But with the recent shows that they've done without weiland on vocals, I think even at one asking for audience singers to come up and help, this won't be any good. The link says they got the opening slot for the Zepplin reuinion. Too bad robert plant has gone on record to say he will not be doing this tour. I guess everyone is just living in fantasy land.

(heh, heh). Even in Velvet Revolver's music (which I'm no fan of by any stretch of the etc.), the guy really can make a guitar sing. His tone is incredible, and his worst solos are often good at least. But watching this VR back and forth is just fucking irritating. It's not like this is a major band (and fuck the debut numbers, this band never was, isn't now, and never shall be a major band), but we're getting endless updates from them as if this is a band anyone will truly miss. Just....break.....up. Isn't it obvious that we all want a fucking GNR reunion? Just let us have it! I hope you’re wrong about Slash, Axl. (heh, heh).

My opinion is, Weiland is a douche and trying to throw his influence around to see what he can get away with. Slash should get out ASAP, he could do so much better Tbh, it’s a shame that this situation has got out of control.

Gibson sells a Les Paul with his name emblazoned all over it, Guitar Hero has his likeness in it's #1 selling game, he's on TV adverts for GH and was prominently seen on VW ads a very short while ago and his band has sold very well relative to the current music era. The hardcore metal heads here may find their music weak or not heavy enough, but with respect to relevancy, I'm betting Slash will be more of a household name into his 60s than any member of At the Soiled Gates of Mercenary Throwdown Seeing Through the Eyes of this Moment will ever be. Not that you have to be a corporate whore to be relevant, and not that those bands are not good, but c'mon...is this even an argument? Who would find Slash musically irrelevant??
