Rock Star: Led Zeppelin????

Huh? Really????? Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh wait...before I get too far ahead of myself here...it isn't a sure thing. In fact, at this point, it is just speculation. It seems that the boys of Zep want to tour again. Well...most of the boys of Zep that it. Robert Plant isn't completely sold on the idea, so the others are talking about finding a new singer and touring any way.

Producer Dave suggested that Rock Star could be a great way for them to find that lead singer. And I am in 100% agreement!

How awesome would it be to have Led Zeppelin touring again? And how amazing would it be to have Rock Star back on our TV's???

So...is there anything you can do about it? Well...yeah! Make your voice heard!!!

There is an article complete with a poll about bringing various reality shows back to the air found at TV Week. Place your vote for Rock Star. Also, scroll down to the bottom of the article and leave a comment detailing why you think it would be a good idea!

Then head over to the Rock Star: Led Zeppelin thread at RockBandLounge.com and talk with other fans about your ideas for how to make this happen.

And while your at RockBandLounge.com, jump on into The Big Letter Writing Campaign thread to find more ways to make your voice heard.

Rock Star: Led Zeppelin could be a huge hit. Brooke Burke, our lovely host, is riding high right now on Dancing With the Stars, and will likely be cruising to a victory shortly. We could once again be exposed to great new talent, like Ryan Star, Marty Casey, JD Fortune, Zayra Alvarez, Storm Large, Suzie McNeil, and so many others! If this is something that you want to see, do something about it!

EDIT: Led Zeppelin fans...what do you think? Leave a comment on this blog, or head over to the official Led Zeppelin forum to chime in on it.

Jordis's Reign Comes to an End

At RockBandLounge.com's Rock Star: All Stars competition, Jordis Unga had been crowned the new Queen of the Bottom Three, taking over that title from Suzie McNeil. However, she has now been voted out after countless visits to the Bottom Three. She finally just ran out of steam and momentum.

While she still hasn't released any new music since her stint on Rock Star: INXS, you can still check out her myspace page to stay abreast of what she is up to.

Other members of this week's Bottom Three were Magni and Josh Logan, both second-time visitors to the Bottom Three. If they are one of your favorites, be sure to visit RockBandLounge.com and vote for them to keep them alive in the competition.

In other Rock Star: All Stars news, there is a Big Twist that is soon to be revealed. Stay tuned for more information!

And don't forget to keep sending in letters to CBS! We want more Rock Star on our TV's!

Wave Goodbye to Patrice...

This week, RBL's Rock Star: All Stars Competition said goodbye to Patrice Pike. Falling into the Bottom 3 for the third week in a row, it seems that voters have decided that they are bored with her. She may have had spectacular vocals, but sometimes her passion didn't come through in performing the covers required by Rock Star.

If you want to hear more from Patrice, visit her Official MySpace Page, and be sure to check her out if she comes to your area.

Other members of the Bottom 3 this week were Ty Taylor (making his second appearance in the Bottom 3) and Jordis Unga. They have both survived for at least another week of the competition, but if you want to be sure they stay in it, you have to vote!

Note that the address for the All Stars competition has changed. Click on the new link in this post to find it. And now, if you are a registered member at RockBandLounge.com, your login will work for voting. You no longer need to register seperately for the All Stars competition.

Be sure that you vote, if you want your favorites to stay in the competition! And don't forget to send in your letters to CBS. We want more Rock Star on our TV's!

Two More Gone

This week on RockBandLounge.com's Rock Star: All Stars Competition, we said goodbye to two more rockers: Dilana from Season Two and Brandon Calhoon from Season One. This one was a very sad week for me, since I find Dilana to be insanely talented and Brandon, though not everyone's cup of tea, is one of my absolute hands-down favorites from both seasons. I loved him. I still love him.

And while I'm not surprised at Brandon's early departure, I find myself shocked that Dilana is gone so soon! She finished second in her season, she only landed in the Bottom 3 during the show twice, and she turned in some seriously amazing performances. I honestly have to chalk this one up to Dilana no longer having an active fanbase at RockBandLounge.com, and also having several "enemy" fanbases, so to speak. It seems that people saw her as some seriously stiff competition, so when she happened to fall into the Bottom 3, they jumped on it and made sure to get her out. While I may not like it, as I am approaching this competition as a fun way to relive some great memories, and to get Rock Star back on TV, I know that there are others who are taking to it in a different manner. And there's nothing wrong with that! It's just not the way I have chosen to go about it, so I am now attempting to prepare myself for more of the same.

Anyways...if you want to hear more from Dilana, check out her MySpace page. And for more from Brandon, you can visit his MySpace page. Even though they may have left the competition early, they are both great artists, so be sure to support them!

On a side note, the Writers Guild began their strike on Monday of this week. This means that the various networks will be running out of new episodes of their scripted dramas and comedies as early as January, so they are looking for alternative unscripted shows to fill their airwaves! Now is the perfect time to be sending in letters and emails, demanding more Rock Star on our TV's! Visit RockBandLounge.com's Big Letter Writing Campaign Thread for more info on how to get our voices heard! And while you're already at RockBandLounge.com, check out the All Stars Competition and get ready to vote again. Starting Sunday, all of the remaining singers are in one pool, all vying for your votes!

TV Writer's Strike Looming...Rock Star on the Horizon?

So, you're like me and you loved Rock Star and you miss Rock Star, right? Well, now might be as good a time as any to tell the executives at CBS that you want more Rock Star on your TV!

The Writer's Guild is preparing to go on strike, possibly as soon as Thursday. And if that is the case, there will be no one to write the episodes of Gray's Anatomy and Lost that viewers love so much, so television executives are looking at alternative ways to fill their time slots. What does that mean for the viewers? Lots of reality television. Networks could run out of new episodes of our favorite scripted dramas and comedies possibly as early as January. So...if you want CBS or one of the other networks to pick up Rock Star for a third season, LET THEM KNOW!

How do you do that? Check out The Big Letter Writing Campaign Thread at RockBandLounge.com for both snail mail and email addresses for the people to contact! And then send them a letter. And maybe send them another one tomorrow. And another on Wednesday. And...well...you get the picture.

Oh yeah, and while you're already at RockBandLounge.com, why don't you join us in our Rock Star: All Stars Game in order to relive great memories of why we love Rock Star so much in the first place.
