Saving you a trip to the Rockband forums:

Quote
Even with a good half hour of dialogue cut -- the Gilby/Jill sparring, for example, went on at least twice as long as shown -- you got the gist of it. But I know there's one blank that needs filling right now:

After the Hatchet Man chopped Phil, you all saw him standing there saying his final words to them. What you didn't see was Dave suddenly piping up with "Do you get newspapers up at the Mansion, Phil?"

"No."

"Well," says Dave, "we do. Let me read you something." He whips out a newspaper and proceeds to read from an interview with Phil, in which Mr. Ritchie states that the reason he’s doing the show is to promote himself and his own band. What’s more, he doesn’t even like Supernova’s music!

Phil is taken aback when confronted by this, but does admit that he didn’t like “the Supernova riff” (or something like that). Tommy, meanwhile, looks like he’s just been stabbed in the heart. (You can see a shot like this in the show.) He turns to the other Rockers and warns ALL of them NOT to make the band or their work look bad with the media or in the press. Gilby then tells Phil that Tommy was absolutely devastated to be letting him go and that he hadn't wanted to do it.
Dumb of Phil to do, yes.  But very, VERY bitchy of Dave and Supernova.  They should've confronted him at the mansion about it or something.  The point of elimination shows is that you sing to save yourself.  They have shown that no matter how much you put into your performance, they'll disregard the concept of the show and chop you for any bitchy reason they want.  The highroad would've been confront him quietly and to let that article die a silent death.

Screw that, if he wasn't there for the right reasons, a little talk isn't going to change it; he's not going to suddenly dump his band and be a solid member of Supernova.  I don't see it as being bitchy at all.  These are auditions.  They're a public spectacle and not normal auditions, but they're still auditions.  When somone says or does something that makes it clear they wouldn't fit with the band and wouldn't be a good choice, you tell them to get out.

Phil: "I don't like Gilby's hair" = bitchy reason

Phil: "I'm not here to be part of Supernova and I don't like their music" = not bitchy reason

That article came out on the 7th, plenty time for Phil to have been called on it.  A bunch of the others have their own bands, and are probably in it for similar if not the same reasons.  People in last season's INXS show also said similar crap and I thought INXS handled that easily and maturely:  Firstly, they didn't bother to read a bunch of the press and focused on the work on the stage.  Secondly, they gave the job to the most qualified person who wanted it the most: J.D. Fortune.  Runner-up Marty Casey had the Lovehammers, and there was no way he was becoming a permanent fixture of INXS.  They didn't whine and toss him out in a spectacle, they just didn't give him the job.  Same for anyone else who wasn't completely into it.

I understand that Phil wasn't gonna win and he was leaving soon anyway, but I'm just annoyed with how they handled it.  They didn't even air the part about the article, yet it was enough to kick him off the show?  That kinda thing annoys me.  Either choose to involve that article or don't.

Another add-to... the official Rocker blogs have been edited.  (Since I read some of the changes pre-edit, I can actually attest to this.)  Also, Phil Ritchie's dad apparently commented on Dave Navarro's blog (6767.com).  Among the many, many things he had to say, his son is a winner in his eyes.  Alls I can say is nobody's dad should go around defending their son's rocker cred unless he's Alice Cooper or someone.  Jus' saying.

Songs for this week:

Patrice – Higher Ground (Stevie Wonder)
Josh – Santeria (Sublime)
Dilana – Can’t Get Enough (Bad Company)
Toby – Pennyroyal Tea (Nirvana)
Zayra – 867-5309 (Tommy Tutone)
Magni – Clocks (Coldplay)
Jill – Don’t You (Forget About Me) (Simple Minds)
Ryan – Losing My Religion (R.E.M.)
Lukas – Celebrity Skin (Hole)
Storm – Changes (David Bowie)
Dana – Baba O’Riley (The Who)

That's right, Zayra's doin' Tommy Tutone.

The performances will be available online after the show, and by that I mean the individual performances so you can pick and choose who you want to see.  I'm not certain how to get them since I can't get one speck of MSN content to play for me.  I know when you go to the "Watch Episodes" part of the website and skim over the various rockers, one of the options you get is "Latest Performance".

If you go to Slow Roll's post, there are links there.  Or you could save the file in Notepad and play them all.  These are just performances, no feedback fluff or anything.

Me Hate Zayra Long time. She looked like a god damn stripper out there....Which probably'll keep'er from getting the boot.

Dilana was, as always, on the ball and very good. AND? I can now say I am impressed by Ryan with his performance of Losing My Religion. Very nice, very ballsy.

I don't want it to be easy, I want it to be right.

Dilana needs some work on her moves.  She seems awkward when she goes about the stage.  Dana would get reamed for the same behavior.  Did you get a load of that guy that gave Dilana a ride back to the stage, E?  That's her boyfriend Steve or Steven.  Some name like that.  But that's her boyfriend.

Just as I was getting into Ryan's performance, he got to that part where it goes "That's me in the corner" and he spat something!  Merla says it was a booger, but there's this white speck on his piano and the whole time it was on screen I couldn't stop staring at the damn thing.  It completely detracted from his performance.

I was actually entertained by Zayra, even though I thought Dave's comments about "changing it up" were more of less full of shit.  That was identical to "Call Me" and that Kinks tune she mutilated twice.  Gilby's comments were just stupid.  I think it's gotten to the point where she's so terrible and Suave Porn (aka Supernova) are so resistant towards getting rid of her no matter what that I've had to accept that she's gonna be here to stay for a while longer.

On the shallow end, Toby's hot and I like seeing him on my tee vee.  But musically and performance-wise, he's also very forgettable.  There's nothing he's done so far that makes me want a copy.  He's not a bad singer by any means, he's just doesn't give me any goosebumps.  How very sad.  Even sadder was that Toby was in the early bottom three.  They need to imbue into Toby that he needs to get charged and seriously shake things up.  Come on, Tobes!

It's more of less the same deal with Magni.  I didn't like his first performance, but his later ones are better.  Still, he's not a memorable dude for me.  I think that he was all "boo hoo, my family" actually saved him from the bottom three.  I find whenever I'm making a list of people/performances/songs I like and don't, I ALWAYS forget Magni.

I like Patrice.  I don't see her going very far and I'm still not digging her twang.  Her little faux-hawk tonight was awesome though.  She was putting more energy into it, and I wanna see more of that.

Reggae, I don't really dig.  Josh, I don't really dig.  He's not a bad performer by any means but he's so in the wrong show it isn't funny.

Jill, Jill, what were you thinking?  "Don't You" doesn't need to be done "Gioia-style" with your wailing and shouting.  It was like bad kareoke.  On the other hand, I find I like adding Gioia-style to the ends of sentences.  It might even fit the fortune cookie thing where you add "in bed" at the end.    Let's ride this monkey.... Gioia-style!

Lukas was terrible, but he ain't going no where.

Storm, I wasn't impressed with.  Instead of it being something smooth and slow, it was like her other performances toned down.  If it's gonna be like her other performances, she might as well bring that infectious energy I love.  I so disagree with Jason.  I wanna slap him.

Dana and Baba O’Riley.  She can sing, but who cares.  All I could think about was Jordis.  Dana's eyes are weird, too, and I spent the whole song trying to improve it.  I don't think Dana deserves to leave.

Again, I was shocked that Toby got early bottom 3.  I knew Jill would be there, and Zayra by default.  I have a feeling those two are gonna stay there and it'll be either Dana or Josh who join them.

A lot of ppl think Ryan's gonna get the encore, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was Dilana again.

I don't think that was a skirt.  More like an oversized blouse.  I wonder if that woman has ever been to rock concert because she doesn't seem to know how to rock.

I don't think it was a skirt or a blouse.  It was like a loose leotard/hotpants combo type of thing.

Don't know, Don't care, it screamed whore.
Hopefully, she goes home tonight so I don't have to hear her BUTCHER SONGS!!!

Though, if she actually sang something in spanish, I think it would sound excellent.

I tell you, I can't predict these guys.  They always send someone else home.  The only time I came close was when Matt pulled out that Duran, Duran song, so then I prayed for the safe guidance of his eternal rocker soul.

Jill was shouting in pieces of that Heart song.  I found it painful.  People at other forums loved it, but all I could hear was singing mixed with her rocking Gioia-style.  "It chills me to the B-AWWWW-NE!"  OMG.  She can sing but she still insists on shrieks and horrible contrived micstand kicks.  Then they sat her ass down.  Eek.

Patrice, I think, just hasn't been bringing it so I was fearful because overall I think she CAN bring it, and it's too early for her to go before Jill and Dana.  I liked her performance with Tommy, but I did see her in some real danger tonight.  Dana's "hyuck, I got my first tattoo" didn't exactly endear me tho'.  And I forwarded her performance.

I'm mildly entertained by Zayra, but just the same, the people voting for her are really pissing me off.  "Ho ho, I threw a few votes at Z to keep the freak around."  "Tee hee, I can't wait to see what Catshit Crazy does next so I voted for her."  If anybody else besides Jill leaves before Z, I will cry foul.  Even reggaeman Joshy is miles above Barbarella Conchita Alonzo.

Now that I've said this, Chica de E.T.'s probably gonna have the best original song next week.

It looks unnatural. Like in 20 years her skins is going to have the color and consistency of leather.

And the guy on her right looks unnatural out of his closet.
