Double The Pleasure, Double The Pain - 
by copygodd
After six weeks, Rock Star: Supernova is finally starting to pick up some steam. The performances are getting better, the infighting's getting meaner, and Leon's getting larger. Still, it hasn't quite reached "water cooler" levels yet. So what's an unemployed Nebraska Cornhusker drummer to do if wants to drum up a little controversy for his show? (Get it? Drum up?) Well, he could release another sex tape. But really, how many people want to see Tommy Lee use his junk as a billiards cue? (Besides sg-dub, of course.) Or, he could steal a page from The Donald's book and cut two people at once. Because cutting two people at once is a THIRTY BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY!
Besides, that's just how T-Grease rolls.
Bitches.
After introducing the band and TheDave, Brooke says the performances from last night's show still give her goosebumps. Other things that give her goosebumps:
Of course, before we get to the eliminations, we get a look at some more mansionanigans. (I just made that up.) Gilby shows up riding a Harley, which isn't clichéd at all. He says he has a present for the final ten rockers: mani/pedis! Ryan's a little disappointed, as he'd just painted his nails black for his turn as the Raccoon King. But not nearly as disappointed as Dilana, who, after three centuries of experience, knows that no matter what she does to her nails, by morning they'll have grown back to their natural hooked talon shape. Still, it could be worse: at least they're not going tanning. Actually, they each get their own new Gibson guitar. Yawn. My idea would've been so much more fun.
The prodigal Gilby returns.
After a quick recap of last night's performances, we get some footage of the rockers celebrating at the mansion. At first, they're all happy-garden-party and I'm looking forward to Lukas breaking out the croquet set. But soon enough, the mood changes as Jill starts in on the other rockers for not trying harder to play with Gilby. Storm doesn't agree that they should've fought for the song: "Never once have they ever said, 'if we're on the board, you better fight'." Come on Storm, do they really have to spell it out that much? It's kind of the point of the whole competition, isn't it? The show isn't called Rock Star: House Band.
Jill agrees with me, saying she doesn't understand the other rockers' reluctance. If they want to front Supernova, why wouldn't they fight for a chance to play with them? Could it be because they're all askeered? "It comes down to how serious you are about playing with this band," she tells them. Oh, midget-snap! Storm says that Jill could've picked that song, too. But Jill reminds Storm that she already sang with Gilby. And by "sang", of course, she means "humped." Storm points out that Gilby hated Jill's performance with him. And he still has the stained pants to prove it.
Storm says she didn't play with Gilby because she wanted to sing "We Are The Champions." Which of course is code for "I left my balls at home." Which she did. You know, because her band's name is "Storm and The Balls"...? Oh never mind.
"Maybe a dingo ate Storm's balls..."
Later, Storm tells us she doesn't feel pressure to get up there and prove she can play with Gilby. "I know I can do it," she says. "And he knows I can do it. And if he doesn't know I can do it, then he's just going to have to take my word for it when I say that I can totally do it. Because I can, you know. Do it."
