On CBS on various days at various times or something. (check your local listings). (It was on last night, the night before, and tonight)
ANYway... so, when first heard about this show, I thought to myself, how freakin' gay. I like INXS. INXS is not some backstreet boys shit or something around for a couple years and then gone... they're a longstanding band, and one that I happened to like.
So, as you may or may not know, their lead singer killed himself a few years ago. And now, they need a new one. Thus spawns a reality show. Of course I though... what the fuck??? How gay!
HOWEVER, I actually watched the show last night. Wow. I was more than impressed. Sure, a couple of them could go, but for the most part, the contestants are all pretty damn decent. Especially considering the circumstances. That's saying a lot for me... I don't typically like the 'new rock sound'. This wasn't, really... it was gritty, and fun, and entertaining. Also, the INXS band members are actually there to give their two cents... which is cool.
So, yeah I mean... this is good shit, and you should watch it... who know's, you might be impressed too.
Oh, one last thing... it's hosted by Brooke Burke (sp?) and Dave Navarro. Navarro creeps me out. He's way too fuckin' pretty to be a boy... or something... it's weird.
