INTERVIEW
Storm Large
Out of the Vault! In this long-lost interview, the Rock Star:
Supernova finalist talks about life, music, and a certain TV
show...
"I liked working with Dave (Navarro). Even though he's a guitar god - you know this big famous guitar slinging guy
- he, I think put down the tastiest most supportive guitar. With no wanking whatsoever. Very conservative approach to the song, which just brought a lot out of the song. And he's funny, that guy is fucking funny. I love hanging out with him, he's a good guy."

against each other in Rock Star: All-Stars? And what if we
hosted the competition here at RBL as an incentive to get you
all to write more letters to CBS asking them to give us another
REAL season of Rock Star? Sound like a plan?

Rock Star: Season Three?
Join the Big Letter
Writing Campaign
Our favorite summer series isn't officially on CBS' schedule yet -
and it's getting late! Will Rock Star be back this summer? Kristin Veitch at Eonline reported
on her blog that CBS president Nina Tassler "doesn't yet know if
Rock Star will be back." If CBS' president "doesn't yet know,"
then maybe we can convince her! So what are we suggesting? How
about an old fashion letter writing campaign?
