I found your comments really intersting...in that I had a very similiar reaction to Z. She really started to grow on me. I hate her with a passion every week, and then about 2 weeks ago her quirkiness started to grow on me and although I'll be the first to admit that she is not right for the band, I wished that Patrice had gone last night instead of Z...as Patrice is just so damn boring. YEs, she did a decent job of celebrity skin, but I was really starting to like Z's quirkiness and attitude.

I rolled my eyes when Dilana got the first shot. It was okay...but was really, really stoked for our hottie boy Ryan to get the anchor. Damn he's fine! I was kind of freaked out when Magni chose Creep...and i was disappointed that two of the elimination songs were Lukas's songs! WTF? Anyway, I like Magni and there was no way he should "belong there".

It is so obvious that Patrice and Toby are the next two to go...

Enjoy your new career Z!! (and yes, my stomach will likely too be in knots for the rest of the show as I have soft spots for all the remaining rawkers (except for Patrice)

That Supernova song was bloody awful. And except for several "C'mons" I have no idea what the words were. I couldn't understand what Dilana was singing. And I just didn't like it at all. If this is what their band will be like. They will not be getting one penny from me for CDs or concerts.

I'm actually glad they picked Dilana first. Gives us weeks to forget about this. Let her be the guinea pig while they figure out what they are doing. I think who they pick in the next few weeks to sing will be more telling.

>That Supernova song was bloody awful.

I agree. I would so much rather hear the House Band. Even when the individual band members play with one of the Rockers on a song, I almost always think the House Band member would have been much better. Specifically Gilby. I haven't heard him do anything on guitar that I thought, "that sounded great". Don't think it's going to happen.

After hearing that song, I hope Dilana DOES win. I don't really care for her anymore and I was underwhelmed with the song AND her performance, so good luck you crazy kids. And as Glow noted, they really, I mean REEEEAAAALLLLYYYYY need a lead guitarist. Dave, hop up there man!

That song sounded like something a garage band threw together......a not so good garage band. If Supernova's collective talent matched their egos, they would be awesome, but alas, such is not the case.

Jimi was great but Jimmy wrote the Page

Too bad we couldn't switch bands with the VH1 super group, of course you would have to drop Sebastion. The fit he would throw would be quite entertaining though, hmmmmm.

I agree with everything you said here. I'm hoping she will be more forgettable to us AND them as others have the chance to raise the bar.

Holy carp that was AWESOME! He did very well vocally (waaay better than Lukas & even better than Marty last year) on this very difficult song. He knew his limits and how to adjust his vocals accordingly.

And his stage performance? Nothing short of riveting. The last part where he was sitting down was effing awesome.

I've always been indifferent about Magni, but wow did he uber-impress me last night.

Only saw magni's performance. I was kinda shocked he was in the bottom three because I thiught he was the 2nd best on Tuesday. Glad he survived but I knew he would. In my opinion Sotm should've been in the bottom three....not saying she should've gone home either but a performance that bad should've been there...just goes to show she has a high fan base....kinda reminds me of Suzi last season who did not do anything for me either.

As for Zayra, everyone will regret cutting her. I am not saying because she should front the band, but out of all the performers she is the ONLY ONE that gave performances each week where you never new what you were going to get. She had the ability to change things up so much. Every single person left has begun to sound the same each week. Thisw happened last season...with the exception of JD. Remember how each week Marty would continue to do 'grunge' type songs week after week. We knew what we had last season by this point and the only thing that kept it interesting is what order did INXS want to cut everyone. Brace yourself of boring performances coming up. Zayra will be missed. Notice how Zayra has started to build a little more respect each week....it was her ability to creatively change songs and the element of surprise we all loved. That love grew because we were beginning to get bored with the others.

I really hope that's the case. Dave had the most priceless look on his face when she was singing. She's really powerful. I would go to her concerts and pay big to see her. I think she's a sweetheart. She was very gracious upon leaving (as they all are)...but she never compromized her style or values throughout the competition.

I want to call it a "mistake" to cut her loose before Patrice but it's not my call or band.....but she kept bringing on new stuff while Patrice stagnated. They know neither was going to make it to the finals....so it would have been more entertaining to watch Zayra for a week or so more than Patrice. But they also see the details of the viewers votes which we don't and who knows what their issues with her are beyond what we see.

I just hope we see more of her somewhere

everyone will regret cutting her

No, not everyone. My entire household shouted in joy when she got the boot. Bout damn time. An ok performance this past week in no way made up for the horrific performances in prior weeks. So long Z, you won't be missed.

A Tribe Original!

I have to admit...I actually shouted out loud as well! I was so ready to see her go. Patrice drives me crazy but I haven't ever liked Zayra!

Well, both people in my household were disappointed to the extreme.

We had given up hope of Zayra winning, but consistently enjoyed her performances more than pretty much any of the others.

So, she will be missed. Unfortunately, after boring Patrice goes, relatively entertaining Toby, Storm and Ryan will probably be next, leaving (in my opinion only of course)a final three of the consistent yet dull Magni, consistent but one-dimensional Dilana and consistently popular but uninteresting Lukas (yeah, I know, everyone loves him).

Knew Z was going, just hoped it would be at least after Patrice.

YES

I thought it was a mistake for Magni to choose a song that Lukas did so well. I watched it alone the first time and felt he did it very well but that his performance lacked the intensity of Lukas' performance. I watched it a second time with my wife she was very impressed with Magni so what do I know. I also realized that Magni's falsetto was probably a little better than Lukas'. Magni is the nicest guy, but I still question his stage presence.

As for cutting Zayra, I will miss her and wish they had chosen Patrice. Zayra had no potential for SN, but I was becoming a fan of her performances, personality and creativity. I doubt Patrice is a real contender either, but that is for an entirely different reason.
