Rockstar Supernova
You know, I was really enjoying TV-free existence for a while there. May sweeps ended, the season finales were over and my TV was off most of the time. But then Rockstar Supernova started tonight.I wasn't even going to be home when the show premiered tonight, but then plans changed and I was home, after all. And what kind of person can avoid a show in which a bunch of potential rockers audition to become part of a band including Tommy Lee (of Motley Crue), Gilby Clarke (of Guns N Roses) and, last but certainly not least, Jason Newsted (of Metallica fame)? Not this kind of person, that's for sure. It doesn't hurt that they've already narrowed it down to 15 contestants who actually know music. Sure, American Idol is fun for the horrendously bad performances and the smack-downs by Simon Cowell, but hours of fairly decent rock each week, including some musical legends and the irresistable Dave Navarro? I don't see how I can say no.
And thus begins my descent into doom. The show is on again tomorrow night, and I'm already thinking, "Hmm, yep, nothing is preventing me from watching it."
