Re: On the search for a new frontman:
I don't see anyone outside of an english speaking country being picked. If I had to put money down on who they'll go with, Bach would be my top pick. While I like Sebastian, his stage antics are a lil bit corny though I think it would be a great fit with VR. But didn't Bach burn some bridges after they chose Weiland. I recall somewhere where he trashed VR. With him having Axl's dick so far in his mouth, it may not even be an option for him to join VR.

Although I don't believe a reunion will ever happen, if Bach did join VR, I think he would be the gate to a reunion actually happening a few years down the road.
Re: On the search for a new frontman:
I wasn't too sure where to post this article so I figured I would whack it in here since Bach mentions trying out for VR (the first time).
It's just a recent interview with him:

Someone mentioned that before.
I did 
I still think that Lenny Kravitz or Linda Perry would be the best well-known singer for this band. But I can see Slash trying out some of his candidates on his solo album, and then decide. 
Re: On the search for a new frontman:
some interesting Cornell news...if you are praying that he takes the vacant spot against all odds 
CHRIS CORNELL Postpones European Tour - Apr. 16, 2008
Former AUDIOSLAVE/SOUNDGARDEN vocalist Chris Cornell has postponed his previously announced European tour due to scheduling conflicts.
In a statement released earlier today, Cornell said, "Due to an extended recording schedule, I will be able to perform in front of my European fans a few months later than expected. With that said, I plan on touring extensively through Europe and the rest of the world through 2008-2009."
Cornell is working on his next solo album with producer Timbaland, and says "it's going fantastic."
Chris stated about the unlikely pairing, "This is different from anything I've ever done. I've come from an indie rock world, where, if you have a producer, it's somebody who's not a musician, not a songwriter. He's just someone who twists knobs and can kinda tell you if they think a song is too long or too short or needs to be more aggressive. Tim's a songwriter, so I was working with him in a collaboration, sort of as if we were in a band."
Re: On the search for a new frontman:
Well, it sounds like he's out, but OTOH his solo album sounds a little bit more interesting. Could be hit or miss though.
I think Kravitz would be an ok choice. A bit of a safe choice (brings a big name, credibility, fanbase etc) so it would be interesting. I just hope the songwriting is good. Kravitz had some good tunes, but I don't know if I'd want to hear a whole album of his stuff. It could work though.

Kravitz could be great for a single album but he is a one trick pony all be it a damn good one.
