I’m still loving Rock Star: Supernova, and it seems I’m not alone judging on Zonk talk. My family have always been American Idol fans and have either ignored this show or don’t seem to be avid followers at all. Luckily for me my country-loving wife has been enjoying it so, coupled with the PVR, catching it three times a week hasn’t been hard. Sure, these folks aren’t all pure, authentic “great” singers, but if given the choice between listening to Zayra or anyone on Canadian Idol I wouldn’t be watching CTV…
Anyways, who’s left that absolutely can’t win? Zayra, for obvious reasons. Patrice, who is a great performer in her own right, but doesn’t want this at all. Ryan is probably the most talented musician of them all, but the worst fit of everyone left.
Who could win, but won’t? Toby, too much pretty boy no matter how hard he parties. Lukas, whose voice simply isn’t good enough to front even this band. Magni, who won’t leave his family and existing career, something both he and the band know.
That leaves Storm and Dilana, and if I’m right, an all-girl finale for a hard rock band. Dilana doesn’t fit the band as well as Storm, although she’s quite talented and entertaining. She’s somewhat one-dimensional, which wouldn’t bode well for an entire album or concert worth of listening. Storm has an existing career and band that have made her a name where she’s from, and it might be hard to leave that. However, this isn’t a band in it for the long-haul; Tommy Lee remains with the on/off touring edition of Motley Crue and Jason Newsted is still a member of Voivod. That means this one-album, one-tour supergroup only needs a rental, and that rental is…
… Storm Large.
