I'm gonna miss them tats!

I said tats... but come to think of it, I'll probably miss those other things, too. I'm talking about Storm being booted from Rock Star SuperNova. I think over the past few weeks, she's held my attention by simply baring her mid section.

So, here it is a week into the college football season, and I should have put money down on my bottom three picks instead of Notre Dame last week (thanks ND--you're inability to kick a friggin' field goal blew my chance to win $450 on my parlay card. So much for the luck of the Irish). Yes, I would have had the bottom three right had I picked them last night: Dilanah, Storm, and gulp... Lukas.

I suppose, in the end, Storm was the obvious choice--but I do have to say Dilanah really has taken a plummet these past few weeks, somewhat comparable to Jordis last year (she got stuck with that one Aerosmith song and never recovered, losing votes every week which in turn lead to her losing confidence). Interestingly, both Jordis and Dilanah share that Grrrr-voice thing along with the hair do thing.

Glad to see Magni make it into the final show along with Tobey--these two have separated themselves from the pack over the last few weeks. Lukas as shown a bit more emotion which has lead to a better demonstration of vocal ability, but I just don't see it happening (though unfortunatley, I do--I think it's something of a forgone conclusion that he will be pegged as the lead singer). About the same point last year, Andew Farriss from INXS was criticizing JD for not showing up "prepared" for the original song episode. This time around, we get the same situation with Lukas. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out, but I'd be very surprised (but totally elated) if it weren't Lukas.

From the WHAT I REALLY WANT TO KNOW corner: what was up with Jason being overcome with Wish You Were Here? Obviously it holds some relevance to his own personal life, unless he was shedding a tear much like me in the thought of being a tatoo on Storm's body knowing she would be the next to go.

You just have to ask yourself why somtimes? Considering the background of the band and the type of music they are known for and the type they are obviously writing.....why would you do a Pink Floyd song???

Don't get me wrong I love Pink Floyd but why rely on "Wish You Were Here" to save yourself? I would think something with a little more tempo and crowd interaction would have been more appropriate. If you absolutely had to do a Pink Floyd tune maybe "One Slip" would have been a better choice.

Jason was obviously going through a little emotion due to that song. Perhaps it was knowing that Roger Waters and David Gilmour will never play together again or maybe it is because of Sid Barrett's passing earlier this year.

Or better yet....maybe it was "why did we get rid of Ryan"

Big question is will people buy tickets??? Check out their tour schedule...it sucks. They play 2 dates in Florida, then 2 days later they are in Virgina for a date then the next day they are in Buffalo.


stay tuned
