Weiland Out Of Velvet Revolver

April 3, 2008 | ISSUE 44•14

Rock band Velvet Revolver has parted ways with singer Scott Weiland, saying in a statement that Weiland "wasn't 100 percent committed" to the fans or music. What do you think?

How can anyone measure up to Slash's professional standards of excellence?

If Weiland doesn't get sober, he'll end up just like Kurt Cobain. Actually, that's a bit extreme. He'll be more like Layne Staley.

It was a glorious run but after some albums and tours and interviews, I guess the time has come to move on.
