Rockstar Zayra

I have been following this program and quite often I am left scratching my head. Maybe I don't have the same tastes and these guys in the band....well, you do have to remember that not one member has had a commercially successful recording since their hayday. Whether it was with Janes Addiction, Metallica, Gun's n Roses...nothing of commercial value (applauded by the masses). Tommy Lee did come out with an ok cd last year (Tommy Land) but since it was self produced and distributed there are no official numbers available.

Of course they have no control over who is in the final three for them to send home. That job belongs to us. Clearly though they could have made much better calls. Last night they sent home a singer only because she is young. A younger age doesn't always translate into incompatability with a group but then again this is just my opinion and it wasn't shared by the group.

These guys are the ones who go ga ga over the outfits worn week after week, show after show by the latina Zayra. If you don't believe me watch closely to the cut away of the band when she starts to perform or walk on stage. They had three opportunities to boot her but they hadn't. Last night Zayra didn't even make the bottom three.

Here are my thoughts as to why.

Since the group had three opportunities, in which the future cd buying public voted her into the bottom three, to send her a packing and didn't it gave a few people food for thought.

Just Maybe

Maybe she IS good enough. There had to be a change of heart en mass since her performance was undoubtadely worse then than those who were in the bottom three. My guess is that there is a groundswell of support developing for a latina to go on tour to front the band Supernova. I bet the phone systems od TeleMex and other national carriers to our south were nearing capacity during the voting.

My guess is that we will not see Saida in the bottom three again.

This just may be the best thing since The Folksmen, The Ruttles and even may more popular than SPINAL TAP.
