or other potential VR singers that have crossed my mind:
 
Curtis Stigers
the dude from New Radicals
Frank Stallone
William Hung (singing the hit from Contraband, "Farr to Pieces")
one of the twins from the Proclaimers (if one is sick, they always have a spare)
Jon Secada
Antoine Dodson
Justin Guarini

Curtis Stigers is probably camped outsie Slash's house waiting for his chance...

I hate when they say Scott was "dismissed".

I liked VR but I just can't stand Matt Sorum  >:(

Ive always thought that the best "Replace" for a singer in VR, would be Lenny Kravitz or Lizzy Devine.

But apart from those 2, only Scott could fill the space in there :)

Because Lenny doesn't have his own successful career??
Please, he does waaaaaaaaaaaaay better by himself then with a "stick a fork in them their done" supergroup

He does have a successful career and he is veeeeeeeery well all by himself, but im just saying that the mix of the VR guys with his guitar playing and voice would be a blast.

They could get rid off Kushner with Lenny! lol

Lenny is a mix of Rock, funk & R&B. He is no where close to being VR material.
Why do you think Slash handed him the riff for "always on the run"? Because it was too funky for GnR
Lenny is NYC/PARIS/BAHAMAS/NEW ORLEANS. All those places influence his music .
VR is all about that hellhole called Hollywood.
It's a peanut butter and fried clam sandwich.

Notice SOREum is the only one who always "keep hope alive"?
Everyone else has other projects going on. BUT him. Hell, isn't Slash booked with tour dates til like may??
Someone needs to give SOREum a big hug & tell him "It's gonna be alright buddy, let it go..." lol

 ;D ;D ;D He's in his own little world thinking that VR is gonna take the world over, not realising that the others are really not that bothered.  I can just see him sitting in an "interview room" in his house, just him on his own being really serious about the process.  And Slash is touring the world taking drugs and screwing women..

No offense to G&R fans on this page.  It's just funny how self important this man is.

What?? Slash is certainly not taking drugs. He's been sober a long time...

The only name that's come up I'd be interested in them picking up is Corey Taylor. He'd still be a downgrade from Weiland obviously, but he's an interesting choice. If it's someone like Myles Kennedy or Royston Langdon though it's not gonna be anything worth listening to
When STP had a cookout after filming the video for the Core single "Plush," Weiland made jerk chicken that was "spectacular," Dean raves.

The ONLY thing Myles Kennedy done that I thought was good was with Slash on Starlight. Myles would not be a good choice for VR.
Pleased to meet you! Nice to know me!

There does seem to be a groundswell of opinion that it's Corey Taylor.

And I do think that could work. He certainly has the charisma and vocal ability.

My question would be - does he write much? I genuinely don't know.

My point being that Duff & Matt are not enough to rely on creatively and, since anyone who has read Slash's book knows, he's not able to help out much so Corey better have some ideas I think.

I still think if VR released an instrumental record it'd be more interesting than a new record with a new singer and the same old band name...

Didn't he relapse in VR?  Then again, that was a "long time" ago.   I was just being presumptious and annoying to make my point  ::) :P

Not that I'm excited for Scott's replacement here but I'm very curious as to who the new signer is. I did enjoy both albums.

Of course, I prefer STP over VR, no question, but gotta be honest and say that if STP & VR were ever to co-exist with Scott, I'd be on board. I always thought that they would work it out somehow. I figured it would be healthy for Scott in the sense that he seems to like reorganizing his furniture periodically. (a chance to miss the other group)

Clearly, that's not happening, so that's beside the point. (plus more STP is better anyway) Still wish they'd change the name though.
STP: 07.31.00 | 08.04.01 | 10.24.01 | 04.23.02 | 10.11.02 | 05.31.08 | 09.05.10
SW: 11.30.11 | 03.12.13 | 08.29.14 | 03.10.15
VR: 05.28.04 | 05.18.07 || AoA: 02.01.07
CheSTP: 09.06.13 | 04.25.15 | 09.20.15 || JeffTP: 07.28.18 | 09.15.19

I can not trust what Matt is saying... if they were THAT close Slash or Duff should be saying something too... and where's Dave? ... don't know... they've teased us before

normally I'd be apprehensive, but given that he has given us a hard deadline, I sincerely have hope this time
