I sure the fuck don't even fancy it to happen, if having to choose in betrween Jane's & VR. However, as them rumours float a-round and a-bouts, I do believe that a strong option would be MICHAEL MONROE from HANOI ROCKS. Hanoi was the OG band that almost solemnly got it all started back in the day, and paved way for sorts like GN'R etc. The plot gets thicker as news reported some time back that Hanoi is splitting up after decades of passionate rokkkin the shite out. Interesting times, interesting times...

He's proven that he can scream over some aggressive music when presented with it. I'd love to see this. Would be WAY more excited to see this than I would be for another VR cd with Weiland.

Whatever happens, if Libertad was anything to go by this band need a seriously talented songwriter to save them - not just a great frontman.

Not for nothing, but while it would be a stretch as far as having him perform the old songs live, and I've never been a fan of Perry Farrell, I think it might actually be a fantastic fit.Only time will tell.

I'm a fan of Perry's work in Jane's Addiction and even moreso in the criminally underrated Porno For Pyros. He'd add a whole new dimension to the VR vibe (less cock rock for sure) and his voice SOARS over anything a band can throw at him. Strategically, if VR wants to continue being a commercially viable and critically successful band, they need not only a recognizable "big name" singer, but also enough of a curveball that will excite and energize their existing fanbase. Sure, Perry might be a bit of a risk, but he's got a history of rocking the fuckin' planet and the (online) bickering will only heighten the anticipation for a third VR album. Let's face it: the dude from Spacehog wont excite anyone even if the songs are good. It's like when Genesis lost Phil Collins and recruited the rather talented singer from the barely known Stiltskin for "Calling All Stations..." The album flopped pretty damned hard, largely because Collins's departure left such a huge void that it would have taken another superstar to fill. Scott Weiland compensated for Axl quite well, and Perry would do the same. I actually share this little fantasy with you.
