Puddin, speaking of auditions. I went to two auditions and went over very well. I've been watching the show and me and all the people I know think that the contestants are not very good. The Black guy is pretty good but he is not right for INXS just because of his sound - not his color! We also think that my demo smokes all these guys so much it's disgusting. Go to nelsonstarr.com and if you don't agree, I'll send you a bottle of booze!
puddin:
OMG !! I checked it out and you are awesome BillLee |#' I'm not lying =]/ ( do i still get the bottle for being honest ? 8-)' )

So puddin, are you affiliated with the show or what? You must be! I'll buy you a CASE of Krug Champagne if you get me to be the one dude who is thrown into the mix unfairly at the last minute to screw up everyone else - you know how they do that on so many of the reality shows (like average Joe where, all of a sudden, these hunks get brought into the mix and the Joes are totally in the dark that it is going to happen). Look, the Rockstar show is already kinda played and predictable at this point The format is is very repetitive. Let's throw me into the mix for some added drama. I will kill these talentless fools so quick they'll be crying to mommy. They can't even sing in tune! Look you heard the demo - NO autopitch correction was used - and I am decent looking (see photos at sight). It's not too late to make this show a hit!
If you don't work for the show, I apologize! Just let as many of your buddies know that my INXS demo is out there and that it does smoke those beefy out-of-tune hunks on the show!
