I didn't win me anything - answer your question bout you Lil? Sorry babe! :D

I thought the same thing Lil.. I was upset to hear an inference towards race.. :( I get tired of things ending up like that.. gender, race, sexual preference.. how about - you just aren't right for our band and leave it at that? Dunno...

I also agree about J.D. I think he will be gone soon.. I have a feeling that the guys are seeing through his kiss ass stuff - he isn't genuine to me at all. I haven't heard about any contractual obligations - I would think if bands didn't want them (not sure why they wouldn't) that who is left will be able to strike out on their own in some way.

I thought I heard on one of the shows that the "payoff" for the winner includes them laying down the tracks on the new album and touring with the band for 1 year. I could be wrong though.

It was time for Ty to go tonight ... and as others have said .... I was very disappointed with his comments about "we all know why he's been in the bottom 3" ... wah, wah, wah! I think the INXS guys were right that none of the 3 from tonight did a particularly great presentation ... I think if Ty had done so and the other 2 hadn't, he still would have been there ... I think they have been making there choices as they should, based first on their overall performance for that evening and then all things being relatively equal, who is the one that fits their band the least ...

I also think that from this point on ... who ends up in the bottom 3 each week won't have that much to do with their performance that week ... ALL of them are excellent performers and unless someone has a really OFF night, their performances are all likely to be excellent.


having said all that .... my wish for the final FINAL top 3 ... Mig, Jordis and JD or Mig, Suzie and JD .... I'm not a fan of Marty at all ... even with his "softer" sound of this past week .... he just spends too much time screaming instead of singing .... and then there's that (previously mentioned by me) psychotic thing! LOL!!! :)

Which is of course why I adore him :p :D

I agree that, globally even, blacks, people of African descent, are under-respresented in the world of rock. Rock being the key work. I did not find Ty to be a true ROCK singer and I consider INXS on the POP fringe anyway. If Ty's claim is a lack of support from the typical rock fan base, then he can't blame his color, because good performers of all races have been accepted in Rock, when they have chosen to enter that arena (Lenny Kravitz for one). If his bitch was that he wished ROCK had a larger black fan base, I see his point. But I think it is inaccurate to say that the lack of a black rock fan base is due to ROCK's unacceptance of black performers. It was a cop out to me.

I was wondering if you guys would be as disappointed in Ty's remarks as I was. It's basically come down to the fact that people have pretty much chosen who they want to win the whole shebang (for the most part) and are voting as such instead of on performance.

Two people that I was watching the show with last night both commented about Jordis having a lack of self-esteem. I was to busy thinking of different ways I could remove her clothing. :D

I couldn't believe JD whining about Suzie saying that he was in the studio a long time. Dude didn't prepare and he WAS in there a long time. WTF is this 'You had no right to say that' crap? Then he gave a very lackluster performance and I think if Ty hadn't messed up on the words slightly in the song it could very well have been JD going home.

Marty did a bit of his 'scary conductor' thing in his encore and he does get a little psychotic, but he has really changed my thinking with his performances as I didn't care for him much at all when I first saw him, what, 5 weeks ago. Now I'm leaning toward him winning it. He's very expressive and I dig that.

I agree Ty's remarks were uncalled for but probably the result of being extremely disappointed. The dude has talent, he'll find a band I have no doubt. I can almost see any of the remaining vocalists winning it. I'm sure it's all up to the band and what they're looking for. Marty's talented too but from my perspective it's a narrower range than Suzie, Mig or Jordis. I tend to lean toward Jordis simply because she's young and can develop into whatever she puts her mind to. Suzie's powerful and driven and could easily do the same thing. I can't wait to see who gets it and I'm enjoying the shaow as it goes along.. I'm betting JD's asskissing has gotten old and he'll be the next one with a bus ticket home. If Aqua's going to claim Jordis, I'll take Suzie or if Brooke's not too busy she's a peach too.

OMG the VH1 show was wild. Aqua must have been in heaven :D

Damn I don't have VH1... I hate I missed it

I don't have VH1 either... but I did find this...

Star Search 4

It appears this isn't her first such competition.

/me goes off to look for bootleg VH1 Jordis footage...

One word~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~> Marty








no, two words ~~~~~~~~~~~scary conductor :hot:

I must confess ... Marty did an excellent job on his own song ... actually I think all of the original songs were excellent.

Damn, damn, damn! Jordis cut and JD still there... is there no justice in this world???? :bang:

Was it just me or did my Marty get totally snubbed tonight?

He did seem to fade into the background. I'm not sure that's bad though. He's holding his own now it seems.

His song last night blew me away.

thanks for the update BigBear - it doesn't air here for another 45 minutes ... so you took the stress out of it for me. Jordis is a great singer, but last night she was even less confident then the previous couple of shows, you could see it in her eyes ... she'll be doing great things, just needs some time to gain a bit of experience in life (at least that's my opinion) :)

I wasn't thinking about time zones, hope I didn't spoil it for anybody. I'm sure you're right Hon, Jordis will be around... I feel sure of that.

She said flat out that she was wondering if she was right for the band anymore. That was the final straw in her downward self esteem spiral.

:( :( :(

She's gone. *sniff*

But I figured it was gonna happen. Her voice just doesn't suit the band and I think maybe she realized this and was bowing out. When they asked if she was right for the band she said, "I hope so?". Guess I'll be stuck googling her pics for awhile to get my Jordis fix.

I also think Marty was somewhat snubbed last night... he got a very minor part in the song 'Us' and he really should have had the encore, although I hate to admit that JD had the next best original song, IMO. But Marty didn't get much attention at all during the show.

Suzie gave me chills singing Never Tear Us apart and again I must admit that JD did a really good job on Mystify.

Did Ya happen to notice Mig's face when they announced Jordis's demise? I hate to say it but his confidence is waning too.

I missed that part. :( I noticed Mig's face when JD was the last person called out for the bottom 3. I think he really felt he should have been there.

Btw, they had Jordis in a live chat on MSN today... I told her she was beautiful. They had it set up so you could only see the questions/comments she was responding too, so I was probably one of several to do so, but I'm sure she's a better person knowing I feel that way. :p

I'm sure you made her day Aqua. Did you happen to drop our URL???????

Oh, I was sooooooo close to doing so. I really thought about it and decided not to... cause as much as I love you all, I'm greedy and want her for myself! :p

Why is it I'm not at all surprised? LMAO

I think I may be sick from school the day Marty's on live chat.

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

Aquaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Marty has to sing CREEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

:eek:

NO WAY!

I predict you will have a, uhm, misty meadow by the time he's done with that song.

Wanna come watch it with me Tuesday? :D

YES!!!!! Bet he does it almost as well as you do!

/me blushes profusely

OK..this is going to be a tough decision.. lol

Anyone going to http://www.rockstar.msn.com/ to vote? Pretty neat site - you can view the videos of the performances each week too...

Aqua can get his Jordis fix.. ;)

I just voted..

I voted too. Not that many times though. :p

Reflections on performances...
Suzie was really good, but her first song didn't suit her too well.

JD was probably the best I've ever seen him. His song Pretty Vegas is quite good and I loved what he did with the money bag during his second song.

Marty just plain out-creeped me. Dammit. :p (Do not read that as creeped me out!) Loved hearing him do Trees acoustic and I had goosebumps during Creep. I also loved how he stood nearly stock still during that song yet still managed mesmerize and command attention.

Mig is great but I think he arranged Paint it Black to sound like it was being performed in a musical. He needed to downplay his theatrical side and instead he threw it up on a billboard with spotlights. Overlooking that aspect he was awesome.

All four had great performances but I think Marty was the man to beat last night, followed ever so closely by (I hate to admit it) JD... or as Mig says, JuhDuh. LOL

I concur with your assessment and would like to add that I need to have wild freaky monkey sex with Marty immediately.

Woohoo! Sounds like a plan to me! :D

:rofl:

Maybe you're right Aqua...bit I'm putting Suzie over JD... just can't give that ass kissin' schmuck credit to do me good. LOL

Yikes.. I am on the edge of my seat... they are all good, but - I am being taken over by the "scary conductor".. :lust:

http://www.martycasey.org/

He just is so passionate and well I'm very pleased with how things will be going down next week.

Since Deanna left, J.D. has been my fave. He is sooooo good!!!! I'm so glad he is in the final!!! :D

I think JD is the best fit.....Mig is a no go for me and sad to say it, I don't see a woman singing with INXS, so Susie is a no go.

I am pretty sure it will come down to Marty and JD.....both in butt kissing and the competition.

But JD's voice and look is the best fit in my opinion.

PS Pixie - haven't seen you before, like your icon and saw some of yours pics....nice ;-)
