Oh my! I didn't see that coming.
He could be a good fit. He's a great writer, guitarist and versatile singer (although highly self stylized). Certainly a great addition to any band - as if he needed to join a band. It does seem like a pretty gutsy move for both him and the band. I'm real interested in hearing the results.

Well, I like Lenny a lot. And I like VR. But Lenny has always had his own thing going in terms of style that does not seem to plug straight in to VR in my opinion. Who knows, could be cool to see what they come up with!

I personally won't believe that until I hear it from somewhere more reliable than The Sun.

I'm with you on that, interesting talking point though - I personaly can't see it happening either.

Not that he's in the running, but I would love to see Chris Cornell in as a frontman for VR. Dude can tear it up....

Apparently it ain't so, according to Lenny himself.

Well then is there still hope for Karen Carpenter to get the gig?

Yeah, except she sings every song like this: "Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are . . . BRAINS!"

Perfect if it's done in a cookie monster voice.
