Well I suppose your right to some respects but I still find that he sings with a high pitched tenor sounding voice most of the time. I love Petty by the way.

I think the realty of GnR is that during a certain period they were more than the sum of their parts. I have no interest in solo output from any of them, but together during a particular period of their lives, it worked. I think there are quite a few bands out there like that. Jane's Addiction comes to mind.

I totally agree, I can't think of one Velvet Revolver or solo song that stands out for me. It looks like the punk influence went a long way for GNR, for Velvet Revolver has that horrible 90's commercial rock sound behind it, & Axl seems to think he's Elton John.
