VH-1: Supergroup
 
from melodicrock.com:



VH1 START FILMING SUPERGROUP REALITY SERIES:

Exclusive - Stand by for a new reality TV show. VH1 commenced filming on their new show - tentatively titled Supergoup - this week in Las Vegas.

The premise of the show is to lock several musicians in a house for 10 days and get them to write and record some new original music. Originally the network wanted the group to record an album, but at this time it is understood they will settle for one song and hope for more.

So just who makes up this supergroup which has until now, been kept under wraps? The line-up is: Scott Ian (Anthrax) - Guitar; Ted Nugent - Guitar; Evan Seinfeld (Biohazard) - Bass; Sebastian Bach (ex-Skid Row) - Vocals and Jason Bonham (Bonham, UFO, Foreigner) - Drums.

In addition to the 5 musicians, star manager Doc McGhee is in charge and is also living in the house for the duration of filming/recording.

The show will air on VH1 in later this year.

They should call that show "Group" 'cause the "Super" sure is missing.

Doesnt Ted Nugent have enough experience with "supergroups?" I mean, I am still waiting for the third Damn Yankees album.

Fielding Mellish 02-24-06 09:14 AM

I thought Sebastian Bach was already part of a "supergoup", too...

I'm in. Bas Bach, Scott Ian and Nugent in a band? Should be fun.

And I too, am waiting for the 3rd Damn Yankees album. :D

rkndkn 02-24-06 11:56 AM

I'm in. Can't pick a much better vocalist than Sebastian Bach.

Cusm 02-24-06 01:04 PM

I would be in except for Bach, of all the out of work former rock stars this is the one they settle for?

JAA 02-24-06 03:55 PM

I'm definitely in. Thanks for the heads-up. :)

Mordred 02-24-06 05:00 PM

This should be good. Ian, Bonham and Nugent definitely get my interest, but Bach puts me over the top. As just about my favorite '80s metal vocalist lets hope he's still up to form... I know the other guys are.

Sebastian Bach -- Keep bottles away from him. Never really a fan of Skid Row.

Scott Ian -- Cool dude.

Ted Nugent -- Shitty guitarist, even worse songwriter.

Evan Seinfeld -- Been doing hardcore porn since he got out of Oz. Didn't know he was still playing music. Hell, if I could fuck Tera Patrick any time I wanted to, I'd consider a career change.

Jason Bonham -- I'll cut the guy some slack even though he's been riding on his dad's coattails for two decades.

All in all, it's a pretty lame line-up. Maybe that's what they're going for.

I would've preferred a better vocalist and lead guitarist. Bach and Nugent are both pretty weak; and Flea would've been a riot to have around. I'd name Dave Navarro as a lead guitar candidate, since he's been whoring himself out to reality TV a lot lately. (But not with Flea, I remember Dave's brief tenure in RHCP and don't want that to happen again. Ever.)

My ideal line-up might look something like:

Vocals -- David Lee Roth (might as well run with the concept)

L Guitar -- George Lynch, Alex Skolnick, or someone else similar. Maybe let Yngwie unleash the fucking fury.

R Guitar -- Scott Ian (eh, I like Scott, he'd be good to have around)

Bass -- Flea

Drums -- Jason Bonham

This could be great, too bad we don't get VH1 here in Canada.

movieking 03-24-06 06:47 AM

I would rather this group be on Rock Star, and have Tommy Lee and his gang here. This group is far superior to me.

Any chance we'll hear Sebastian bust out Hollaback Girl again?

Oh, Sir, but you DO have the internet in Canada!

Mok 05-22-06 10:04 AM

Wasn't a bad show, I liked seeing the guys but heads, from the preview there seems to be some fists thrown later on in the season. Can't wait to see what name they come up with for the group.

GuessWho 05-23-06 10:17 AM

Liked the first episode :up:


Bach's list of potential song titles (stored on his laptop) was hilarious. It's like a 4th grader thought of them.

GuessWho 05-23-06 10:21 AM


As just about my favorite '80s metal vocalist
The debut album came out in 1989.

Can he really define a decade when he existed for 10% of it? ;)

Lee Harvey Oswald 05-23-06 09:52 PM

I like the first ep. I'm not that crazy about Bach as a singer or songwriter, but I like the guy. Ian is in the first band I feel in love with so its cool to see him. Nugent - never liked his music, but he is somewhat entertaining. Evan & Bonham I'm not really familar with. It would have been cool if they could have gotten Tommy Lee on drums.

Nah . . . I've seen too much Tommy Lee the past couple of years. Watch Bonham play . . . and prepare to be amazed.

FantasticVSDoom 05-24-06 07:39 AM

Well I dvr'd it so Ill watch it tonight...I hate Bach, Bonham, and Nugent, but big fan of Biohazard and Anthrax so this will be fun tonight to watch. Off topic question here but anyone know if they are going to replay the Behing the Music of Pantera again any time soon? I caught the last 10 minutes of it, and thought it was the best BTM I've seen, just based on the fact that Phil is really the biggest whack job in music. Anyways, sorry to derail the thread, but was just wondering if anyone knew off hand.

Gil Jawetz 05-24-06 07:57 AM

Tommy Lee is in Supernova, the other reality tv supergroup.

I thought the episode was just ok. I was really looking forward to it but it's edited in a slack way somehow. PLus a little Nuge goes a long way. Still, I'll watch. Almost more entertaining was the post-show on VH1 Classic where the guys (minus Nuge) sat around with Eddie Trunk basicall cracking wise on each other. That was very fun.

Friday night at 9pm.

bradler 05-24-06 04:32 PM

Nugent: "so how do you pronounce your name?"
...
"ok, get cooking"

and gotta love how they ripped apart the "backstreet boys" people

Yeah, that was a fantastic BTM. Even my g/f, who doesn't know much about Pantera, thought it was the most compelling band bio she's ever seen.

They had a lot of old footage of the band from the early-to-mid 80s when they were "glam," which was kind of funny (esp. the bits where they were playing at what looked like a roller-rink), but they looked like they were having a lot of fun.

It would be great if they released this on DVD; it was fantastic. I'd even recommend it to people who hate metal music. (What would be really great would be themed boxed sets of BTM. I'd be first in line for the "metal" one!)

I was thinking more about the personality as opposed to the actual drumming talent. Bonham was pretty quiet this episode.
