YOU can be Velvet Revolver’s new frontman
Everyone knows by now that Scott Weiland has left Velvet Revolver and found unconditional love, complete with open arms, in Stone Temple Pilots, who happen to be embarking on a sixty-five date tour come next month. However, that still leaves the ex-Guns N’ Roses members without a singer, which brings me to my question, “Do you want to be the next frontman for Velvet Revolver?” If the answer is yes (God help you), then you might be in luck.
According to the band’s guitarist Slash, the group are building a website to bring in singers over the next month.
He said: “The band is actually talking about building a Web site [and] doing some auditions via that, so that’s been something that’s developing at this point.”

If that wasn’t enough, then perhaps word of a small Las Vegas show, complete with various celebrity vocalists will have you itching for competition.
“I’m not gonna name any names, but a bunch of well-known people will get up and sing some songs, and then also bring up a couple people that we think are pretty good and might sing a couple songs,” he says. “So it’d just be for fun.”
Who here wants to tell these guys that the ’80’s are over with? If anything, they could shape up killer competition for American Idol… maybe they could even get that guy who thought he was a member of the Allman Brothers… Bo something?
Good Lord…

Slash is so awsome on the guitiar and i say that GNR’s axl got with VR, they will be the most badass band ever!!!!!
GO SLASH!!!!!!
I thank you need to give up on Axl his head is bigger than his body has been since G&R,,VR needs Chis Corenell he is awesome and he is a good singer he would complete VR.I wish the band would just try him out I thank he is better than Scott he’s good for STP yes he got VR on the map but Chris will take it to a new level.
Slash is sooo hot but he should go back to guns n roses velvot revolver is an ok band their song slither was good but GUNS N ROSES WERE THE SHIT AXEL AND SLASH MAKES A GOOD TEAM
check out this guy james cupples from australia… if you want to hear an awesome rock vocalist…
oiee carinhas eu achu vc’s muito locos bjhs bj sb bjs bjs bjs bjs
I realy hope velvet revolver finds a good singer, so that they not end up like G N’R Axl realy can’t sing any more he should just quit his carieer as a singer. The new stuff from chinese democracy is just shit.
…David Cook just won American Idol so his career should be floundering any moment… give him a call guys.
Lots of people like Sam Serinsky as Velvet Revolver new singer, I have never really heard of him though?
Ah, anonymous! It wouldn’t be a Monday morning without you. I agree. The Velvet Revolver gig has got to go.. but the new stuff GnR has made actually sounds decent.
So, I’ll be getting two Dr. Pepper’s then?
Please, no more! They should just get GNR back together. Velvet Revolver was so bad they should be in detention, and it is guaranteed that the new GNR record is going to suck. I’ll bet a dr. pepper on it.
