TeeVee and RockNRoll

Despite hating most reality shows and despising the premise of the "Rockstar Supernova", I am compelled to watch this disaster. I've only caught the last few episodes and I think my biggest enjoyment comes from mocking what I see on the TeeVee. I could care less about the people competing to front "Supernova" (I'd rather front the Bee Gees), but it is the "rock" stars who comprise "Supernova" that really get my goad. So all this new found interest on my part has resulted in posting a comment on a message board about the show. It's amazing how much people get into these shows. They publicly "root" for contestants and "debate" who had good/mediocre/bad performances like A&R guys from Capitol Records. Anyway, in my typical cynical/critical/comedic prose, here is what I posted along with some responses:

Anyone eliminated from this train wreck of a show should feel lucky. The so-called super band SUPERNOVA is nothing more than 3 retread losers picked up from the marginally talented rock-n-roll trash heap. Dave N. should take his estogen soaked banter and go host Celebrity Duets. This guy was in Jane's Addiction?

Maybe Dave has heard so many comparisons about him looking like Prince that he wants to take his androgeny up a notch...

luv ya, luv ya, luv ya. And what is up with Dave's cleavage. I guess Carmen said there can only be one woman in this marriage. Oh and Newsie. Are you trying to look pensive, or are you just confused? Perhaps its the fingerless gloves.

Post Script: Jane's Addiction was a hard rocking outfit. I saw them a few times and they delivered. Dave Navarro should be ashamed of himself. Ironically, he's probably making more money from producing this drivel than he made in his entire career with Jane's A (thanks John for this astute observation).
