Come on people, is there a more obvious choice than Justin Hawkins from The Darkness? Seriously, the Darkness broke up (didn’t they?) and he’s got the pipes to cover Axl’s high notes, and rock out on his own.

@Superawesomerad: Yup. Maybe he can get a band together with Steven Adler.
Is Adler still alive?

@D Day: You know you've failed at life when fucking Slash calls you a junkie.

The guy who replaced the guy who was Axl's friend in Blind Melon?

What about Ralph from Atomic Punks/Metal School - they could do covers of themselves

RE: Rod Jackson - good voice, but Slash pretty much called him out as a junkie he couldn't depend on in his autobiography.

Enough crapola! It should be Rod jackson, the singer from Slash’s Snakepit
who sang on “Ain’t Life Grand” (totally underrated fuckin’ awesome disc)…
either that or it’ll be me…

I think Bo Bice would be very nice, along with the sanitized, thinly mixed guitars of Velvet Revolver.

I forgot about Tesla dude's unintentionally hysterical performance at that Station benefit. Sounded just like Eric Cartman.

I mean, the dude's voice was always kind of grating, but that was embarrassing.

As for VR, Scott Stapp is the obvious choice.

@Mick Kraut: You cant pull Ian Astbury away from Billy Duffy...like Mick without Keef...

I see someone's forgotten Riders on the Storm -- wisely.

Is Gary Cherone not an option?

I wouldnt go old school...get a newer guy, someone with the chops to cover some old GNR but strong enough to stand on his own...
