I almost wrote this review two weeks ago after I saw Velvet Revolver at the Electric Factory in Philly, but I realized that would be totally wrong.  After all, even though I heard most of the tracks on the album, they're different live, and well... honestly that was one of the best shows I've ever been to in my life, if not the best.  If you get a chance to see this band play live (and good luck, they sold out in philly in under a minute... they are playing small venues for this tour), go for it.  But I knew any review I did would be tainted by how blown away I was by their covers of STP and GNR (and the encore-ending finale Nirvana Cover of Negative Creep... wow).  So I waited for the CD.
