band members. I tweeted Matt also but he has not answered yet.

Indeed, haha.   

I have to say I wonder why Slash prefers his current band. Because he got all control, and there's no "danger" element to it? They bragged quite much about that danger and chemistry when VR were rollin'.

Yeah, but the type of "danger" that VR presented became a problem to the forward progress of the band.  And yes, Slash DOES want all the control so that he can prevent certain things from happening again.  Maybe there's no "danger" in whatever sense of the word that you mean, but at least it's more concrete.  They write songs they like, they record, they tour and play them for fans.  End of story.  Nothing holds it up.

I'd love to see a VR reunion with all the original members (saw them live in 2004 and they were awesome), but I'm not holding my breath.  I like Slash's solo band so I'm happy as a fan either way.

[faldor]

Sounds pretty clear Slash wants no part in a VR reunion.  I would've liked it, but obviously it's not up to me.  This news was shocking this morning, as it seemed like VR was a distant memory.  So it makes more sense now that Slash has shot it down.  Plans for VR are obviously on hold until Slash is done having fun with his solo efforts.  And who knows how long that will be.

[Fingers]

It is funny-maybe they were trying to keep this from Slash, and Scott spilled the beans-I think they don't want to wait around a year for Slash

[Fingers]

Slash's "WHAT?!?" reaction was hilarious lol

That 30 seconds or whatever was the funniest Slash interview ever-an instant classic.

[nick6sic6]

What is going on really ? 
After their short reunion show Scott seems more mellow.He was on drugs when VR fell apart as was Matt anyway.

[DeN]

thx for the laugh Mister Weiland

Haha I totally agree.  Its his true reaction to hearing the news for the first time.  You can hear the disbelief in Slash's voice when he says "hhheeeee did not.... he's out of his mind" and then when he says "WHAT".... as you said, instant classic.

If Scott is making all this up to pull some power play with the STP guys, then it's just further proof that the VR boys don't need to take him back and may be some insight on why they canned him in the first place. I like the guy's stage presence but....issues.

[Top-Hatted One]

I think it could be true but slash would prefer he not spill the beans while slash is on tour with a record that comes out next tuesday

No, I think his reaction was genuine shock at what he was hearing. Slash is either out of the loop or Scott is talking out of his ass. Duff's tweet would seem to indicate that it's Scott.
