NBC's The Voice, Local Utah girl Dia Frampton to be a contestant

[colton]

I liked the first episode of The Voice a lot, and am excited to see Dia on the show. It will be interesting to see how good her voice really is--from the clips posted above she doesn't seem to have anywhere near the vocal talent of the singers on the first episode... but perhaps her voice is bigger than the clips illustrate.

In your opinion, guy. They actually played a pretty solid and inspirational show. I'm not their biggest fan, but it was well worth going. Do you think your band is better?

Better? You have to expand the parameters on that, and what people like is a matter of pure subjectivity. But I'll bite, I like what we do a whole hell of a lot more than I like Angels and Airwaves, but I don't think that's saying much. Most people are going to like Angels and Airwaves more (because they already do, for starters). All I know is Tom Delong (however you spell his name) is a hack of epic proportions, and they're riding his 12-year old/40-year old rockstar ******** all the way into eventual obscurity. It's also a snore-fest.

Nice. This is the reason so many women have body image issues.

On a side note, there is a pic at People Magazine online of her and her son at Disneyworld. Her son is wearing a t-shirt I designed and drew.

That's fair, but at the same time, that's what you sign up for when you start selling yourself as a sex symbol. Poor her? She's one of a handful of people in the last 10 years to probably earn 7-figures playing music, and she's done it as much with T & A as with anything else in that time. She's gone from a hardworking prodigy to whatever it is that I saw at the Super Bowl (a true professional that is on top of their **** would never fail that hard) and a hack artist (going from hurling insults at Lady Gaga to biting her style harder than anyone).

But you're right, that's a mean thing of me to say. Oh well, it's fun, and refer back to my earlier point.

Y'know, that's actually a really good point - and something I obviously hadn't considered when I made my statement. And it isn't fair of me to lay it at your feet - I think a lot of body image pressure comes from other women, and men's general expectations have followed.

We agree on all fronts. My girlfriend takes a lot more time and gets a lot more stressed dressing for girlfriends/events than she does for me and I don't think that's an unusual thing.

I read an article that "the Voice" beat out "Glee" and "Dancing with the Stars". Basically the article was saying that it was one of the biggest upsets in TV ratings in a very long time.

Should we make a poll, guy?

P.S. This is also coming from a guy who would have mad, passionate bohemiam love-man-sex with Ramstein.

Go ahead, make a poll, I care not. Also, Rammstein has TWO M's, pooh finger.

Which one of you is black?

You asked to see Kicky's. And according to this post, you've already seen Mike's. God help us. God help us all.

She's okay. From what I heard the first week, she doesn't have a chance to win it.

I agree. She did a nice job, but from what I've seen she's going to be out of her league.

On the other hand, you never know what people's taste is going to be like. I couldn't believe Casey got eliminated on Idol with Scotty still in it. (I can't stand Scotty's vocal style, I have to fast forward and/or mute his songs.)
