    I just don't want Scott to go!! :(

    Does anybody think that there is any chance that they'll stick together?

    VR were crap, so I don't really care.

    They had em... Slither, You Got No Right and Fall to Pieces, none of which were incredible, and that was about it.

    Anyway, fúck Dave Krushner(most pointless member of any band, ever) out and get Izzy on vocals and rhythm guitar I say.

    You've obviously never seen them live! :rolleyes:
    Krushner is actually great, didn't realise it 'til I seen them myself. Great stage presence!

    I wouldn't say out and out crap. They were alright. But, like other "supergroups"(Audioslave), it was never going to last beyond a couple of albums....? And there were too many ego's in the group. Same reason that brought down GnR, imo.

    Point in 2005. (Btw "you've obviously never seen them live" is one of the most annoying, condescending and pointless arguments ever. A lot of Muse fans seem to throw that one around a lot too. You don't need to see a band live to judge them, and a band can play their songs really well live and still be a crap band.)

    Those were my more naive years, when anything involving Slash was amazing by default.

    Not to say they weren't enjoyable live. Nothing special, just solid, entertaining(if a bit bland) hard rock from very experienced professionals(though the sound was HORRIBLE at that concert).

    And I thought Krushner was pointless back then and still think he's pointless now. Stage presence? pfft... I certainly didn't notice that, and whatever he did have was vastly overshadowed by the others.

    How can a band play well live and be a crap band? You might not like them, but that doesn't make them crap. Its a subjective opinion. Also some bands definitely come alive on stage and struggle to get the same energy on record, or just do something extra live that you can't get from the record. You don't need to judge a band. Its not a competition. You either like it or you don't.

    Ah would ya go away with your pedantic crap, you know what I mean.

    "X band are crap" = "I really don't like X band"

    Why do people have such a hangup about the former phrase?

    Oh and I said "a band can play their songs really well live and still be a crap band", not "a band can be great live and still be crap", there's a difference, namely being that if you play a crap song well it's still crap.(Although there are times when bands play thier songs completely differently live, and this can make average songs into amazing songs, but this is rare, and is not the case with VR and most bands I've heard being defended by the line "you obviously haven't seen them live").

    Ah would YOU go away with that nonsense.

    I was only trying to say that if you had have seen them live, you would possibly change your opinion on them.
    I loved them live! They played well and I don't agree about Krushner being useless.
    I don't see how me saying that by seeing them live and appreciating them more for it makes it any worse than you saying somebody is 'useless'.
    We both had an opinion. I thought you hadn't seen them live as I did not believe your post was a fitting description of them. Simple as.

    Take a breather... Everything's ok!! :)

    lol, I wasn't really referring to your opinion of them there, just disputing a point with BostonB.

    It's all opinion, but opinions exist to be disputed. :)

    Kettle black. Pedantic...

    ..."a band can play their songs really well live and still be a crap band" not "a band can be great live and still be crap"...

    Basically you don't like these bands. So if they play well live or not makes no difference to you.

    Saying somethings crap isn't a disputing a point.

    I never got into VR at all. Its a band I would like to like but just don't. Got there latest album and I've only listened to it twice. Just doesn't grab me. Pity because I like Slash, and I like the sound of the band. Not so fond of the singer, maybe thats whats putting me off.
