My complaint, particularly about this last show, was the songs they were given to sing. I mean, "Runaway Train" and Incubus' "Drive"? Those are POP songs in my book. This season should be more hard-core than last season, as Supernova (I hate that name - ick!) is, in my book, so much more heavy than INXS. These 3 guys are from heavy metal bands, not rock bands. I mean, Metallica was downright THRASH in their early days. On a side note, I love Jason Newsted! IMO, Metallica took a huge dive after he left. He is the main reason I am watching "Rock Star" this season.

It drove me nuts when Brooke kept saying that Supernova is going to get to pick from "the top rocker singers in the entire world" - huh? Yeah, like Zayra? Where do they FIND these people!!!??

There are only a few people this year that I could see front this band. Dilana could easily, although I wish she would tone it down just a bit. I love her gravelly voice and stage presence. Maybe Storm or Jill. I think if Dana gets a makeover and lets loose a little more, she might have a chance. She needs to do something to her hair (plain brunette ringlets don't scream "ROCK STAR") and she needs a wardrobe change (wear some low-slung gauchos and a chain here and there!).

I really like Toby, too, and hope he remains for a lonnng time. I just question whether he's right for this particular band, is all.

My dark horse favorite is Magni. He was so terrible that first show, I about crawled into a corner! But he is the one contestant I can see who has the most potential to grow and learn, and get better and better each week. Someone like Lukas has already topped out - what you see right now is as good as he'll ever get.

Thanks, guys, for letting me ramble...any thoughts?
