Velvet Revolver To Audition Online |

Guitarist Slash says Velvet Revolver will audition online to get a vocalist to replace Scott Weiland, who was dismissed from the band April 1.
"The band is actually talking about actually building a website [and] doing some auditions via that, so that's been something that's developing at this point," Slash told Billboard.com.
Weiland has said he will be fronting his former band, Stone Temple Pilots, this summer after he and the band split in a blast of venom earlier this month.
Velvet Revolver is scrambling for talent to cover upcoming engagements.
At a gig in Las Vegas, it plans a revolving door of what Slash refers to as "well-known people" to sing various numbers.
He told Billboard he doesn't know what the band wants from its next singer. "We're at that point of just listening to different things … it's one of those kind of situations where you can't really explain it to anybody because you'll know it when you hear it," he said.
Thanks for the info to CBC News.

: First.
Interesting way of doing it. I hope they release some sort of DVD which is full of horrible auditions, for the comedy value.
They should hire someone with a multi-octave operatic voice, just to annoy Scott Weiland fans.POSTED: 04/21/2008 - 03:36 am / quote |

Slash doesn't want to work with him because when they were touring he was a jackass who was doing it just to tour with slash and get shitfaced/high. He didnt feel like any of them were in it for the music, so says his bookPOSTED: 04/21/2008 - 09:42 am / quote |

Josh Todd was actually with the band back when it was still called "the Project". I don't really like the idea of him going back because I think that he sounds way too similar to Scott Weiland. Also, I think there is some bad blood there now. I personally would love to see Chris Cornell join the band but I think that's too many egos in one room. POSTED: 04/21/2008 - 02:50 pm / quote |

VR already had a show about trying to get a singer when they first started. It only ended in tears, and I'm sure the internet thing will too. Though I hope I'm wrong and they do get someone awsome, and quick too.

i believe they got rid of him already 
But idk if thats gonna work out since John Mayer seems to be interested in the position.

thats probably a joke becuase john jokes around like thatPOSTED: 04/21/2008 - 10:57 pm / quote |

wouldn't it be funny if they got Axl to sing. |
I'd find it fricken hilarious, and equally awesome at the same time, and then the band would be working on their terms rather than Axl's.POSTED: 04/21/2008 - 11:03 pm / quote |

Powerchild
: So I'd like to say that for the record, SCOTT WEILAND is the man, and that the reputation that the rest of the band has as team members is horrific. Anyone who is stupid enough to join that band must be more drunk than Sebastian Bach (who btw, in recent years, has NOT HAD A GOOD LIVE PRESENCE, which is probably why they didn't give it to him in the first place, along with his drinking and his attitude), and definitely more of a douche than Slash is. POSTED: 04/22/2008 - 12:08 am / quote |
Powerchild
: and by NOT A GOOD LIVE PRESENCE, I mean, his VOICE IS HORRIFIC. I saw a FIST reference earlier. Did anyone hear him on that show? he was sooo bad. the only time he sounded good was on the record, but then again anyone can sound good. look at Ashlee Simpson. Bach isn't what he used to be. They need to get someone like William Duvall, the dude who is singing for Alice in Chains. That dude is gifted! his voice is like everything that was ever good about 90s rock. I wish his band, Comes with the Fall, would go on tour. He doesn't need to front Alice. POSTED: 04/22/2008 - 12:11 am / quote |

: thank god he's gone! Don't get the wrong idea, Scott's voice is good, i just never thought it fit VR's music. I'd definately say that he sounds better in STP, IMO. But if we're all making suggestions, i agree with KingGhoma that they should get someone with a multioctave voice t piss Scott off. I'd totally suggest Myles Kennedy, but i don't think he could balance two insane bands.POSTED: 04/22/2008 - 12:54 am / quote |

: I got an idea, how about slash forms another band and closes the casket on velvet revolver completely. They've always sounded like a GnR wannabe band anyways, and im not saying that bluntly, for I don't really enjoy GnRs music. POSTED: 04/22/2008 - 03:37 am / quote |

That's because Slash is like 40% of Guns N Roses' sound, the only way to avoid that would be for him to not play, which kinda defeats the point of him having a band.POSTED: 04/22/2008 - 04:16 am / quote |

Exactly. Velvet Revolver were sh1t (ok they had a couple of kinda ok songs, but a couple of kinda ok songs from 2 albums is still sh1t for musicians like Slash and Duff), VR are not going to do anything worthwhile and they are kidding themselves if they think they can just bring in another random vocalist and make great songs with them. They should just split now and get it over with. Go back to G'n'R. Lay down a few tracks, add them to the best stuff from Chinese Democracy, then march the braid wearing fukker down to the record company at gun point and make him put the fukking album out!POSTED: 05/08/2008 - 12:59 pm / quote |

As much as I enjoy Scott Weiland, he fits waay better with STP. his original band, and everyone knows it. Im praying they make another record.POSTED: 05/08/2008 - 06:27 pm / quote |
