My wife is a big INXS fan. I'm pretty indifferent. Don't love 'em, don't hate 'em. This of course meant we had to watch the reality show.

I've listened to Pretty Vegas a number of times now. It's catchy I guess.... But how long do you think it will be before they kick the kid out of the bad for being just plain annoying?

if the members of the former-INXS band would subject themselves to a reality show, then they've got no class... so he stays.

PS: I don't know how annoying he is.

Like you, not a huge fan, in fact, I left a concert after the 4th song... only went to see the opening act, PIL.

Isn't there some requirement on that reality show that the winner has to kill themselves after winning the contest? :confused: If there isn't, there should be.:dead:

I watched the show in it's entirety and I like JD. I hope he lasts, his voice is pretty good.

I liked them in the late 80's. But when you turn to reality tv to choose your lead singer, that's just wrong.

What's so wrong with it? There is so much melodrama in most struggling bands. Are you down with INXS just because they cashed in and televised it? I don't let TV (especially reality TV ) move me emotionally, and besides the way they chose him isn't to far off from what could really happen, during me years in Hollywood all saw bands doing interviews and tryouts where all kinds of things where tried to standout and be selected, and most times it was for a band that had no future anyway.

I have no doubt they will have a long industrious career playing every venue from county fairs to small town casino's.
