REALITY BYTES

Rock of Love Bus, or Rock of Love 3 is so over the top of anything that reality TV has peeked at yet! With three teenagers in the house, I changed the password on my cable block, because of this show.

I don’t want to come home after work, to find my teen kids have broken through this block I installed. Damn!! Brett, I swear ta-God, this Rock of Love Bus has nothing to do with rock, love or anything relative to music. This one is all about sleaze and sex. Truly, your production crew must have had the “key grips” gripping something besides the the equipment.

Out of all of the women that were chosen for Rock of Love Bus, 18 of them must have been vaccinated with about every shot that could help prevent sexual transmitted diseases. God help Brett Michaels if he didn’t carry around a box of double insulated rubbers, STD cream and a heavy duty, industrial strength carton of Lysol with him on his tour.

Immediately, Brett Michaels recognized Brittany, from her hardcore porn industry work. Brit has a real taste for hardcore action. Give this a few more episodes and I am sure more sordid pasts will creep out of the closets, concerning more contestants from Rock of Love Bus.

More to the point: Did I like Rock of Love Bus? Would I ever recommend this show to anyone but my bar buddies? This is a mixed question, with no easy answers. Most of the time, I laughed my butt off throughout this first Rock of Love Bus episode; but then, I am perverse, in a jaded sort of way.

When the Rock of Love Bus hit the road, there were a few of the women that felt they were in, way over their heads. The sleaze factor was kicking into high gear and some of the contestants pulled Brett Michaels aside, telling him that they were out of their element. Brett did what he always does. He convinced them to stay onboard his Rock of Love Bus.

Are their a few cat fights? Plenty! Is there much drinking and drugs? Hey, this is the Rock of Love! Is there any girl, on girl scenes? More than you can shake a stick at. Is there any crying? They all begin to cry.

My heart does go out to the few women, that genuinely wanted to be Brett Michaels main squeeze. As much as Brett proclaims his ambition, is to find that special “Rock of Love” girl for him; he is not even close to wanting to settle into this.

The real irony is: Brett Michaels wants a “dream” woman, that is in his head. It’s a total fantasy. The girls want the Brett Michaels that sings those songs that go to their hearts. That is such an illusion. Brett writes songs from his head, not his heart.

Brett will never really get what he wants. The sad truth is, he doesn’t really want what he says he does. Michaels needs a women that is stronger then he is. He’s just this rock and roll kid that knows he is growing older and doesn’t know how to back up; because he can’t.

Michaels used to have a real rock career. Now it’s only fueled by these Rock of Love shows that Vh1 cranks out. That is why his fan base has grown so wide. Creativity and talent take a back seat to his physical presence, on stage. It’s just moves. Brett needs a muse, in the worse way. If Brett wants to keep on, keeping on; he’ll need to keep kicking out more Vh1 shows.

Brett Michaels might want to find his way back home again. God only knows, that rose of his has been biting him in the ass for too long now. A good song, but Brett might have more inspiration still in him to write a few more and really touch some folks. We won’t see this, unless this hard rocker, hero from “days gone-by” can lose his selfish ego and find his inspiration again. So, will anyone really win the Rock of Love Bus, in the end?
