The CD, which is being produced by Butch Walker (AVRIL LAVIGNE, BOWLING FOR SOUP, PINK), can currently be pre-ordered through the official SUPERNOVA store. If you pre-order the album, you will receive a free bonus collector's edition DVD which features audition interview footage with the 15 finalists ? not available anywhere else. Unfortunately this pre-order is available to United States residents only. SUPERNOVA is using the "Rock Star" TV program to search for a lead singer from a pool of 15 contestants selected in auditions around the world.

I hope they do well, but judging by the original Supernova material I've heard, I don't think they'll be that successful. It's ok, nothing groundbreaking. And the contestants competing to front the band aren't anything special either. Title: Re: Supernova tourdates Post by: TAP on August 23, 2006, 01:19:27 PM I honestly haven't watched a single second of the TV show or heard a single note of their music, how close are they to choosing a singer?
Title: Re: Supernova tourdates Post by: bazgnr on August 24, 2006, 03:52:24 PM After hearing the two originals they've "rocked" so far, I am completely underwhelmed. It's not anything I'd listen to on the radio, let alone pay to see live. Just my opinion, of course, but the music, lyrics, and melodies seem mediocre at best...I think these guys are capable of far better.
They're two weeks away from choosing a singer at this point, I believe. Title: Re: Supernova tourdates Post by: tomass74 on August 27, 2006, 08:44:42 AM The whole thing reeks of gayness......
Title: Re: Supernova tourdates Post by: Top-Hatted One on August 27, 2006, 06:40:58 PM thats what happens when Gilby is most likely your lead songwriter. The songs are pretty good but nothing great. The rhythm section of tommy & jason is ace though! The show is entertaining. Should be interesting to see what the singer adds to the mix
Title: Re: Supernova tourdates Post by: tomass74 on August 28, 2006, 07:43:15 AM I didn't even hear the song. Or have the slightest interest in it..... Total sell out.

They are playing the DCU center.. That should be about 1/10 full. Title: Re: Supernova tourdates Post by: Neemo on September 18, 2006, 11:44:48 AM toronto is sold out...at least i couldn't buy tickets on ticketmaster
Title: Re: Supernova tourdates Post by: billsguy on September 19, 2006, 02:09:47 PM yeah i think you forget that the whole crowd will be "reality tv" viewers. lots of women, lots of fans who don't know that kind of music. their ticket sales are doing really well
Title: Re: Supernova tourdates Post by: codenameninja on September 19, 2006, 02:48:33 PM begs the question, why did Jason Newsted leave Metallica for this? :peace:

Title: Re: Supernova tourdates Post by: Robman? on September 30, 2006, 10:13:41 PM they make it seem like this awesome world tour, but so few US dates. This reeks of get on the road, make some $$ of an album, and then return to the usual stuff
Title: Re: Supernova tourdates Post by: Water Payment on October 14, 2006, 04:12:36 PM they make it seem like this awesome world tour, but so few US dates. This reeks of get on the road, make some $$ of an album, and then return to the usual stuff I have to agree with you on this one. Where will that leave Lukas? Poor guy thinks he has a future with this band. No dates near me and no plans of traveling to see them. I'll wait for song bytes before I decide to buy the CD or not. Title: Re: Supernova tourdates Post by: AxlReznor on October 14, 2006, 04:15:13 PM The only thing that would make those shows worth going to (other than Gilby and Jason of course), I believe will be The Panic Channel as opening act. Dave Navarro's amazing.
