Too bad we can't get together and comment on Rockstar: SuperPirates as the show plays out! :) Pads Anybody notice L.G. hasn't been hangin' out on the board lately? Hmm, must be crushed that Patrice got the axe! Poor soul. ]]> http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-876 Thu, 24 Aug 2006 23:07:14 +0000 http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-876 Maybe you need some guest hosts?? ]]> http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-875 Thu, 24 Aug 2006 22:16:49 +0000 http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-875 Hahaha! Patrice finally met her maker. How come it took so friggin' long? I can't believe Z, Jill, and Phil (I think that was his name) all ended up going home before her. Wow. She is so boring, she didn't even have a memorable "goodbye" speech. And that Superova song . . . oh man, you're right, Hidee Ho "Ho!" What, did they let a second grader write that chorus? I thought the rest of the song was better than the last turd they served up, but sheesh . . . these guys are gonna sell fewer tickets than the Dixie Chicks! They keep talking about how "dark" and how "heavy" their music is . . . well? let's hear that crap! We haven't so far. I think the rockers best start singing Culture Club songs if they want into Supernova! Now, I know you guys really like Magni, but he sorta freaks me out. I don't like looking at him at all. Maybe if he had hair. He reminds me a lot of The Biscuit, but I do note his talent. Especially last night. He really rocked and it was the first time I ever saw an all out "guitar jam" on Rockstar! They were trading guitar licks up there and that might really serve him well. Why? Because he can actually play a bit of lead guitar. Which it seems Gilby can't. Remember, Slash was playing all the leads in Guns and Roses. And both of the Supernova songs we've had the (gulp), priviledge to hear, neither have had even a cool or comlicated guitar break, much less a solo! Anyway, I thought that was really cool of Magni to do that. Especially, choosing a song that even a "Speak and Spell" could sing! Fire? Great great song (and I'm not that big of a Hendrix fan), but anybody or anything can sing Hendrix. He must have felt incredibly safe in choosing that song. And no wonder, everybody and their mother knew it was Patrice's last stand. Goodnight, ya'll! And I hope there will be another Ill Crate soon. L.G. is very busy dealing with some urgent matters. Thanks for hanging out. Always love to hear the Supernova gossip. I'll start a new topic area next week so we can vent there, even if we fail to get another episode on line.

And what was that new crap song? Hidee Ho Ho HO! Are they pirates now? ]]> http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-872 Wed, 23 Aug 2006 23:26:35 +0000 http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-872 Pads, I still love you know matter what! :) Do you think I have a bitter taste in my mouth for Lukas?? I just don't like him. I LOVE that you think he looks like a painted up and overdone Clint Howard....crap that cracks me UP! I thought he kind of looked and acted like and Orangutan...kind of mean eh? I'm usually not this evil...but I can't help myself.... So you like track lighting? You must also like Steel Magnolia's?? ]]> http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-871 Wed, 23 Aug 2006 21:18:59 +0000 http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-871 Nice to hear from you Mrs. Brightside!!! I agree with your assessment of Lukas in last night's performance. I don't hate him as much as Aren hates him, but the "angst" things is getting a bit old. I think it should have died with Curt Cobain. It is soooo, 1994! But you're right, it seems he was just trying to mimic Brandon's vocals and was coming up a bit feeble. Still, Lukas doesn't bore me. I find him somewhat compelling at times, but I hate those eyebrows. He reminds me a lot of a painted up and over-done Clint Howard . . . but I do like the way he struts about at times. However, I think he's becoming a bit of "one trick pony." I certainly like him a lot better than Patrice. I wish I could have hung out with Aren last night so I would have had somebody to vomit with! Damn, that was some pretty bad crap. Fortunately, she'll be gone by the end of the evening. If not, then it is confirmed, one of the producers of the show has been swinging on her monkey bars. Although, I can't imagine anybody really wanting to do that. Hmm, unless she's gay. Never thought of that. Hahaha, speaking of gay, Ms. Aren! Don't think I'm not aware of the stigma associated with my passion for "da zin!" Yeah, even though I'm totally assured of my heteroness and masculinity, it really bothers me. L.G. isn't that comfortable with it either! Now that I think about it, I really like purples and pinks too. And a few show tunes. And track lighting. And scented candles. And, . . . oh, crap . . . David, (gulp), Hasselhoff. Moving on. Well, let's hope for some good performances tonight. That means, let's hope that Supernova doesn't have time to perform and that Ryan gets the encore! I hated Dilana's eyelashes, but I hated seeing her running around naked even more. Am I the only one, or did any of you think she looked sort of like boy running around the pool? I think they just digitally attached her head to Toby's body from last weeks. Not sure though. Later, kiddos!

As I've said, she's prob really good on 6th street or as a club performer, but just not for a super band. Magni- what can I say...I just love him. He's got great stage presence, he connects with the audience, wonderful voice. My second fave. I have to admit, I'm quite sick of all the nirvana covers. He did a really good job I though, especially for having the flu. Ryan- I've been saying it all along, since about week3 that this guy really has something to offer and finally ppl are jumping on the bandwagon. He was absolutely wonderful. Oh and he did my favorite of his original songs. He's too good for this band though. He's my numero uno!! LOVE RYAN STAR. Storm- I really like her and I really wanted to like her performance, but I just didn't. It was bad. I have to say she picked it up a bit at the end, but it just wasn't a solid performance. Still really like her though. Toby-I think he's really modern. I think he could do very well, but not for this band. He's too hip or something. He's a good performer and a really good singer, but I usually forget about his performances. Infact, I was about to submit my comment then realized I had forgotten to even comment on him. That tells me something! Dilana-zzzzzz....I fell aseep! Boring, I'm sick of her voice. It was so cheesey how she was singing her name at the end of the song. I'm no longer a fan. Pads and L.G. I want to trade her in for Zayra!! Lukas-Man, he sounded really good when he started. I was thinking it was going to be really good, but then he did that stupid constipated voice, same moves as usual, back towards the audience. I just didn't like it. My predictions for B3 Toby Storm Magni and possibly Patrice ]]> http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-869 Wed, 23 Aug 2006 18:49:46 +0000 http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-869 Well Here I am...Mrs. Brightside to comment on an AWFUL performance of one of my favorite Killers songs. First off, I think in my last post, I commented on how much I can't stand Lukas. He's way too depressing and I didn't understand why he kept turning his back to the fans either. It sounded like he was trying to do a mimic of Brandon Flowers voice and stage movements but it just sounded and looked terrible. Brandon has a very unique voice and I've never heard anyone come close to singing the way he does. So there! Also, on She Ap's behalf, Ryan did have the best performance. Good song, good voice and good stage performance. I think Magni was a little upset when he saw Ryan throw his guitar. Thought thta was a little cheesy since they were JUST talking about how they wanted to see SOMEONE break something and then right after that Ryan did. And Dilana, what was up with those lashes! Her voice sounded like it was a little off key in certain parts of the song. And Storm, totally hot but can't stand her! Her singings okay but I don't like her facial expressions or the way she seems so attention-seeking. I guess most rockstars are though! Those are my thoughts! ]]> http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-868 Wed, 23 Aug 2006 18:34:41 +0000 http://illcrate.com/post/ill-crate-episode-47#comment-868 Pad- I just got the funniest email that is called what you drink personality test. If you drink White Zin... White Zinfandel: He's gay Do you have something you need to tell us. Ryan was AWESOME. He was SO much more comfortable on stage singing his own stuff...and it was good. He totally smoked everyone. Lukas really needs to stop singing songs I love. He ruined "Creep" for me...that is my ALL TIME favorite song and now I don't know.... SuperNova is going to suck, so I hope Lukas gets it so he can go down in flames with SuperNova....I'm bitter! I love Layla too...love Eric Clapton...I thought Toby did alright. Patrice...VOMIT! She reminds me of Alanis Morrisette....we only need one of those. I'm not THAT musical but what is so difficult about singing Cryin' by Aerosmith...is it really that hard of a song? I guess if she tried to do the "kahkahkahkahkha" like Steven Tyler. Magni was boring. Who else sang....it was all kind of boring...the only one that made me say WOW DAMN was Ryan. ]]>
