Hey jonny. Thanks for the ping. :( I am sad about Nikko having to leave. I really did enjoy his performance last night. Oh well, I think he will have a better chance of getting a recording contract then Scott though.

Paranoia and Mr. Limousine Driver were my personal faves. Mark Farner was a guitar hero, then he decided to play keyboards (bad move).

Scott should be pulled from the show.

Savol eventually took a plea to a misdemeanor disorderly conduct rap and was fined $500, placed on a year's probation, ordered to complete a domestic violence or anger management program, and sentenced to a suspended 20-day jail term. [TSG initially incorrectly reported that the domestic violence charge was a felony. It was actually a fourth-degree misdemeanor.] At a July 2001 sentencing hearing, Municipal Court Judge K.J. Montgomery also extended a temporary protective order (issued at Martin's request for her and the baby) through July 2002.

BO CONSTATINE

[EmilyGeiger]

Yes I think her filing was a spite issue. She waited until the next day.

[stlnative]

Thanks everyone for the scoop on Scott.
He should have been gone a long time ago.

[texasflower]

Yep. I know girls like that.

[silent_jonny]

Hey! I surely thought Scott was done, but I'm not surprised that Nikko was booted instead.

[EmilyGeiger]

My husband was an asst. district attorney. He dealt with domestic violence. He got to where he could determine the true cases from the spite ones. When he read the article on Scott he said it sounded like a spite one. Of course we don't know and I am sad he Scott has not learned to control himself. He needs to rise above his background. I just don't like to see someone with talent throw it away. Especially since I would love to have that talent.!

What soul music did Nadia sing? I must have missed it. I remember Paul McCartney, Cyndi Lauper, and another classic rock song she did, but I don't recall any soul music.

IIRC, Mr. Limousine Driver was when they were Mark Don and Terry (Knight).

Mark's KBs on Footstompin' Music were pretty good. But they brought Craig on and pretty much killed the great old-fashioned 3-man band sound that made them so unique.

Man could Mark kick a$$ on the guitar -- the Marathon cuts on Caught In The Act should have put him up there with Hendrix and Trower.

[EmilyGeiger]

I'm not either. I think mystery is right that he didn't have the fan base. But I like the rhythm and blues genre, so I for one am going to miss him.

Actually I was just a little kid then so mine would have to be Tom Selleck and Bo Duke. Whew, those 80's were awesome!

[missyme]

And for the girls in the 70's David Cassidy and Greg Brady
Nah!

I was a definite Partride Fan!

It's always Marsha, Marsha Marsha!

[EmilyGeiger]

LOL..great minds. :)

[silent_jonny]

If they had to kick one R&B guy off, I would've preferred Anwar. Not that Nikko is a better singer, but he is more likable, I think.

[missyme]

Definetly Agree with ya! :)

[EmilyGeiger]

I totally agree. I like Anwar at first but the more he sings the more his nasal tone comes out. I cannot stand a nasal singer. Plus I loved to listen to Clay sing but couldn't watch him doing it. Anwar does the same type facial stuff and it just makes me shudder.
