So i was watching the idiot box last night and i was flicking channels as i normally do,and i found a program that has been causing a bit of a stir down here.
You see,someone has decided to do a musical of High School Musical - yes,I kid you not.First the movie - now the stage production.
So they have been starting a televised competition for the 2 lead roles - yes,I know the TV is that bad in this country.Anyway,they are now down to the final 6,who have to do dance and vocal performances for a panel of judges.
The songs that they sing are covers of some famous well known songs.
Now,I am sorry - but when you do that,the last thing you do is try and sing a 'classic' that meaning a song that is only sung properly by the original artist.Now one of the male finalists decided to do 'Dont wanna miss a thing' by Aerosmith - sorry dude.Your version sucked big time,and you just DO NOT try and sing a song like that.
Then a female finalist came on and 'tried' to do 'My heart will go on' by Celine Dion.Again,major no no.

Mind you,I was a regular viewer of the program Rock Star Supernova - won by Lukas Rossi - (but where are they now.mmmmmmmmmmmm?)
All the entrants in that competition were established singers in their own countries prior to entry - but the version that Storm Large did of Pink Floyd's 'Wish you were here'
well................ that didnt leave too much to the imagination

Can anyone tell me where i can get more info on the guys who entered Rockstar'??
Yes,i have tried the net,But hit a brick wall at all attempts.!

    Oh gosh - I am terrible for getting the names of music programmes all mixed up and wrapped around my neck LOL!  Was 'Rockstar' the same programme with Dave Navaro (married to Carmen Electra) from Nirvana on the panel and the guys from INXS were looking for a new lead singer to replace Michael Hutchins?  Or is it an American programme that I have never seen before ha ha!  Sorry - I'm not much help here am I?

    Last night I watched the idiot box too (hey I'm not the only one who uses that term) it was the melbourne philharmonic orchestra and choral
     
    FUCK IT WAS AWESOME!
     
    My point being I'd prefer to listen and watch classical and opera than stooopid idol like programs...

    Hi Pc - this is the american one.The 'judges were Tommy Lee,Jason Newstead,Gilbey Clarke.It was a brilliant show - but then faded away !
    Hello Lucy - you know that i would welcome a slap from you - my chops are ready and waiting...but if i remember,I am still waiting too take your temperature with my thermometer.
