Well, let's remember that this is one half of the Toxic Twins talking here. "Camaraderie" probably involves a fair amount of punching in his world.
Lol. Exactly want I was thinking. Goes to show just how toxic those twins are if Eddie and Dave showed camaraderie in comparison. Smh

Eddie Van Halen is sharing a backstage photo taken with Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler and Joe Perry at the Stone Music Festival in Sydney, Australia on Saturday.
The bands were sharing the top of the bill on the first day of the weekend event, which also included performances by Jimmy Barnes, Buckcherry, Kings Of Chaos and others.
"We loved Van Halen in the beginning but they got so big so fast that we offset each other on tour and we never saw them,” said Tyler at a festival press conference earlier in the week. “We've been following them ever since and I'm always honoured to see them backstage. Every time I look into their eyes I see a camaraderie that knocks me over so I love those guys."

Camaraderie? From the band who's break up was almost as bad as gnr's was? Really? Lol

A recent interview with Matt, he made it very clear that he doesn't really have the energy to be in a band situation again, so I think VR is done.
Naw, they just need to give Steve a ring.

I heard that on Liquid Metal. I was... disappointed, to say the least. It actually kind of reminded me of Bon Jovi. http://www.metalsucks.net/2013/04/22/th … g-garbage/
Lmao, I guess that's why I don't hate it.

Sounds OK to me.

I think Myles was/is the best choice.
He's the only guy on that list who can sing absolutely anything from the ENTIRE of slash's back cataloguge (GNR, VR, Snakepit, Solo) - thus giving slash maximum setlist flexibility - yet he's also still fresh enough to make modern rock sounding records that go over with a classic rock edge that suit slash's tone.
Guys like Stockdale and Levine are great for an odd song or two but too samish for albums.
Shaddows is a powerhouse front man - but I can't see him singing the back catalogue - it's a bit removed from his style.
Cornell is too patchy - when he's in genius mode his songs are amazing, but sometimes he utterly underwhelms too.
I'm with you on Myles and Chris, I can't comment on the rest of those folks as I don't know enough about them.
But I dig Myles's range and I loved Apocalyptic Love. I know some folks don't like his voice, not a problem for me. And the bromance Slash has with him makes me like him more.
I love Chris. He was the man with Audioslave and I like allot of his stuff with Soundgarden, but your right, he can be underwhelming as well. His solo work for example, with the exception of a song or two, I could care less about. And I did not enjoy the last Soundgarden album.
But again, he was awesome in Audioslave. They put out 3 great, solid albums. So maybe the supergroup thing brings out the genius in him.

I'm with you on wanting to see more of Fergie's chops.
Yeah. She needs to drop the pop shit because of seeing footage of
playing with her there is a vibe that I was digging and lots of stage chemistry. She still has sex appeal too in my opinion. That needs to happen again at least for a few songs. Definitely could not see her pull off a full album with the guy; but a couple more songs would be an interesting listen.
She rocked at the rnrhof 25th anniversary show too, with U2 and Mick Jagger. She's got the pipes, the looks, the attitude. I'd dig her on a full album, but I like rock bands with female vocalists, like Flyleaf, Evenescence, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.
