SLASH: "Velvet Revolver has lead singer audition coming up"
Cool that they haven't abandoned VR for good, but this doesn't mean anything other than an audition will be taking place. It could still be forever and a day, so I still won't be getting excited.

An upcoming audition is rather strange timing given the fact that Slash has a new album coming out soon and Todd Kearns says they will be touring behind it until 2016. So it is hard to figure out what is going on.

Means nothing. Once they find the guy, if ever, you won't even hear that he is auditioning

I think the singer of this group would be perfect for VR:

I'm bumping this because its the most recent VR thread...
I just want to say I ran thru all of Contraband this past weekend. I had bought a new copy, because I lost my CD of it and it was only 4 bucks on amazon.
Really a great record.. all the way thru... Headspace is my favorite track... and I don't think they played it live all that much. Scott was great on that record... If I had my choice.. the album wouldn't be totally inspired by his drug issues...but nonetheless... I wasn't a fan of his band... but loved his performances on this record.
I also couldn't help myself but wonder about Axl in regards to it. I wonder if deep down.. he liked it at all or if he would have considered those songs as GNR songs, or songs that would have inspired any lyrics out of him under better circumstances.
Can't believe its over 10 years since it came out.

Slither is a top notch song, one of the best Slash riffs and solos from anything he has done including GNR.
Its hard to think songs like Sucker Train Blues, Illegal I song, Loving the Alien, Headspace wouldn't be used if in an alternate universe it was part of GNR, however I do think that if Axl was a part of it the songs would have different forms, the riffs may be present but I think the songs would become more dynamic as apposed to being more of the straight rock song mold they are in.

I have not revisited that album in quite some time, but I think you both have inspired me to!
The beginning of VR was such an exciting time for GNR fans. Hell, even Jarmo was excited about it!

Contraband is a fantastic record, one of my favorites from the 00s. And most of it has to do with Scotts performance.
Libertad is great too. Yes i remeber when those came out, it was great but weird at the same time.
I am still bummed that my parents didnt give the permission to see VR live in 2007.
I could imagine Axl liking velvet, i think he likes stp.
Im not interested much in velvet without Weiland.

No kidding. Remember their very first tour, in the clubs, where scalpers bought out every single venue the first second tickets went on sale, and we all had to pay double top buy them off ebay? Still not bad, because the prices were like $21 and I ended up buying mine for $45. I saw them June 28, 2004 at the Electric Factory in Philadelphia, which was a week or so before the album came out.

I, of course like most of us became interested in this band because of Slash and Duff... but if they ever did go out under the title with a different singer...it would be a completely different thing..
It would be better untouched than going on with some other guy singing Scott's lyrics.
But again, just thought I;d share about listening to the album as a whole for the first time in a while really got me going. Blasting it in the car this weekend...was a lot of fun.

I hope that there is some reincarnation of VR. They were a superb live act and I selfishly would love to see them live again.

I disagree... VR died when Scott left the band... and attempts to replace him ... let's just say I am glad they didn't.
He was the singer, frontman and all the lyrics were based on his struggles.
You are right about Slash tho... he is doing VERY well with the Conspirators..very pumped to see them again at Terminal 5 in May.

I'm thinking about going to the Terminal 5 show since it is right after work. The much bigger issue for me is that with my disability I can't stand for 3-5 hours. I have to sit periodically otherwise I feel it the next day and have issues with walking. I paid the price for Hammerstein and chose not to go to Webster Hall as a result. So I'm iffy.

Hey man,
I just looked it up and there is handicapped seating available at Terminal 5. This is from the website:
Handicapped seating is available. Arrive 15 minutes before doors are scheduled to open.

Scroll to the bottom and you'll see it. I would contact them directly to hear what they have to say.
