this went way different than I thought.

The thread title said 'losing lead singer', so I assumed the singer dies.
That's how i read it in the beginning too, but then OP mentioned Blink-182, so i figured it was all fair game

Avril Lavigne died in 2003 and was replaced with a body double named Melissa Vandella, twenty years later and the music industry is still trying to pretend that Avril's replacement is just some sort of wild fan conspiracy theory.

Fleetwood Mac

The Green/Spencer/Kirwan era is so different than the C. McVie/Buckingham/Nicks era.

The rhythm section is the only part that made the transition.
Independence H-D

Grateful Dead.

Might have been easier to start a thread of great bands that still have their original lead singer.

Skid Row had several frontmen after Sebastian Bach left.

Didn't someone replace Vince Neil for a few years in the early '90s for Motley Crue?

I partied with John Corabi one night in Hollywood circa 2007.
Apparently he had the best weed ever.

That shortens this list quite a bit.

AIC, STP, AC/DC, Sublime, etc


Quiet Riot still makes this list. The only reason I know this is because i saw a billboard just today in New Mexico advertising an upcoming concert they are doing with Ratt at a local casino.

The Eagles had Vince Gill in the Glen Frey spot on their last tour.

Although I do not know if they recorded any new music with him.
