PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Rock Star 2006" |
Not seen this posted yet, and did a search but did not find anything.. This topic of discussion is around what you think could happen next year for a 2006 Rock Star. I mean, this is a Mark Brunnet reality T.V show that has turned into a great breakout hit (I think anyway). It certainly makes the Idol shows look weak and dry by comparison. Anyway, what I find most interesting about this year is that they've created a show with a single purpose that cannot be recreated next year (unless we're in the twilight zone and JD (assuming he wins) self-destructs to the point of getting arrested and we find ourselves back next year :0). So, assuming INXS finds their perfect singer and ride off into the sunset, what are CBS left to do in the popular world of network sequels? I see two options: 1). Strip INXS from the title, and just have a competition for the next "Rock Star". If Dave's interested, he could still host, and maybe even use his connections to pull together some musicians interested in forming "the next big thing". This would be difficult to pull off, as the weekly eliminations wouldn't have "original" songs to play. Maybe the public could be more in control of the elimination? Or, maybe instead of the "host band" originals, each rocker has to perform their own original during elimination week and the band still chooses from the bottom three. 2). Find another semi-successful Rock band that's in need of a lead singer. I say semi-successful, because I think it would be in poor taste for a band like Queen to seek out another singer in this forum. You just don't have Queen without Freddie. Correct me if you think I'm wrong. Anyway, it would be cool to see if any other bands are in this position that you guys think would work. Or is the whole idea of finding another band cheesy? I was thinking mabye Journey, but I have their most recent live DVD, featuring a new lead singer (and they even picked up a well known studio drummer for the gig). So, the only original members were guitarist & bassist. Anyway, just a thought. So, what do you all think?

By the way, based on the info from that other post, I'm voting for Van Halen as well. Seems like a great fit.

I don't think Alex or Michael have much say in the band anyway. It seems that what Eddie says goes....

Wow, great idea. I'm a big Alice in Chains fan and it shames me to forget about that tragedy. Realizing they're a bit of a grungier band - but, then again, look at who the most popular INXS Rock Star hopeful is (Marty)..You will not hear me underrate or overlook the haunting vocal harmonizing between those two (though I do like the Cantrell solo projects). I think he is a powerhouse guitar player, but I also really liked the bassist and drummer from Alice in Chains. Love to see them back together. Thanks.

From: Ted Casablanca's E-Online column at www.eonline.com/Gossip/AwfulOh, there's a bit more on the Desperate front, not to mention a little help from the Donald and Mark Burnett's Apprentice franchise. Girlfriends, listen up. The only gab that shook me up more than discovering TV folk have been in talks with Madonna for her own Apprentice show is the news from the Wisteria Lane's Icons Dept. Mark Burnett and Madonna? Sound like Rock Star? Noooooooooo. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of Madge, but this show is called Rock Star, not Pop Tart!

I think that they should also keep this "Rock Star" going. And try and get new and old bands going again. So yes i agree with you all the way. And yes if they do this show again I hope Dave comes back, he was awesome. "MARTY ROCKED"

I got it from another source that you are right. Mine comes straight from the office of MB. They all heard that rumor but it is very hush hush still around there and won't confirm.
