(FMGQ) Steven Tyler possibly leaving Aerosmith. Quick, someone search YouTube for a soundalike to front the band, since that's worked so well for Journey and Boston
Good news: Steven Tyler might be leaving Aerosmith, and thus ending one of the longest running vortexes of suck in the history of music. Bad news: Steven Tyler might be leaving Aerosmith to make a solo album, thus adding to the greater vortex of suck that is contemporary rock music.

Except for Hagar replacing DLR I can't think of a good example of where this has actually worked. Aerosmith got lucky once coming back, there's no chance it will happen again.

Does this count for singers that have died? Because I think Brian Johnson has done a damn fine job of filling the void left by Bon Scott for AC/DC. He may not be the same as Bon, but he's got his own way of kicking ass.
Actually, it has worked pretty well for both Journey and Styx. The bands get to keep playing the 70s and 80s hits to folks who are too drunk to tell the difference. So everyone's happy (except for Dennis and Steve, who want back in).

No one can replace Michael. They should've just hung it up...

Owen may have been a replacement, but a soundalike? Not even close.

When Phil replaced Peter, yes.
When what's-his-nuts replaced Phil, not so much.
