All Hail the Troll- Lukas wins Rockstar

Supernova did what I expected them to so and named a midget Canadian as their lead singer. What a slap in the face to all the girls. If this reality concept is going to keep people interested they will have to stop ignoring the untold talents of the females that apply and give one of them a go. Chicks can rock and Dilana is amazing, it is unfortunate that fans were probably put off by her naive comments to the press about her fellow contestants.

Last night both her and Magni outperformed the others. Magni's rendition of the Hendrix classic 'Fire' was my favourite moment, he really looked the part with a Les Paul slung around his neck completely monstering the track. Magni's biggest fault was having a wife and child, very un-rockstar apparently. If only he could have hooked up with a porn-star while in L.A. and craashed an expensive car coked to the gills!

As for Toby, back to the Melbourne bar-band bro, nough said!

In the INXS show I thought Sweet Suzie was the most talented performer and Dilana was by far and away the best thing to happen to the Supernova show. In fact, if it wasn 't for Tommy Lee's bias and support of Lukas I'm sure Gilby and Jason would have preferred Dilana. Its great to think that both Gilby and Dave Navarro will have some input into her solo album. I doubt Supernova will come to much and the victory by a relatively unknown Punk Band to the rights for the name suggest troubled times ahead. I have a lot of time for Gilby Clark and he went up in my estimation last night based purely on his choice of guitar, a burgundy Firebird!!

Dilana was little more than a Tina Turner sounding angry midget!
Come on Human Riff, can you imagine listening to a whole album of her gravelly sounding voice combined with that drumming. I think she is great in small doses but an LP for me would be Lotsa Pain.
