Like now you mention it - they could do Skid Row and GNR hits - that's a huge draw to most people - then they add in the VR tunes.
VR was always keen to establish itself as more modern than GNR - but I always thought if they just did a straight GNR cover show with someone like Baz or Myles they'd be giving modern GNR a run for it's money in the "which band is GNR" stakes.
Add Gibby and a vocalist so similar to Axl to VR, and GNR's authenticity problem gets worse. Which could be pretty cool for fans if a rivalry between the two would motivate them to put out more material. We could end up with two awesome bands.
Big obstacle, there are no vocalists like Axl.
I was referring to Baz in that post, he's an 80's vocalist who's work with Skid Row was very similar to Axl in GNR.

Haha. That is funny smoke. Slash, Duff, Gilby, Matt vs Axl, Izzy, Dizzy.... Which group of alums would put out better shit? For straight up rock, I say group 1.
Idk about that. Izzy has some serious hard rock chops, and I've read critics credit him as the best song writer of the original line up. I wouldn't be surprised if it was Izzy's influence that made that first VR album so awesome, he helped write a few of those tracks.

Heard both the other day and I didn't mind the "ballad". But then again, I bought "Bigger And Deffer" when I was a kid just for I Need Love so what do I know
Lol, I thought the ballad was ok too, but just ok. I'm just disappointed because I was hoping for something as good as "Beat It".

I don't know if it's just you, or I'd go so far as to say he's hinting, but I had the exact same thought. I'd love that so much, at least for an album.
Heh, yeah I'd like that too. It's probably just wishful thinking on my part.
