Re: VR Without Scott
With a new name, it'd be starting from scratch again, which I don't think is fair to the work that the guys put into the band and building up the name.
Sure VR aren't as well know as GN'R as a brand, but they do have a bit of a following.
I think it would just cause more confusion to start another band name, but it also might turn into a GN'R situation with revolving members if they do keep it.

Re: VR Without Scott
Just read the band name part in Slash's book - Slash came up with the name Revolver, then Scott added Black Velvet Revolver, then Slash suggested just Velvet Revolver, which they decided to stick with.
So I guess Slash came up with the final naming rights?

Re: VR Without Scott
The name is kinda cool and buzzsaw made a very good point about the band being more important than the singer. That was the case with Van Halen and although I prefer Roth-era VH they did pretty good with Sammy. Now Gary....geez, that was a bad idea!
