The band is signed to Scott Weiland's indy label and I'll again restate the joyful feelings I get when I think about VR stealing Scott Weiland's golden boy.</p> Not to sound like a know-it-all Los Angeles music biz type (if the shoe fits wear it), but all of my sources told me that the rumors about Chester being the new singer were false-which he just verified- and that the rumors about Greg Wayne (singer of SOMETHING TO BURN) being seriously considered for the position are true.

-1 – doesn’t seem to have quite the breath control (I’m seeing
“Paradise City”, not “Sweet Child”). I thought he was letting the audience sing along during the chorus, but he actually can’t make the transitions from line to the hook.

+100 – He’s okay to stand back in the shadows and let Slash do a center stage, in the spotlight solo.

No way. Scott sucks, but wee adenoidal Chester is the crown prince of AutoTune, which didn't even exist back when STP recorded their one good album.</p> A better singer than Weiland? No way.
