Rock Star: INXS

I say either Percy Sledge or Curtis Mayfield.

 

Nobody has guessed it yet although one name is sort of close similar music sort of, although I don't think that will would help much.[}]

Brim this is for fun and I am not going to make it too easy. Like boomer says, calm down.

If nobody guesses answer will be at the very end of the INXS show when Marty wins

Here is a thought perhaps we all could meet for the last several INXS shows or even all the next ones somewhere for a drink or whatever. I will then reveal the name at the last show if no one guesses by then. There are several bars pubs around here with tv's so maybe one of them. I would invite you all over to my place but I would want to make sure there is no real looney's here first.

sort of, close, similar, sort of...yah, you're right...it doesn't help that much.

 

Wilson Pickett lives in The Regency

 

Hey brim, here's a site for you - http://www.ci.knoxville.tn.us/newcomers/things2do.asp

 

i only said they were from the same era, not the same talent ranking.

 

Excellent You win T8erman it is Wilson Pickett.

If anyone is interested we could still meet somewhere to watch the rest of INXS

Thanks for the suggestion, but I lived here for 23 years so I'm aware of all the things this fine city has to offer. I do, however, have a couple links you might enjoy:

Thanks brim, but I'm doing just great as a mom without any sort of survival guides and I already have a job. (in addition to being a mom)

 

I'm afraid I have only seen a couple of installments of the program. But I must say, it is a whole lot better than American Idol to me. This is a real contest, with real talent, and with a real band waiting at the end for a new singer.

Very cool.

 

Hate to ask the question but who is Wilson Pickett? No offense intended, maybe I'm just too darn young (yeah that's it!!)

 

Jen, here is a wikipedia link for a quick synopsis:

EEK,

After tonight my bottom 3 for this week are in this order:

Jordis - She murdered that song
Mig - His original was really really bad
Marty - I'm getting tired of the forced performances. SING Something...

 

I was impressed by Deanna. Her original song was great, her performance majorly rocked and the short skirt was breathtaking!

 

I agree deanna pulled it off and like you say I am still dreaming about her outfit. [}] "No dear (my wife in the other room) I am not on a forum talking and salivating over deanna and her outfit my wife does not know yet I am really drooling over burke brook so I better get off here before she finds out.[}] OK sweatheart I will shut up before you ban me from talking about the INXS show just like you have banned me from talking about the Iraq war and bush and your family and my family and HOA's. actually not much I can talk about anymore

Anyway It was not marty's best night but I still think he is going to win it and he is more hip and in tune with the music of today as they all said tonight and INXS needs that as they are becoming aging rockers. mig might pull it off and he is austrailian.

My guess for bottom 3 tomorrow Mig (JD?) Jordis and Jordis will be history.

I think Marty is in no way going to win. He's not even in INXS' genre of music. He thinks he's a hardcore guy..seriously, can you see him fronting INXS?

As for Jordis, she is still my favorite. They can't all have fantabulous performances and based on her previous, there's maybe been 1 other that wasn't 100%. Most of the other peeps on there don't have as good a track record.

Deanna did well but she had a co-writer (Ty who is still in my personal top 3) while Mig did it on his own. I actually enjoyed Mig's song, perhaps needs fine-tuning but they only had 12 hours!

I think Marty or the other blonde chick (Susie?) will go. She rocked last night but she's not that consistant. JD did well too but he just rubs me the wrong way.

 

Not a shock really who went home. The voting has seemed to be against the women even though I've enjoyed them the most. I think people do have a hard time seeing a woman fronting INXS. That's the only reason I think Suzie has been in the bottom 3 so many times. She's amazing.

I agree that JD rocks but rubs the wrong way. I've got a love-hate thing goin on with his performances. I just can't see him fronting the band.

I was sad to see Deanna go tonight. I have enjoyed her performances.

And speaking of Brooke Burke's outfit tonight... Geez lol

 

I didn't like that Ty was in the bottom 3. I thought Jordis would be there for sure.
Just curious....have any of ya'll voted??

 

Always. Vote early and vote often. Deanna's last 2 performances, the orginal one and the final INXS number had me changing my intial thoughts about a woman fronting the band. I was sorry to see her go. And I can't believe the band LIKED Marty's INXS performance. Not my cup of tea as he seems to scream and talk more than actually sing. I would not pay to see INXS fronted by Marty and his "modern" sound direction.....
