It was such a stupid statement. Weiland couldn't do "Welcome to the Jungle" because he just wasn't that kind of singer. He had his own style and range, and what he did with that was great (as long as he wasn't wasted). And if we're comparing song catalogs, I'd rather be responsible for the vocal melodies and lyrics in STP's songs than Skid Row's.

It’s an absolute shame that Scott was a mess for the majority of the time Velvet Revolver was together. When Scott was straight, he was a very polite and pleasant human being to be around. But when he was wasted he pretty much lost all his morals, even he said that.

He was a gentleman when I was out with him and the guys one night. He was never once inappropriate, he didn't try to touch me in any sexual way, the closest thing he did to asking me to touch him was asking me to feel his hair (because I touched his roadie's long hair and said it was soft and he wanted me to feel his soft hair lol). He was clearly attracted to me, but was respectful and polite. I think the only time he really touched me is when I sat in front of him between his legs as we went down the slide at Club USA in NYC. This was NYC September 16 1993, and we'd flown from LA to NY for the band to do SNL that week. We were up all night at the Paramount Hotel, but I noticed Scott dipped out for a while, and I think he went and did some coke by himself. I didn't use drugs of any kind. I guess I'm lucky I never saw him really wasted. I might have had a very different opinion of him.

I was told the story behind that. The GNR guys kept insisting Travis was the guy for the gig and kept pestering him. Travis didn't want to do it until finally he flew out to L.A. and jammed on a few songs with them. One of the titles was called Sick. They were impressed by his vocal abilities but he didn't really have the "look" as he had shaved his head around that time. He said it was a fun experience but that he was an artist and they were "actors". He wasn't into the whole rockstar thing. Ultimately it went to Weiland which I think was a good choice. I think Travis would have been better off fronting The Doors instead of Ian Astbury.

In many ways, when you say or even think "supergroup", you know the end result: great music, major friction. It makes sense, friction produces heat, right? Correct me if I'm wrong but the ORIGIN of the word 'supergroup', Cream, was insanely GOOD because all three members were competing with each other in a clash of egos, and at one point I understand they positively hated each other as well.

I'm thankful for Velvet Revolver. I really enjoyed some of their music no doubt. They helped usher in a short era of super groups along with Audioslave. We also got Army of Anyone(Filter+STP) and Chicken Foot(Sammy Hagar, Chad Smith, Michael Anothony). I think it also sparked other artists in the music industry to branch out: like the guitarist from A Perfect Circle(Billy Howerdel) to create Ashes Divide; and members of both metal bands, Fear Factory and Threat Signal, to create the band Arkaea. While Supergroups weren't a new concept(Temple of the Dog springs to mind, and of course music history has plenty of others), there's no denying the rippling effect that Velvet Revolver and Audioslave had at the time.

I’m sure they based it off of a two beer selection, oddly enough kind of a transpired from there when you realize what exactly was going on, but at the same time, he didn’t realize that he would’ve taken his side over the actual friend because of the circumstances regardless of how poorly one was being treated

What a coincidence that this video came out when I just started heavily listening to their two albums again. Their debut is an album which I appreciate more with every passing year. Although there isn't a single song that ends up being an absolute classic, man, do several songs came damn close! But they were right that the 2nd album needed to be even better than the first. It does include 'Last Fight' which, for my money, is the best song they ever made. 'For the Boys' and 'Gravedancer' is nice tracks too, but much of it feels very underwhelming and filler worthy.

Velvet Revolver was overhyped because three members were in GN’R, but blew over quick. The public caught on to that too. The first album did well, but the second bombed, and they broke up right after. Side note: They were an ‘all star’ band, not a ‘supergroup’. The term ‘supergroup’ got used too much in those days. An all-star band has famous members of other bands. A supergroup is a large scale band that has sold albums in the high millions and can fill stadiums globally.

I met all members of Velvet Revolver except for Slash when I was working at Burbank Airport (was called "Bob Hope" airport back then). The only one that wasn't really cool was Scott. Never got to meet Slash but all of my coworkers have said that he was always cool. Scott just seemed like a pouty, whining bitch; seemed like he was mad because he had to go through the same process as everybody else. That girl from the videos was with him and she was all over him but the vibe he gave was that he hated her guys and was only tolerating her presence. Almost like she was nothing more than a chaperone; hired by the rest of the band to keep him off drugs and on time. That's the vibe I got anyway.

Id like to hear the Josh Todd stuff, but I REALLY want to hear the Corey Taylor stuff !! I dont think Josh could "sing" in a way that Slash would prefer, and Im certain Josh & his guitarist were partying, & that definitely wasn't going to fly.

Why anyone would say the Illusions are their favorite two albums of all time is baffling, especially when you could choose AFD. GnR would have been better served taking the best material from both albums and putting out just one.

M. Shadows whose band ripped Metallica pretty well. VR's first was good. The 2nd was a yawn. I saw a documentary about VR being put together. Duff and Slash should've been the guys putting the band together because they have the clout. Sorum was whining about having a singer that was known because of sales. I think he pushed for Weiland. I think if they went with a hungry singer they would've been good

Hoobastank was awful. They made awful music. Velvet Revelover released two very good albums. Scott Weiland was a mess... but damn if he isn't rhe best live peformer I have ever seen. Wish Scott could have gotten well. Wish he was spending time with his family and still making music. I just wish he was still with us.
