i started appreciating scotts performance when he fronted velvet revolver.... I didnt like STP at all. I think velvet revolver will never be this big if a replacement will ever be found!..... Chester benningtons voice of Linkin park is perfect for VR's music... I hope chester quit Linkin Park and joins velvet revolver
I remember watching Live 8, and up until this point it pretty much sucked. Then VR came on a kicked the shit out of everything and gave the concert a bit of bite it needed.
How did Ross slate them? If he did hes an idiot coz this was the best band of Live 8. Best VR performance ever and Ive seen them 3 times. Shame Scott left
Meh, Scott is a very hard personality to deal with. An addicted, bi polar, egotisical lead singer is not a good combination. Hell, four gigs into his STP tour, he spent an hour and a half in his trailer, pouting before he went on stage. He's extremely hard to deal with, he's like if Axl were a heroin addict (funny enough, axl never did anything worse than pot while he was with GNR_
common guys stop arguing about shit. music is what it is and thats what uve got apreciate about it yes velvet revolver rock to shit and yes original g n r rock to shit n new gn r rock slightly plus this gig was like about 3 years ago sad boys/girls :>
They are just biding their time, being respectful, and waiting for PINK FLOYD to come on.
Every living organism in the universe was waiting for PINK FLOYD to come on during Live 8.
(Slash still rocks though . . . not as good as David Gilmour who would slaughter one and all with his mindblowing guitar work later in the evening, but still good)
they were the best band at live 8 because they were different and had a bit of energy. no offence pink floyd, but a bunch of old men playing slow songs isnt too entertaining.
How can people compare Scott with Axl, they both are very individual with their styles. When Scott sings any GN'R, it sounds weird, and it would sound weirder with Axl singing VR. Just because Axl is more famous, doesn't mean he is better.
man alive, axl used to be good. now hes all full of himself! velvet revolver are the new guns n roses. i still love GNR over VR anyday, but they have taken over the job nicely
Here we have another pissed off Guns and roses wanker fan that cant stand the decendants of the band being successful. Of course Scotts not as good as axl , But get a fucking life and grow up, otherwise go and hang yourself with fishing line you cunt.
no doubt about it... they will be the greatest and single most dominant band in the rock and roll history!!!! may all the blessing be upon the VR... ROCK IT HARD WHEN YOU ROCK!!! VR FOREVER
well its not even the GNR, its juz axl rose.. n he owned the name GNR.. thats the only reason they are evern regarded as GNR.. when GNR was slash duff axl izzy n steaven.. they were unbeatable
scott sounds alot better since then, but you said just because slash is in the band, they're good, dont get me wrong slash is my hero, but seriously give the other guys some credit, slash isnt the only person in this band.
Axl ruined the original GNR and made it into shit new GNR with shit chinese hypocrisy album that will never be out. VR is way better than new gnr. ive seen both live and VR is the shit!
Dude that fuckin new GNR cd will never come out cause that fuckin Asshole Rose work on it too damn long and keep pushing back of the release. FUCK AXLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he didnt say velvet revolver equals new gnr, look closly its a greater than sign, hes saying vr r better than the new gnr, u no the one with just axl rose.
i do agree tho that u cant compare the 2, theyre too different. just agree theyre both gud at leave it at that
the songs r 'do it for the kids','fall to pieces','slither'-4 better quality recordings from the same concert u can search4 the individual titles&live8 - n', btw, i would say that <he's good> is a bit of an understatement, don't u think? >:]
Horrible resolution, and I have no clue what songs he's singing, but they sound good. And what's so bad about Slash? He's got flair, you have to give him that, and he's good.
every fucking velvet revolver video i go to people are arguing about how much axl rose is a dick and stuff. We know hes a fucking douche and he always will be shut up.
wot the hell are some of you on about? axl blackmailed the rest of GnR into handing the rights over to him. He deserves to be shot for that. VR debut album was insanely good aswell and Slash deserves to go own in history as on of the most distinctive and original guitarists ever.
AXL rose is a twat, vr are fucking amazing and chinese democracy are shit, axl rose came to my hometown did a show were the tickets were £45 and played 3 songs and decided he wanted his dinner and waster an hour and a half, then somebody threw a bottle at him which he deserved and left, if thats not being a wanker i dont know what is, ok fair enough the lead singer of vr is a bit of a nobb but axl is a bigger nob and gnr still made good music same for vr
i agree with bruce, scitt weilland is a complete asshole he should jus keep his mouth shut, and slash seem like an arrogant self righteous bastard where would he be without axl....nowhere
Axl is the kind of guy that lets the audience wait a whole hour for him to get his ass on stage, then doesn't even bother to apologize. He also changed his clothes like 7 times during that same concert, while the band had to cover it up by playing endless solos.
"i agree with bruce, scitt weilland is a complete asshole he should jus keep his mouth shut, and slash seem like an arrogant self righteous bastard where would he be without axl....nowhere"
Axl is an arsehole that fucked over the old Guns 'N' Roses, Scott was great in STP, sang break on through really well with the members of the doors that are still alive, worked well with Fred Durst and VR are one of the best bands since 02 - 03
