I kind of took Slash's word that the first snakepit was just a fun thing to do inbetween guns n roses, just kind of thrown together and recorded quickly-but in interviews about Aint Life Grand, he mentioned how it was a permanent band, and how he put his heart and soul into it-and after hearing it, I was very disappointed. It sucked.

I think all the guys from the second snakepit (minus Slash ofcourse) will do some kind of snakepit again...

Why? They are involved in all kinds of projects, why would they pull out and reform a fantastically unsuccesful band without the one person that made the band talented?

I'm sorry but I wouldn't know the answer to this one. You'll have to ask them, IF they do it. Last I heard was when they were still thinking about it.

Who'd be the guitarist Ryan Roxie or Keri Kelli? And who'd be the other (lead? rhythm?) guitarist?

Keri. I don't know about the other one.

Thank You. I'm really looking forward hearing that album, both Snakepit incarnations had a lot of potential. And they will call it simply Snakepit or what?

I'm not sure how will they call it. At this point I'm not even sure if it's going to happen. I'll try to find out.

I was never a fan of Weiland before VR either.  In fact I'm still not a very big fan of his.  I happen to prefer him to Eric Dover.  If you prefer Dover, MoonMax, that's cool.  It's all personal taste.  However, have you ever seen either perfom live?  Scott Weiland is one of the best live frontmen I've ever seen.  I highly doubt Eric Dover had that presence on stage.

OK,  you guys must be kidding,  right!?
Both Snakepit albums are great but ALG is better.
Actually,  both are better than Contraband and ALG ison the same level as any other GNR album (better than Lies,  though).
Rod Jackson is great and Eric is good unlike Scott.
Compared to him,  even Axl  looks like a singer.

Eric Dover sang on a band called Imperial Drag after Snakepit, with former Jellyfish bandmate Roger Manning. Whent that ended he played guitar on tour with Alice Cooper, reccommended by Gilby Clarke who turned down the position. After touring and recording (co-writing also) for the The eyes of Alice Cooper record, he went to finish recording and preparring his solo proyect Sextus, that has benn in the works for 5 years aprox.

Rod Jackson has been unseen after the Snakepit worldtour, he has record some demo tunes like "Heavy Reggae" with Teddy Andreadis and Johnny G, from 2nd Snakepit, but from that no news available

Did Gilby really turn down an opportunity to tour with Alice Cooper?

I think Eric's been playing with The Starfuckers, alongside Slim Jim Phantom and, yup, Dizzy.

As someone said earlier, he made an album with a band called Imperial drag, which spawned a semi-hit in Europe, "Boy or a girl". Very glam-rock oriented, and not too bad.

I still think it would have been neat to hear the project Duff, Slash, and Izzy were working on a few years back-Izzy is a great songwriter, which is what the second Snakepit was missing-I'm not so sure about Slash as a songwriter.
