#4041 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » Are/Were you a Scott Weiland/STP Fan? » 916 weeks ago
I admit I didn't own any STP albums until Scott joined VR, but since then I went back and bought all the albums and I'd say I'm a big fan of Scott for his work in STP rather than VR. Their last album is my favourite. The band really found their groove and there's a great mix of trippy rockers and ballads.
But after the recent VR Aussie tour cancellation my patience for Scott Weiland is wearing thin.
It's hard to support a guy who doesn't seem to care too much about himself or his fans.
#4042 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » How often do you listen to Guns? » 917 weeks ago
I go through phases of my music listening, and I'll listen to a band for a week before getting sick of them and start listening to something else.
That said, I probably listen to Appetite the most in my general music listening, but sometimes the Illusions or TSI will get a fair bit of playing as well. I probably listen to Lies the least.

I suppose if there's any good news to cheer me up a little from the "Scott-just-fucked-over-the-Aussie-VR-fans", then STP getting back together might be it.
#4044 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » VR Cancels Australian Tour » 917 weeks ago
This pretty much ends my support of VR. There's no way I can bother thinking about buying tickets to shows & making plans when Weiland is continuously dragging this band down. Isn't this the 2nd time they've recently cancelled on Australia? Slash is so huge right now, he really needs to find another creative partner to make music with to capitalize on his fame. Time for Slash to wash his hands of Weiland.
Couldn't agree more.
And yes, they originally postponed from the dates they were supposed to come in December.
Get to work on that solo album Slash! 
#4045 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » VR Cancels Australian Tour » 917 weeks ago
Sorry for doubling up threads, but there wasn't one here when I typed up mine.
I'm pretty pissed off right now. The band should tour here anyway without him.
I'd be happy with Duff on vocals and them playing a bunch of covers. I was so looking forward to seeing Slash again...

CANCELLATION:
Velvet Revolver regret to announce they're unable to perform their upcoming concert dates in Australia that were scheduled for:
Brisbane Convention Centre Fri 15 Feb 2008 (previously Tue 4 Dec 2007)
Sydney Enmore Theatre Sat 16 Feb 2008 (previously Wed 5 Dec 2007)
Sydney Enmore Theatre Sun 17 Feb 2008 (previously Thu 6 Dec 2007)
The cancellation of these shows will allow lead singer Scott Weiland to continue treatment at a rehab facility which he voluntarily entered after the band's February 6 performance in Los Angeles.
Velvet Revolver deeply apologise to their fans in Australia and thank them for sticking by the group when various members have relapsed during the last year and a half.
Tickets purchased on the internet or over the phone will be automatically refunded back to the credit card used for the booking.
Customers who purchased tickets at an outlet should return to the point of purchase for a refund.
This is fucked.

Oh, and I'd recommend getting Music Bank, it's a very cool collection.
#4048 Re: Dust N' Bones & Cyborg Slunks » VELVET REVOLVER's Australian Tour Going Ahead? » 918 weeks ago
I hope these shows happen cause I just wanna see Slash, Duff, Matt and even Dave rip it up again, it's a shame that seeing them lies on Scott Weiland keeping his shit together...
#4049 Re: The Sunset Strip » Alice in Chains » 918 weeks ago
I love Alice in Chains. Haven't listened to them in a while, but they were up there with GN'R and Metallica as my all time favourite bands.
Jerry wrote most of the songs in AIC anyway, and his last solo album Degradation Trip had stuff on there easily on par with the best AIC stuff in my opinion. So I have no doubt they'll come up with the goods again. But without Layne in there, it definitely won't be the same.

BelowEmpty.com says:
There is a rumour going around L.A. that there's pre-production for new STP-material going on at Eric Kretz' Bombshelter Studios in Los Angeles. There's no word if the DeLeo brothers are involved, but according to the reports, Eric is laying down basis drum tracks for material that will be worked on once Scott wraps up the current Velvet Revolver tour on April 1st in Amsterdam.Just a rumor of course, but if that's the case... holy shit.
Holy shit indeed. Hope it's true, I reckon Scott's place is in STP rather than VR.
