Any one else see the TV thingie tonight? about the Band INXS having 15 wannabe singers audtion to be the new INXS singer and for it to be some TV program over the summer
wtf!
I think the show is going to be huge...
Let's face it INXS died a long time before Michael did... They haven't achieved success since 1994.
The show will showcase songs of the band and bring back new life to a dead catalog.
I don't think the tour really represents the winner... It will be more of a one year tour and then the winner will break off on his own.
I would love to see Rockstar-Queen, because I think the earlier queen songs go un-noticed and could bring Freddie as well as the rest of the band back into the spot-light.
I was lucky enough to see Queen twice live, that wasn't enough. I want the band to live on...

And then some. I was a fan of INXS, last couple great songs they did were ''Suicide Blonde'', ''Elegantly Wasted'', and especially ''Disappear''.
Shame and stupid the way he died, but he was very talented and this is a laughable travesty to his memory and just a way for the remaining band members to cash in and ressurect their name.
the Queen connection of course
is the fact that two cast members of WWRY are in teh INXS competition
the lone australian
and the las vegas guy
having seen one of them live-- i would watch just to see how they do
**of course working nights that makes it very difficult**

This includes the lone Australian, a man by the name of Mig.
Also, since Zeni is such a stickler for the conventional rules of grammar and capitalization, I shall do my best to write in proper English. It is, after all, the write thing to do (ah, a clever pun)!
I was looking through the info on him (Mig) posted on the CBS website and it said that Brian was doing some work with his band (Mignition).
I wonder what type of work this is?
I think it's pathetic, all these reality shows are as well...we have the same crap here in Spain, I just don't understand what people see in it, sad...sad...sad.....
It was a sad way to go, and I must say, was completely unexpected. I still think he had an amazing voice! My favourite songs are those as well, also like "Heaven Sent", "All Around", "Taste It" and "Searching"

I know it will be played 3-4 nights a week
3-4 nights a week...oveeeerkiiill..
This will get as annoying as Big Brother, which I probably will end up watching due to the fact there is nothing else on..:-p
Not so annoying...
Monday Night 9:30 - 10:00 pm
(mansion drama and song selection process)
Tuesday Night 10:00 - 11:00 pm
(Performances)voting begins ...
Wednesday Night 9:30 - 10:00 pm
(Results and vote off.)
I think you will find that the show is a tribute to all of Rock and Roll.
In an age where hip/hop and country are dominating the charts, this get's rock and roll (good songs) broadcast in primetime....
They are not bringing in amatures, they are bringing in talented people who audition for the roll. The fans don't pick the winner, they pick the bottom 3 and INXS themselves decide which of the 3 are eliminated.
It is an audition that is televised not
Rock American Idol.
The only thing I like about that show is the ever so talented, HOT, excellent guitar playing one and only Dave Navarro is the host.
I could listen to him play all day. What a talent. (Not hard on the eyese either.. ;)
Somebody to love tonight
If you watch last nights ep, you can see the lyrics for the songs posted on the wall, I saw Heart Shaped Box (by Nirvana, I believe), as well as Somebody To Love. Though, it could just be a shot of another time, but for sure we now know that STL and HSB will be played during this competition. I can't wait.
That red hair chick was pretty fucking good, singing do you want somebody to love, Marty as well...well it's only 20 min into the show and it seems OK...Missed it last night due to Hell's kichen going for 2 hours.
I didnt get to see Jessica play "I want you to want me"
Wonder if it is on the net somewhere. I really love that song.
Any ways, I voted for the chick that sang "Call me"
Tonight they were showing INXS live...Fucking guess what? they should INXS at Wembley...when they opend for Queen! and Yes I know it was that, becuase I have seen that performance before, same Queen audiance and they were passing it on as thier own...
oh and goodbye Wil, you lost, lol
