I hate the people on Rockstar.com. HATE. I've continued the argument and for some reason I can't stop. Half of it is because they are all SOOOO stupid and by wanting the show to happen is like wanting to kill VH completely. The other half is because they are all pussy VH sheep I despise them. By the way another article by undercover.com sheds some more light on the situation. It doesn't seem like anyone really knows FUCK about anything that is happening.

And The Next Band To Use Reality TV To Find A Singer Is...
by Eve Jenkin
Rumours have been circling the internet since the conclusion of reality TV series "Rock Star: INXS" as to who the next band would be that uses the talent quest to find a lead singer. "Will it be Queen or Van Halen?" asked many, but the truth is it's neither. The next "Rock Star" band is most likely....Camp Freddy.
"Camp who?" one might ask. Well it all makes sense when informed that "Rock Star: INXS" host Dave Navarro is in the band. That's right, according to an industry insider who told Undercover Camp Freddy, comprising the aforementioned Navarro alongside Billy Morrison (The Cult), Matt Sorum (Guns N Roses), Chris Chaney (Jane's Addiction) and Donovan Leitch Jr, will be the band looking for their very own JD Fortune in 2006.
If you're not familiar with the band, guitarist Billy Morrison explains it all on Camp Freddy's official web site. "Camp Freddy is not a band, but it is also way more than a jam session...Camp Freddy is an 'Occasional Happening', a freak of (Hollywood) nature," he says. "What happens when we get together and play is anyone's guess. Surprise guests, lounge singers turned heavy rock superstars, some of the world's greatest guitarists playing three chord punk tunes. I mean, who knows what will happen at the next show? It's not about money, or managers, or agents, but about motivation and fun...What we all got into the business for originally. We play some of the greatest rock and roll songs ever written, have a real laugh doing it, and invite artists that we respect to play them with us. It's the real spirit of Rock and Roll."
Dave Navarro must have been so impressed with last year's results he decided to utilized the format to gain a similar surge in publicity as INXS did circa the TV show's airing. You never know this could even be the way Navarro brings back Jane's Addiction.
