Has anyone been watching this show? I tell ya, I'm glad I'm not the guys from INXS, I don't know how they will decide who will win "the prize"....

Who's your favourite?

Who's your least?

Thoughts?
 
I like Ty great singer, great performer but don't see the fit with INXS, don't neccesarily like him but I think Ming will win.
 
I've watched a bunch of these audition shows and the only thing that strikes me is that the credibility factor from winning, let alone being on the show to begin with, is ZERO. This is especially true in rock. Winning the INXS show might be a career boost in the immediate short term, but in the long run it will do more damage than good. IMHO.

True and good points, Canadian Idol is a prime example, caught a bit last night, real toss up on which was more pathetic the horrible performances or the way the judges spew such bullshit in comments of the performances, was there not 4 judges who at least have some credibility in the Canadian music scene for this show?

Rockstar Inxs... I have always been a fan of Dave Navaro's gtr playing, but his impersonations of Randy (the black guy who sounds like a white guy doing a black guy impression)from American idol has to stop "Dude you just rocked that" makes me cringe

Don't tell me you are so closed minded that you are going discredit someone for being gay? :confused:

Oh please...don't be so pc. Homosexuality had nothing to do with my comment.

"Gay" as a pejorative
When used with a derisive attitude (e.g. "that hat is so gay"), the term "gay" is purely pejorative and can be deeply offensive. The derogatory implication is that the object (or person) in question is inferior, weak, effeminate, or stupid.

I think if they can get through JD's ego he should be the winner. But that is a big IF...

I'm going to have to agree with the board though and say Mig is the winner. 3 reasons.

1. He's Australian
2. He is head and shoulders the most mature singer left.
3. He seems like he is the guy who has given up the most to get to where he is today.
 
I would say Mig was the best last night but over the course of the shows Jordis has outperformed him.

The voters dislike of Jessica kind of mystifies me. IMO she is one of the better stage performers in the competition.

I'm pretty sure it won't happen but I would like Jordis or Suzie to win, there are plenty of guys in INXS already.

Ty was born for Broadway. He has pure raw talent but is not at all suited to a Rock band. If I was Ty's agent I would send him to audition for Broadway shows immediately after he is cut.

Ty comes from broadway he was in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat," "Grease," "Songs for a New World" and "The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber Concert" as well as the Vegas version of "The music of Queen"
 
I have to agree that Mig seems like the logical fit for the band. He's Australian, male (I can't seen INXS fronted by a woman), seems to have charisma.

Marty is a decent singer but I never felt he was the right fit. JD is a prick - I can't see them choosing him.

All of the ones who are left are pretty good singers and it's getting tougher to get rid of anyone.

I think Jessica is the hottest of the women singers.
 
It's a done deal...just give it to Mig right now (for all the reasons that others have given).

And yes, with the singular exception of Jessica (at least she has stopped gyrating like a stripper when she sings), the others are all rather good, albeit in different ways.
 
Inxs Rocks

OMG i love this show

Jordis is the bomb (she may not be the hottest ..even though i think shes hot in her own way .......but shes very unique with an egde and has much better voice in my opinion;)

I missed a couple shows though is there any reruns of them besides Tuesday night thanks
 
Alexis: you can see all the performances at http://rockstar.msn.com/

Jordis has an amazing voice but IMHO she's been losing ground the last few times. If someone would take her under their wing and teach her how to "perform" she'd be killer.

I see Ty Mig or JD fronting the band. As stated, I don't see a woman doing it (call me sexist but....). Was I the only one that found almost all the women (except Jordis) who sounded like they oversang the songs? IMHO they all sounded so much the same.

I actually think it would be smart for them to pick a women. If they pick a guy, they would always be compared to Micheal Hutchence. Thats just me.
 
Good point DOuble, but it seems like I'm not the only one who thought that way....3 women in the bottom 3.....that's tough.

I was so surpised that Ty was even (although initially) in the bottom 3..

THanks tboy

Ty is a top performer IMO he is great at mimicking other stars lyrics and notes -but does he have what it takes to be a frontman of TY being himself -his chance of being in a band with the other members showed me hes a jingle man/best singing actor in the play quite frankly that song he wrote stop go sounded like a freeze and justify song for his drama class -nonetheless hes very talanted in the performing arts.

Jordis when she sang that David Bowie song floored me "holy shit " a woman really pulled this off like it was hers .(She reminds me of that cool chick from 4 non blondes the lead singer who sings that song "hey whats going on?'(i wish i knew where she has gone too ?)
Her downfall in my eyes was when she teamed up with that MArty in the BAnd they formed --- Marty influenced her on his experince of being in bands and how they should do it --im glad cause it showed his song sucked too i think he wanted a duet with jordis rather then a band lol i think his jealousy showed with JD Bigtime

JD has what it takes but his ego is whats going to kill his carreer -his lyrics are spontaneously on the money -his song kicked ass ! -unless he can start humbling himself and come down to earth its a band not the JD show he might stand a great chance

As far as Mig goes hes got the rock star persona profile but i think he still needs his own edge (i dont think they want another michael but rather a new flavour to spice it up ).Maybe the next performance will be more intense to put him to the test .

As for the DEanna Jessica and Suzie i say they join a group called MINXS -somebody call an agent in Vegas ! ;)
