I know, I know the show sucks. But did anyone see that song with that jeff beck guy (or whatever his name was) and I think Kelly Clarkson? That was a really nice looking set up that he had. Anyone know exactly what it was? I couldn't identify it from the tv. —I am super sweet |

I guess either no one has or no wants to admit it. Personally, I don't see the appeal of the show or understand how it has lasted as long as it has. But I know that wasn't the point of this thread so I'll shut up! —<img src="klzzwxh:0000"></img> |

I hate the show very as well. I never would have watched it, but my grandma came over, and she hasn't been here in half a year. But yeah, I only wathed it because she wanted to. All I know is that it was all nice and blonde, and either a dual showman or a bandmaster. I think his cab was a 2X15 as well. But I wasn't sure, so I decided to ask you guys. —I am super sweet |

I watched Elvis with Celine Dion on youtube (a friend sent it to me). He kicked her ass. —http://www.satanspilgrims.com |

Yeah he did - they should have just shown the Elvis footage without Celine. Not that I watched it or anything.... here's the link. "You can't tell where you're going if you don't know where you've been" |

Never underestimate the ability for the American people to inflict suffering upon themselves while at the same time entertaining themselves. |

I highly recommend seeing the movie Idiocracy if you want a glimpse of what the future of America will be if we keep supporting the mindless television reality series. Or just the movie. It is pretty freaking funny. _RT |

I read on another forum that Beck was using a Supersonic head/cab. I'm usually apathetic about singing but I disagree that Kelly Clarkson sucks. If there was ever one contestant on that show that can sing, she's it. —Don |

It's a brilliant movie--naturally the studio tried to kill it off. (No advertising, super-limited release, etc.) Seriously, anyone who hasn't seen it is missing out. -Warren —That was excessively violent and completely unnecessary. I loved it. |

I watched this on YouTube after reading this thread. Jeff played freakin' awesome, such amazing tone and TOUCH. And Kelly has got a set of pipes on her like few others. I think they both did amazingly well - too bad the song is pretty boring and kinda generic.... Ivan —Ivan |

I'll admit to watching the show early in the season when it takes a page from one of my all time favorite shows - "The Gong SHow." But as for the rest of the season, I would put it up as exhibit A as to why public opinion polls should never be a defining factor in setting public policy. Spanky |

Speaking of AI, did anyone see Sanjaya sing 'Bessame Mucho'? (One of my fav Ventures covers) Im sure it sucked, but, it would be neat to play the Ventures version but announce it as a Sanjaya song... |

i check the jeff beck site weekly to see what he is up to and it said he would be on that horrible show. my wife does watch it and she hollered for me to check becko out. the chick singer sucked. beck gave a lesson in touch guitar---nothing frantic or nutzo--great phrasing and touch. his usual strat but the amp seemed to be a fender rig--but i couldn't tell which model it was. thats the best i got on it now. peace
