Which Band Needs A New Lead Singer?
We mentioned in today’s news wrap that Survivor producer Mark Burnett was developing a series sort of like Australian Idol but with a rawk edge - the winner would become lead singer of an already established internationally recognised band, or something like that.
My beloved Batson commented that the winner should take over Limp Bizkit since Fred Durst is rather crap (but sensitive), or something along those lines which got me thinking - what other bands need their lead singer ditched, possibly in favour of a reality TV show winner?
Obviously INXS are still looking for that perfect lead singer to replace Michael Hutchence (though I’m unsure whether Jon Stevens has resumed singing with them now he has all this free time post The Resort axing) - they’d be a lead contender for the band most needing a new singer via reality TV. I’m sure Popstars Live singer Kayne Taylor would love to step in those shoes!
So I ask you all - which band needs their lead singer replaced by a reality TV show winner? Points awarded for most creative answers but as per usual, points mean nothing and we can’t afford an actual prize.
