Britain HAS got talent.

OK what would the judges say about your band?

[SteveO]

erm... what does buzzing mean? is it a good thing or a bad thing?

[thisnameistaken]

They wouldn't have much of an opportunity to say anything, because our performance would involve executing them, the audience, the production crew and hopefully some viewers at home.

Proper laugh out loud in the middle of the office...

[jonsmith]

A band I was in was asked if we would be interested in taking part. Whilst Simon Cowell undoubtedly has a skill in spotting what can be successfully marketed to a significant proportion of the population, I seriously doubt that he would have had the slightest understanding of what we were about. As for the other two... We declined.

Its been a while since ive laughed out loud whilst browsing!

"I've got another english term for you, sh*tehawk."

haha.

[JTUK]

I'd be laughing at Amanda Holden's frozen face so much, I couldn't play.
That has to be the worse example of cosmetic adjustment ever...

But..in reality, I'd be thinking what do they know about music anyway.

[El Bajo]

Difficult one.

For amanda the band would have to be beefed up and topless, preferably with a child singer that sings opera and is an orphan (for the sad story)

Simon would be loking at complete pop music so dancy kind of beats, or maybe a cover of a Les miserables song complete with dance troop from the local estate that have had a hard time (again sob story)

Piers would need something quaint and English with a rap (Remember DJ talent). So maybe some tweed and a 6 year old ballerina with no 2 front teeth.

Sound like a winner

[Chris2112]

Simon would buzz and say "indulgent rubbish, jazz fusion should be left to the 1970's".

[Cat Burrito]

I don't watch the show & don't know the exact format but I think I get the general idea. At the risk of sounding elitist or cult-like, I think what my band does is quite an underground scene so I wouldn't imagine we'd suit the style of the show. But hypothetically our positives would be that we do what we do well - two of the band are professional musicians so the standard of playing is quite high. The downside for us would be firstly alt.country is a bit specialist so we are limited as a band in terms of our appeal and secondly, we are from Reading - why do we sound so American? I can imagine Simon Cowell picking up on that!

[Dubs]

I think our singer could be queezed through the marketability mould at Cowell HQ, but as for the rest of us, naaaaaaah.

"Help, save us, they're killing us" ... <sllllashhhhhhhh-snickkk> "ugghhhhh...." <bleeeeeeed>

Oh if only :ph34r:
