OK, so I wake up this morning and turn on the tube and flip through the channels, and when I land on VH1, lo and behold there’s the new INXS. Does anyone wanna place bets on how soon this stinky new version of the group ends up in the bargain bins or on the shelves of your favorite used store? This is definitely one case where the band shouldn’t have played on. I didn’t keep up with their search for a new singer when it was on TV, but all I can say is that new guy (even if I remembered his name, he’d still only be worthy of the name “new guy”) reeks.
The other day on the Opie and Anthony Show on XM radio, new guy and INXS did an interview, and new guy sounded like the most retarded “Man, I’m so mellow, and I really feel the music” kind of dude I’ve heard in a long time. It was obvious just from that that the guy isn’t in his element and this whole thing is pointless. INXS would be smart just to put itself to bed and completely forget this chapter. Ah, but I s’pose it’s just like Queen trotting out a fellow dinosaur as of late to replace Freddie during some concerts and people gettin excited about that. The baby boomers really are starving for those good old daze, aren’t they?
