The industry has changed and evolved and making albums isn't the bread and butter of the music industry any more. Touring is were the money is generated in today's music industry for all artists. The promoters have the leverage over artists, as the demand is in people wanting to buy concert tickets then albums leaving record labels powerless compared to the control labels had in the music industry over the past decades. Yeah I know. I was just stating the obvious... A bit like Captain Obvious 😉 You never know... A new tour might bring a new album!?

If Corey Taylor wasn't good enough I don't think there's many out there that'd cut it. I'm grateful I made the most of the VR years and saw a lot of gigs. When you think about it VR only lasted 4 years which is less than the current Guns reunion. 2 albums to Zero Yeah, well, even though I listened to YouTube recordings of Corey doing Slither and other GNR material, he never cut it for me as a VR singer. I don't know whether or not you listened to James Michael and Sixx: A.M. but that guy knows how to sing... he isn't raspy as Corey but definitely has that Scott sound to his voice and can reach higher octaves. Also a better singing ability, songwriting not so much... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaya Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 (edited) VR had a good run. Those songs, vids, are still good, real rock n roll. ScottW was a good frontman. Unfortunately...drugs just don't work. SabastianB would have been a good frontman and he is still alive. I doubt VR will come back. Slash n Duff have moved on and have other stuff.

rocknroll41 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 If you ask Alan Niven tho, he’d tell you that VR did in fact come back, since according to him, the NITL lineup is really just “Velvet Roses”! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amaya Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Then Niven is off there. Slash, Duff are only GnR from VR, their band, in GnR NITLT. Like I always say, Not Ever In This Lifetime will you see Slash, Duff, Axl, Izzy, Steven, and Matt on stage together. They could have all done a NITL tour ,even this new old tour for 2020, just House of Blues clubs. Short run. Like I always say, read between the lines. Look at right is in front your face for proof. I was just watching VR on you tube and Izzy showed up, guest for a Mr.Brownstone, during one of VRs shows. That was , of course, so long ago. Thing is you had Duff, Slash, Matt ,their band, but they invited Izzy. RnR H of Fame. No Izzy and Axl. Izzy did play as a guest for Nu GnR of Axl's years, years ago. These guys are all over 55 now. They need not one day all show up together at one of their funerals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Predictable" or not, it could have been awesome. But now, Slash doing anything outside GNR would mean GNR not being in the studio. Screw that. Nah it would've sounded too 80s. With Scott it sounded more contemporary. On 2/22/2020 at 3:51 AM, default_ said: I honestly think Scott was the weakest link on VR. Id be fine id they reunited, but that will never happen. I agree. The biggest thing about BE was Slash and that he had Matt and Duff with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lethalis Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 (edited) 2 hours ago, scooby845 said: more like something between Libertad and Chinese... Libertad had a strong Scott Weiland influence. Contraband was more Slash / Duff (and Matt / Dave) sound with lyrics written later. Funny thing is Contraband and Chinese are nothing alike Edited February 25, 2020 by Lethalis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
