Rock Star: Supernova questions commitment

The guys of Supernova largely made their decision tonight based on commitment. All three of the bottom three performed fairly well, and well enough to keep them in the competition. But one had to go, and ultimately Supernova just questioned the commitment of the leaving party. But before we get to that, you have to wade through the recap (or scroll I suppose).

After the various yadda yaddas, intros and recaps, we were on to the first round of interviews. Tommy Lee told Storm Large she did an excellent stage dive and wondered if it was her first time. Storm said it wasn't but she could make it look like it was. Next up were Dave Navarro and Patrice Pike, who discussed Dave's comments to her about changing every week. Dave said it was meant for everyone, as they need to change so they aren't boring. Soccer mom said she hears him and has seen him with his various bands and what she meant last night was that he is consistent (yeah, way to backpedal there Patty). Dave add they are just trying to help. He then moves on to Zayra Alvarez, inquiring about her outfit. She said she got it out of his wardrobe. Gilby Clarke tells Zayra that she's entertaing but wonders when the pop stops and the rock starts. Zayra says that rock and roll is anything you want it to be and if she's different that is good. Gilby tells her they want something harder, she says she's do that next week. Jason Newsted wonders what they should do with Phil Ritchie. Phil tells them to let him hand out longer, adding that they get frustrated because 2/3 of the songs aren't really heavy or intense. Dave points out that Dana and Dilana had stripped back songs that still managed an intense presentation.

On to the clips of the whinging after the show. Jill Gioia whines that Gilby just isn't used to women, that he's used to Axl. She says it's different with women onstage. Dana Andrews tells the rockers she is learning from them even when they aren't speaking. She thought her performance was a breakthrough and showed her darker side. Broodster, Ryan Star says she has a lot of catching up to do, as she's not where she should be at 22. Dilana says she can become a rock chick, but wonders if it will happen in the two months of the show. Dana, still focusing on clothes, whines about her wardrobe as it's been all rocker chick now. If anything shows why she isn't ready to be a rock chick, it's her constant complaints that she manages to look the part. Anyhow, Dana says that she is out of student mode and now it's time to do what she thinks.

Back to another interview, the first between Gilby and Jill. Gilby starts off nicely, pointing out that their opinions come from years of experience. They wonder when she gets all defensive and crap what they will have to deal with if she joins their band (in other words, stop the nagging 'cause they get that at home enough already). Pamela-lite says she's Italian and hot tempered and why can't women show their sexuality like men do? Gilby says that he's played guitar for Heart, with 2 women onstage. Ann Wilson has never had to stoop so low as to hump Gilby to get her emotions out. He add that her moves were predictable. Jill, who no doubt regretted her next words as they left her brainless head, said everything in rock and roll has been done before. Everyone was upset by that, Dave was buzzing her, Gilby was upset. Jill tried to backtrack and say she'll do something new and exciting.

Then we were on to Dave and Dana, who wondered if her comments back at the house meant she wasn't going to listen to the other rockers or to Supernova. Dana said that she still has to learn, but she's starting to learn more from them when they keep their mouth shut. Dave points out that Dilana gave her excellenct advice the other day. Dana agreed saying constructive criticism is cool, but when they're all coming at her it's hard to take.

The encore went to Storm Large, leading to my reaction of "ewwwww." Her performance of Anything Anything by Dramarama was about the same as yesterday, but without the flying skirt. It was cool enough, but really, was that one the best? Maybe out of the ones that hadn't performed an encore yet, I suppose.

Finally we're on to the whole purpose of the night. Jill, Josh Logan, and Zayra were in the bottom three when the show closed yesterday. They were quickly joined by Phil and Soccer Mom. First into the bottom three was Soccer Mom. Tommy wondered if Mom was surprised to be in the bottom three. She said you never know, but would be surprised if she left today. She performed "My Iron Lung" by Radiohead, calling it a great modern rock song that was beautiful and in your face. She was trying to look and sound a bit more like Dilana. She also acted a bit more rocker chick, going into the audience. The performance was so-so, as I got the feeling she didn't really know what she was doing up there. She just seemed to stumble around. She's not right for the band, but it would be enough to keep her around.

Next into the bottom was Zayra. Gilby told her this may be her last time singing for them. She said she would sing "Not an Addict" by K's Choice, as she's addicted to music. Honestly I liked it, but I'm certain not too many other people did. I like her, though I think Nicole and I are alone on the Zayra-is-cool front. She's not right for the band, but she's fun and a good entertainer.

Josh and Jill were quickly told they were safe, leaving Phil as the last person into the bottom three. Jason told him to make him a believer again, and give them a performance they would watch over and over again. Phil performed an unknown song, Smoking Umbrellas by Failure. The song definitely had the intensity that the band wanted. I wasn't too sure about the song, but overall it was a fairly good performance.

Gilby said there were three killer performance tonight. Patrice's voice kept her in the show, he said, but she brought the same performance every time. Tonight however was awesome and they want to see more of that. Patty was naturally safe. As for Zayra, she's original but they have a hard time imagining her in the band. As for Phil that was his best yet, but don't know if he wants it. Phil says he wants to be the best at everything he does and he wants to win this. They wonder if he wants to win or be in the band. Tommy told Phil that they just question his commitment, making him the next to go. Phil thanks all for the chance. Gilby says that they respect that he stayed the same, but needed to believe he wanted to be in the band.

Extra points for me tonight, I did not need a replay to catch everything! I wonder if it's because Skunky and Crocodile Hunter were silent? I didn't have to sit there and go "huh?" and miss half the stuff.

	great recap, great backstory! I wish we could get all of the back "stuff" on the web, at least. Seems they edit out all the good stuff! (sprout: hope you keep up with letting us in on all that good stuff!) I just had to comment on bobbleheads, but it has nothing to do with music, just a stream of conciousness sort of thing - you know, a word or phrase that makes one stare off into space, thinking another thing, which brings one to another thing, and so forth. Anyways, I have a bobblehead doll. Of George W. Bush. It was a gift to me. By someone who knows me so well, but pretends that he loves the man, just to get my ire. When I gave him a dirty look when he presented this to me, he said " no, no, wait! you are gonna love this! now, when W. makes you nuts, you can hit the top of his head, watch it bob around, and scream at it "WHAT THE F*CK WHERE YOU THINKING!!?!" It works. I sometimes actually can feel better seeing his little head bobbing around, with that stupid smile on his stupid face, knowing there isn't a brain inside either the bobble head or the real head. Ok, sorry, way off topic. Pardon me. It won't happen again. A thousand pardons. (I also have a bobble head doll of Lewis Black, my favorite comedian, but that is also off topic, so I shall shut up now!)

You and I must be soul mates, I swear Okay, Dusty too perhaps, 'cuz Dusty and I are NUTS about Lewis Black. Got the DVDs and a book. One of our personal favorites is the "end of the world" bit, with the two Starbucks. Oh, and I want a George W. Bobblehead too!

	First of all...Zayra should have been voted off at the start. She is NOT a good performer, She CAN'T sing...Hell, she can't even speak good English!!! Why is she still there??????!!!!! I practically had to grit my teeth through her last performance...she did a terrible injustice to that song and her LAST song..."Call Me" - She kept losing her breath and coming in on the words late...what the heck was that all about??!! Just because you wore a risque outfit doesn't make you a rockstar babe! I hear alot of you say she's cool...but I firmly disagree.... She is not cool, she sucks!!!! I am outraged that Phil was voted off before she was...what a slap in the face - I mean didn't you see the shock on everyone's face after Tommy said it?? Obviously she is expected to go home! She is controversial...to a fault...she doesn't take advice from the group unless her *is on the line...I agree with Dave, she should go solo immediatley, but the only place she would make it big would be Telemundo! Zayra YOU SUCK!

Don't mind me, I'm just a guest.

	hugs tha manure outta her sista curlio! he RULES, doesn't he! Have you seen him live? OMG! I was roaring! he is SO GOOD! my favorite dvd is still Lewis Black on Broadway, but his latest dvd, the red, white tour, is the tour I saw him on, and he is just so darned good! he isn't one of these slapstick guys, he is really intelligent humor, I think that's why I love him so much. oh, god, the way he delivers that line about GWBush "what drugs must one be on to be sooo deeeluushional?" rolls around on the ground I must have watched that Broadway dvd 25 times now, and I still get tears in my eyes from laffing so hard... oh, um, *looks back at the topic GO DILANA!!!

	"My Iron Lung" by Patrice Pike was an amazing performance... where are you coming from? She blew the roof off ! !!! How she keeps landing in the bottom "3" is very, very surprising. Hmm, something fishy going on.... you figure it out?

	I just have to say that I've had the chance to see Patrice Pike perform several times with her old band, Little Sister (later called Sister Seven). They used to tour the US and we went to see them every chance that we had. My band even opened up for them once and I was thrilled. I had been a fan for a few years and felt pretty fortunate. After they were finished, she came over to me to tell me how much she enjoyed our set. She didnt have to do that. Frankly female singers usually dont acknowledge other female singers. Catty bullmanure. Patrice is completely down to earth and just an all around cool person. She is amazing live and so beyond being on this show. Nothing about here is forced or fake, she is who she is. I agree with you, she isnt right for Supernova. But it's all about exposure now isnt it.

Don't mind me, I'm just a guest.

	I have to say Lukas shows class...regardless if Supernova praises him or puts him down...he carries himself in the same manner. Dhalana on the other hand is catty, competative and can not be trusted. I think it would be a huge mistake to pick her for the band...she will want to dominate everything and god forbid something does not go her way...watch out...I do believe she can sing but a female with that attitude will only cause problems in the long run....
