I'm not sure how big INXS are in the rest of the world, but they are the best thing Australia has ever produced. I'm sure some of you are familiar with they obscure death of lead singer Micheal Hutchence (he accidently asphyxiated himself while masturbating), which has left INXS without a lead singer. They are now making yet another reality television show in an attempt to find a replacement. Good idea or offense to Michaels memory?

Oh jeez. Are you serious? :mad:

I was a big fan of INXS way back in the day (even owned the Max-Q releases), but this is out of hand.

If they want to get another singer and have a go at it: cool deal.

Having a "reality" show about it: *projectile vomits*
Cannot think of a name

I reckon INXS were shit right from the start, the less I hear of them the better. Getting a new front man can only be bad.

I've heard them too much. I though at least with Hutchence dieing it would be the end of any new music from them.

INXS were a pop trendy watered down version of an already watered down band.

That being U2.

Great, put another slob in front of the microphone and throw out some more mediocre crap on the airwaves.

Why the hell not?

Yeah, the new stuff was pretty crap.

I'm not sure how big INXS are in the rest of the world, but they are the best thing Australia has ever produced.You know, it is not usually all that wise to claim one band / artist is better than another if you don't want a conflict of opinions clouding your thread, suffice to say I'd back Ben Lee (www.ben-lee.com) for that title ... I'm sure some of you are familiar with they obscure death of lead singer Micheal Hutchence (he accidently asphyxiated himself while masturbating), which has left INXS without a lead singer.Nope, I guess that makes it very obscure, eh ? :p They are now making yet another reality television show in an attempt to find a replacement. Good idea or offense to Michaels memory?Well, provided they air it late enough so kids don't see another bunch of no talent wank-artists making a fool of them - ... oh, you mean for singing ... right ...

<_<

>_>

heh ...

EDIT : Errr, what channel is it going to be on ?

Might as well milk the INXS name for whatever money its worth. If the reality show becomes popular it could even put them on the map again. If they dont do anything drastic they will remain dead. Its always been a mediocre band anyway.
