'Rock Star' Band Sort of Changes Its Name

Supernova will now be called Rock Star Supernova

September 19 2006

Gilby Clarke, Tommy Lee and Jason Newsted of 'Rock Star: Supernova'The band formerly known as Supernova -- the one from the TV show, not the one that blocked the TV band's use of the name -- has found a new moniker.

Kind of.

The crew from "Rock Star: Supernova" -- Tommy Lee, Jason Newsted, Gilby Clarke and newly anointed singer Lukas Rossi -- are abiding by a federal judge's order that they can't perform or record under the name Supernova. Another band with that name successfully argued that Lee et al, who had a full summer of shows on CBS to promote themselves, would damage their ability to compete in the marketplace and won an injunction last week.

Instead, according to several news accounts, the band will now call itself Rock Star Supernova. See the difference there? Some reports have the band retaining the colon from the title of the TV show, others do not. Without the punctuation, one could interpret the band's name as meaning there's so much star power in the group, it burns with the brightness of a massive galactic event.

Either way, Rock Star Supernova has released two of its songs with Rossi to Yahoo Music and is scheduled to record an album later this year and go on tour at the end of December.

I guess I was the only one who liked Lukas.......LOL! I liked all four of the remaining singers but I honestly thought Lukas was the best fit. He didn't have the best voice but I think it suits their music. Oh well. As for the name change.....yes the fans of the show will know who they are but it sounds ridiculous!

    • Elements of it were silly, but it was a small price to pay to get Zas back. I should say there's a difference between in town and out of town returns. It's understandable for Roger to skulk around town in a bad wig and clown suit when he's in Springfield and running the risk of bumping in to people he knows.  Taking us out of town to find someone always has a short shelf life. Then it usually becomes about another character knowing X is alive but determined to keep them out of Springfield. Like Alan discovering Amish Reva. I don't know how long it went on, but it was probably twice as long as necessary.
    • Elizabeth Dennehy complained on the Locher Room about how ridiculous so much of the writing was for Roger's return. She laughed at so much of Roger's antics and how it was hard for her to take them seriously. Probably another reason she was fired as she didn't play the game.  
    • Only thing I enjoyed was Abby / Olivia, etc., and the addiction storyline. Otherwise, I could do without the season.
    • Right? Vanessa had a ball gown for every occasion.
    • Roger's return storyline may have been silly but Roger's return was what lead to GL's last golden era.  It was the combination of Roger's return and Robert Calhoun becoming EP that got GL to finally hit it's stride after some really bad years. It will always disappoint me that the ratings during Robert Calhoun's run didn't reflect the quality of the show.
    • He also gave some of the best episodes, like the episodes surrounding Doug's death. The problem with Days was that Ron had a horrible vision from he top. I don't feel the same for MVJ and nothing that has happened in all these months suggests she doesn't have a handle on the show. Now if it becomes an issue I'll acknowledge it, but I'm not seeing it so far.
    • Jean Hackney was awful and that lead to Ben's exit story which sucked. I liked Ben/Val together. Val's love for Ben was that of a grown woman moving on with her life and Ben's love for Val made him willingly decide to raise another man's children as his own.
    • It wasn't just a GL thing, it was an 80s thing. Opulent party scenes on soaps were very big back then. Even in regular episodes where people are just going to dinner they're dressed up like they're going to see royalty.
    • Just started the May 27 episode and first thing I see is that Willow got an ugly haircut since hte last time i watched   I dont have the context for how everthing went down but I know its all Lulu's fault which make her a bish for what she did to Gio
    • I'm pretty sure he was. But point taken. GL really had a thing for masked and costumed balls/parties in the '80's. Everyone looks fabulous, but those poor costume designers.
