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.

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

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!
