Seriously? OMG! WTF?

I am so glad he got it! He so deserved it and he will have a huge career! 

So, it is Lukas, Toby, Dilana and Magni left on the show. Only two more tapings! Who will it be? Wow. Now that The Panic Channel is going out with Supernova, I all of a sudden have an invested interest. HAHAHA. NOW they tell me! Well, I don’t have a say either way, so I guess it won’t hurt for me to give my thoughts, but I’ll wait on that. At this point I’d rather watch the show on Sunday (Tuesday) and see what the final four bring us before I make my final assessment. They all have strengths and weaknesses. Toby has a great voice that is solid, but he doesn’t have the edge factor I would like to see. Lukas has a lot of edge, but vocally, I am not sure I would love hearing him for a whole two hour show. Magni is also way solid as a singer, but I worry about his command of the stage in terms of staying compelling for a whole set. Dilana has the voice and the edge down, but I worry that she lets the random temporary stuff effect her too much. Sure, she went through a tough time, but all entertainers do. She seems a little on ’tilt’ these days. If she is going to let what people say effect her so deeply, I will definitely recommend that she doesn’t start her own blog like this one! HAHAHAHA.

Wow, I can’t believe he doesn’t love Lukas. Maybe he is not the shoe in we all think. 

to my new extended family….So. Storm is gone. It is between me and her for the encore. Pump it out if you can. The rumors that multiple votes don’t count are wrong. I personally spoke to the show and got confirmation they count. So far the support has been insane but we all know Storm has a huge fan base so let’s not take any chances. Thank you so much. My new extended family. I love you all and your support means everything to me.

Exciting things happening. I recorded a live album today with the house band and it will probably come out next week. Moving quick for all of you so I can get on the road.

Love you all.

Ryan. (MSN Spaces)

I can’t wait to hear the song and I hope he gets the encore next week! So vote! 

I think it is BS she is out over Dilana, but I predicted she would be out tonight. . .so I am not that upset.  

Tuesday is going to be a hell of a show. Everyone brought something special to their performances. You all know I have my favorites, but to be honest, at this point I don’t have a clue as to who is going to win this thing. Luckily, we will see yet another contestant up there with Supernova on Wednesday. We know what Dilana, Lukas and Toby feel like up there with those guys, but I’d like to see Storm and Magni up there too. It only seems like the fair way to gauge at this level. Everybody has proven that they can do cover songs really well. Song writing? Well, that is another issue entirely. There are five originals on the Tuesday show in addition to five covers. Basically, they do a two song set each. Although it is not my job to critique their song writing skills, I would have to say that there are some that are good, and some that are just kind of… "Eh." I’ll tell you this. No matter how good or bad a song is, The House Band makes them sound amazing, sonically. I mean, those guys are so damn good that they can take anything and make it sound rad. You guys be the judges of the originals. I was unimpressed with one in particular, impressed with others and actually blown away by one. All I can say without giving too much away is that as much as I liked Ryan, Supernova may have known what they were doing all along on the last elimination show. So, you have a 50/50 shot and figuring out what I’m getting at. It’s all good, though, Ryan has a huge following and like Zayra, hasn’t wasted any time getting going on his solo career. No doubt that The Dark Horse will ride again.

If you haven’t watched the online reality show I suggest you do. There is a lot of heat regarding Dilana’s "screw you to the fans" comment. I can’t figure out what she could have possibly meant. Part of me wants to think that she was referring to the haters online and that it accidentally came out wrong, but then again, that girl really need to learn to think before she opens her mouth. She does go on to say that she needs her fans later in the episode, so it is more than a little confusing in terms of where the hell she is coming from. Onstage I think she is amazing, but off stage, she has the potential to really piss off a lot of people. It seemed that she was redeeming herself from a couple of weeks ago, but I really think that she may have signed her own Supernova Death Certificate with this one. I am curious to see what happens because I have always wondered how much of an impact the online episodes have on the voting. Control-Alt-Delete.

Also, there is a new Supernova track in the reality show online. It is definitely my favorite of all the material we have heard from them. I am hoping they do that one on Wednesday. The guitar riff is pretty sick.

Someone needs to put Dilana in her place, but they won’t and she will make it to the finals.

What’s up everybody? Only two weeks of Rockstar: Supernova left, then it’s back to business as usual. More The Panic Channel shows, Spread Radio Live shows, maybe a week off up north. Total recovery time. I am looking forward to the break but I will miss seeing everybody I work with twice a week for sure. Let me get one thing straight here. I do not HATE anybody. A lot of talk about "Dave hates Magni". That is absurd. I honestly do not know the man. I think he is an awesome singer and performer, as I do all of the remaining contestants. In fact, to quote my last post, I wrote, "Either way it rolls, I can almost see a version of Supernova with any of them. At this point the talent pool is so deep, that they (Supernova) kind of can’t lose." I have rarely said anything negative to him about his performances. I just happen to have my personal favorites, just like everybody else. Today I have another performance taping down at CBS to attend. I think there will be some surprises with song choices. We are at that stage where we can have two songs from each performer. Big show ahead! The Vegas trip was just insane. Great party at Pure followed by a lot of late rolling around from here to there. I didn’t sleep at all while I was there so I grabbed myself about 12 hours last night. Even thought I do not drink or do drugs, I feel totally hung over somehow. Vegas will do that to you! Actually, the best part of my trip, the most enlightening part, was the flight home. I was seated next to an elderly woman who asked me about my tattoos. She then said, "I have one, but not by choice." She proceeded to show me a number tattooed on her left forearm. It turned out she is a Holocaust survivor. She had been in Auschwitz when she was a little girl. We spent the flight talking about her experiences and it was profoundly life changing for me. I am well studied in the history of the Holocaust and W.W.II, as I have read quite a bit of literature and watched a lot of documentaries on the subjects, however, all of the information out there never even scratches the surface. An amazing lesson in humility, gratitude, patience, perspective, love and tolerance. I had never met a survivor before that.If you haven’t done so already, visit The Museum of Tolerance.

I just thought this was a great post to follow a man who does not even believe the holocaust ever happened. I am sincerely going to miss Dave Navarro’s post when Rock Star Supernova is over.

Its me RYAN, I am FREE! but not done

Tommy Lee Tests Contestants Partying Skills…. Rocker Tommy Lee wanted to test the partying endurance of the contestants on his reality competition Rock Star: Supernova so he flew them to Las Vegas, Nevada for a wild weekend. The Motley Crue rocker claims that anyone who joins his new band has to know how to party and he wanted to see his future bandmates’ abilities first-hand. The reality series follows the search for a vocalist to join the new band Supernova formed by Lee along with former Metallica bassist Jason Newsted and one-time Guns N’ Roses guitarist Gilbey Clarke. Lee says about the trip, "Good times. It was insane. We don’t hang a whole lot, but we have had some good times at the (Playboy) Mansion and in Vegas. "If you’re going to spend a tour with these people and do a record with whoever we choose, you kind of want to see how they operate. You find out real quick who’s amateur hour and who’s professional. "One of our contestants, Dilana, was carried out like a potato sack and put in a wheelchair and taken to her room (after drinking too much).

Maybe Dilana will win. Either way without Ryan the show sucks as bad as Dilana’s singing and Lukas’ looks

"Rock Star: Supernova" hasn’t even finished it’s run yet but CBS is already gearing up for next year’s season.A source tells TMZ, despite having less than rock star ratings, CBS has renewed the show for a third season.And while no band has been attached to the show in the vain of INXS and Supernova yet, we have learned that next year the contestants will consist entirely of women. Somewhere Tommy Lee is smiling.While this doesn’t bid well for all the wannabe Bonos out there, all you Courtney Loves-in-waiting should start readying your ripped fishnets now.TMZ contacted a rep for CBS but have yet to hear back.

To be honest if it is all girls, I am not going to watch.

Here is a new thread so I can keep up with you guys! I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH MSN!!! Don’t know what to tell ya! I’ll know more when I get to work tomorrow about the voting fiasco. In the meantime, rant and rave all you want here… I haven’t seen the show back yet but it sounds as though it is much worse sounding on TV than it was in the studio. I’ll confirm or deny in the morning.

I wonder if this will change who leaves tomorrow?
