Rockstar: INXS

Last week I brought this show up to try and get everyone to check it out. The last 2 weeks have had 2 of the most unbelievable performances. Last week Jordis did a version of Man Who Sold the World that was better than Kurt Cobain's and David Bowie's combined. I'm serious. It was so good that INXS asked her to do an encore of it the next night. It was truly beautiful. Last night Marty was supposed to cover Mr. Brightside by The Killers with the House Band(who are surprisingly very, very good), but 10 minutes prior to the show he decided to do the song by himself acoustically. It was so fucking jaw-dropping. It was better than the killers version for sure and was just awesome. He was the first to do anything acoustic and it surprised and impressed the INXS members to call for a show next week of just acoustical performances. Now, this showing by Marty was so damn fantastic I can almost guarantee they'll ask for an encore tonight from him. So here's my point: I'm pleading with you all to catch the show tonight just to see this song sung. Not only will you get that, but you will get to see the 3 people who got the least amount of votes from the fans perform an INXS song and then the band will decide who is going home. Please check this out. It's only a half hour and is definitely worth it!

Oh and I watched Real World last night but it was interupted by the damn thunderstorm. I need a new cable system...every time the wind blows the wrong way my cable fuzzes out.

I thought it was the case that when he blows the cable guy, the signal improves.

Is there any way I can forget that the last few posts happened?

You boys are awful humans and should have your eyes burned out of their sockets.
