Anything is possible but I can't see Lenny fitting in with Revolver.

If it's not Sebastian Bach I have no interest.

Dude, Bach would be awesome in VR. I don't think Lenny would be a great fit but Bach, now that could work.

Mkaes so much sense to me...not sure why that hasn't been explored by all parties. Seems like a perfect fit to me.

Yep, and Bach is a true front man unlike that fuck they had. I still don't understand how that ever happened. Bach could take those guys a long way. The key question is whether they can all get on or not. Bach does have a habit of letting drinking get in the way. I'm not sure where Slash and the boys are but I suspect they are old enough that Bach's bs won't go far. Now if Bach has straightened up, what out!

Agreed ,that would be a step backward

JSS could front VR and make a great fit. He'd be enough of a fresh face that it'd be like a new band rather than a famous faces rehash.

My money is on someone like Perry Farrell or Chris Cornell.

There is no chance that they pick someone who isn't famous already.

I agree, I think JSS would fit VR's persona quite well.

Yeah, I think so too, from an artistic standpoint, but after Axl and Weiland, don't you think those boys have had enough of the crazy???
Plus, Slash has worked with Lenny alot over the years (the MAMA SAID album is kick ass!) and I can see this working.

That's what was reported on the radio Friday here in Dallas.


Spacehog was a great band....I also heard that they are gonna do some shows and maybe a new cd.


so at this point, who knows.

Apparently that ship has sailed and as of now its rumoured to definitely be Kravitz...until it 'Falls to Pieces' anyhoo!

Nope. Matt Sorum has blown that rumour out of the water already.

God I hope I don't end up eating my words here! :lol:

I love Lenny. I have a lot of respect for that dude. He is definately his own man, a talented and compassed one at that.

If they continue in the direction of Libertad (not as old school, not as heavy), then I think Lenny would fit in fine. Wouldn't be the first time an established solo artist joined a band.

After Lenny's last album, I hope this is true because his last album was terrible. Sounded like demos that were never finished. I dig Lenny's music, but not his last one.

Lenny Kravitz would be a death sentence for this band. He sucks. I highly doubt they'll pick him. Bach is miles better than Kravitz and a better fit from a creative standpoint.

I don't see how any band that isn't being paid by Bach can get along with him.

Good point. He is a prick. I still think he's worth the chance. Lenny Kravitz...lol. :roll:

Same thought here. Odd choice.
Still hoping for Bach. Have been since before they picked Weiland. :D

Bas, while I like the guy, is a joke! It would be commercial suicide for them to hire this has been. He's on the "GONE COUNTRY" show this season, for fucks sake! Plus, he's best buds w/ Axl (to hear HIM tell it anyway) and they passed on him the first time, so why go to him now? Nope, Kravitz, like him or not, makes a helluva lot more sense. He still has a good bit of credibility as well.

VR belittled Bach in a very recent interview and made it very clear that he was not under any serious consideration. Besides Bach is well known to be a prick, ask Henning Pauly! A better choice would have been Josh Todd of Buckcherry but as they are now doing well this won't happen.

Kravitz then...? Time will tell.

James Michael would be another outstanding choice.
