So I admit I’m once again addicted to ‘Rock Star’, the CBS show searching for a lead singer for a band. Regardless of my hatred for Metallica and G’n’R I’m still enjoying the search for Supernova’s singer, which is saying something. The one highly entertaining thing I’m finding is that there’s a wealth of information about everyone involved last year – these truly are semi-established unsigned singers.
First and foremost, the house band rules and I would buy their album in a second. Sadly, it seems they’re more a mish-mash of truly great session performers and not a legit band at all – yet. There are notes they’ll open for Supernova on the big winter tour, and I hope they keep the name “House Band”. The guitarist, who is excellent, was the guitarist for Pink and Christina Aguilera of all things, and can be found on MySpace below, and the bassist is quite an accomplished artist.
Now the little known facts:

1. I have a crush on Storm Large. Don’t tell my wife, it’s a secret.
   
2. Storm Large has a book featuring nudie shots of her. I haven’t bought it. (NSFW)
   
3. Storm’s off-CBS band contains a member of Everclear.
   
4. Dilana does a killer “Hit Me Baby” cover, found on her MySpace.
   
5. Jenny Galt has contributed two songs to ‘Falcon Beach’. Heh.
   
6. Jill Gioia has already performed with INXS, and on Letterman.
   
7. Lukas’ profile proves CBS can’t spell I Mother Earth or Prozzak.
   
8. Ryan Star is probably the dark horse here, but he’s not right for this band.
   
9. Toby Rand opened for Nickelback. Sucker.
   
10. Who cast Zayra on this show? Fire that person.
