Rockstar: Supernova Week 8 Performances

Rockstar : Supernova


They recapped Dilana's performance with Supernova last week. Lukas and Storm admitted their envy. No shit Lukas, like it wasn't seething out of you as she performed. Cut to the house for song selection...At song selection everyone wanted the "original" song. Patrice got the first one based on the logic that she's been in the bottom three a lot and has "earned it". The only thing Patrice "earned" was her continuous spot in the bottom three. Storm wanted the other original song, but gave it up to Ryan and took Cryin' by Aerosmith, the song no one wanted.

Dilana wanted Every Breath You Take and so did Toby, so he made her run around the pool naked like he had to last week to get his song. Nooot bad. Dilana's a hardbody. Bravo.

Cut to Storm, cryin' about having being stuck with Cryin'. Buck up bronco, you're about all I have left...well, you and Dilana.

Gilby brought his dog, "Chopper" this week. Cute, douchebag. Dave then addressed Storm about her giving in to the other rockers all the time. Storm said she wasn't afraid to take on any song. He then addressed Ryan and Patrice about taking the original songs. They both said they wanted to showcase a song they thought might be good for Supernova...

PatriceSo Patrice was ordered to kick things off with her original song. It was called Beautiful Thing, but it wasn't really so beautiful. More like a very contrived and boring thing. Please, please, please won't you send Patrice home tomorrow? The band may agree because they didn't seem to blown away during the performance. They then bullshitted her that they liked the song, but they're a bunch of liars and didn't want to trash her songwriting abilities in front of so many people. Newstead is high or still shouldn't be allowed to talk. It'd be cooler if he was high, but he's not, so he should shut up.

MangiMagni was next with Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit. Mangi gave Lukas the Sammy Sosa chest love during the performance. Lukas gave the love back. A budding romance in the rocker house? Dave complimented Mangi's angst in his performances. Tommy gave Mangi "break something" advice and Dave ordered the kids to do that in upcoming weeks. Look for excessive breaking of instruments in weeks to come, or maybe even on this week's show! Ghey.

Ryan StarRyan, as previously mentioned, had the other original song, so he followed with one of his called Back Of Your Car. He sounds like the Editors or one of the other 100 bands that sound like the Editors. Actually, he looked pretty comfortable singing one of his own songs. Oh! Just pitched his guitar across the stage! Didn't even have to wait one performance for the rockers to get cliche on yo' ass. Anyway, despite that he looked a little more natural and less constipated. Lots of "whoa ohs!". Dave was really impressed, thought he rocked out, asked what happened. Ryan said he got laid. Tommy also agreed with me that Ryan looked more comfortable. Oh, this is terrible, Ryan says that song was about "making love while the world is ending, some people are in church and some..." Wow! So cool Ryan, what an original idea.

Storm LargeStorm, also as mentioned earlier, was next with Aerosmith's Cryin'. She's a sexy beast this one. This whole era of Aerosmith is heartbreaking for me though. I mean, they were terrible during the whole Alicia Silverstone era in my opinion. I hate all the songs associated with the Silverstone era. Storm did a really great job on this song, but now that Zayra is out, I'm of course pulling for Storm now. Navarro thought this performance was awesome. Tommy loved it, but wants to see Storm with less clothes on. Gilby tried to class things back up a bit. He said he wants "memorable" performances and I think he was implying that this was a memorable one...not sure. Jason liked it of course. He likes pudding pops, fingerpainting and naps too. Actually, I like those things as well...so nevermind.

DilanaDilana's naked trip around the pool earned Every Breath You Take by The Police, but I thought she fell flat. Her eye makeup/big ol' pink eyelashes were terrible. Not flattering at all. Her outfit, black with pink and purple as usual to match her hair. She's consistant in all things I guess. The band loved it as usual. They lauded her performance...CUT TO LUKAS LOOKING JEALOUS AND PISSY! Nice! Ohhhh crap, Newsted just asked Dilana why she wanted this song so bad. Dilana says hasn't spoken to her mom in years and says this was her mom's favorite song. Dilana just hopes her mom got to hear it because it was for her. BOOOOOOOO!!!! Mushy mush mush. Why'd you have to ruin it Dilana?! Way to go Newsted.

Toby RandToby then created a "new arrangement" for Layla, originally by Derek & The Dominos. Eh. Not so new really, maybe in the beginning. Oh, weak, just pulled his shirt off. That will keep him out of the bottom three or put him right in it. He's got "EVS" written on his chest. That's perfect, because I would say "WHATEVS" to this performance. Oh, turns out, as Toby describes, that "EVS" is Austrailian for "WHATEVER". I thought maybe it was intitals, so I guess he agrees with me and that's all that needs to be said about this.

Lukas RossiGargamel finished the show...er, I mean Lukas finished the show. He sang All These Thing That I've Done by The Killers, an MOKB fav honestly. Love this song...BUT not the way Lukas gurgled it out. He sounded like he was out of breath the whole time. Terrrrrrible. Navarro and the band loved it. Retards. Gilby asked why he turns his back to the audience so much, Lukas said it's as much for the house band as it was for the fans and Supernova...uhhhh?

At the end of the show Toby, Storm and of course Patrice were in the bottom three.

I love the Killers, and I TOTALLY agree with you- I kept waiting for him to collapse and die during his performance. I loathe Lukas. Ugh. Seriously.

I thought the rest were all good, nothing particularly stand out, but- apart from Lukas BUTCHERING All These Things That I've Done... gasp, gasp, wheeze... It was a pretty good show. I have no clue why the fuck Patrice is still there. She needs to go next.

So here's the deal: I agree with you about Lukas. HORRIBLE performance. I was SO bummed the "judges" didn't rip him. But what bummed me out more was that the only half way decent performer was the Aussie dude. Doing a lame ass "re-ivention" of Layla. What a crap show. Why can't we have someone with a little more pizzaz?

I thought Dilana definitely shot herself in the foot this week. The whole interview thing on the mansion show where she was dishing dirt and naming names really hurt her image. Then she insisted on taking a song that was only going to do her harm. She fell flat on her face and definitely came across as average, bringing her back into the rest of the pack for the time being. I think Ryan could shape into this seasons JD, as he kinda had a bunch of middling performances before dropping a standout original song and getting stronger as the competition went on.

The bottom 3 kinda surprises me, but I guess we'll see. My picks for bottom 3 performances.

Dilana
Lukas
Patrice

I would like to have put Magni in there as his rendition of Smell Like Teen Spirit was rather average, but I know Patrice is ripe for an elimination this week.

Dodge, serious question: are they paying you to blog about this?? My guess is they must be. Just curious.

 
At 11:29 AM, Anonymous MJ spat...

Of course Dodge gets paid to blog about Supernova. I mean isn't it obvious he's that "huge". I mean the whole 5-10 comments on his Supernova post each week would definitely spark interest from CBS and lead them to give him payola.

CBS is obviously interested in giving money to a blog whom's patrons would never buy a Supernova album nor give the show serious cred.

You my friend, are a serious dumb ass or an ignorant douche. Sorry, my patience is small for such idiocy today.

 
At 11:44 AM, Blogger Dodge spat...

whoa! easy tiger.

serious (and honest) answer: no. if they were, i would tell you.

basically all you have to do is read one of my show reviews to know that there is NO WAY a network would approve what I am writing about the show and it's performers and especially Supernova the "band".

 
At 12:42 PM, Anonymous mikey spat...

I'm too lazy to read through your other supernova posts, but... who picks the pool of songs that they get to choose from? Whoever it is, they should be shot. I mean, you can't have a tryout for a rock singer, and give them songs like "Losing My Religion" or "Every Breath You Take" and expect a rock performance. I mean, can't they have an all AC/DC week or something? Or an all (old) Def Leppard week? Why do we have to hear all this pussy music? (not that I mind pussy music, but damn, if I'm looking to rock, I want ROCK)

And I gotta say... Gargamel? HAHAHAHAHAH. And here, I always just thought of Lukas as the love child of Adam Ant and Billy Idol.

 
At 12:45 PM, Anonymous mikey spat...

Oh, and as far as the bottom three is concerned, it really doesn't matter. We all know that either Patrice or Toby will be going home. And the one that doesn't go home today? They'll be going home next week.

I watch Rockstar every week...it's my dirty little secret...but your recap is becoming my favorite part of the "Rockstar" experience. Thank you for your continued cinical commentary.

PS...I hope Lukas and Dilana get into a catfight!

totally enjoy your critique... btw WHERE can i find these past performances (in particular i cant find dilana's every breath ANYWHERE)... hmmm?

thnx!!! (and i agree... it was 'ehhhh')

I can't believe you didn't trash Dilana for singing her name into Every Breath You Take. At that moment, she morphed into the Velveeta in a grilled cheese sandwich.
