09/21/2005 Entry: "The best formula to find a new lead singer?"

I didn't watch the "INXS Reality TV Show" so I learned that J.D. FORTUNE is now the band's new lead singer from the Rollingstone.com newsletter. Is there a better formula for replacing a deceased vocalist than a reality program? Queen's plan seemed to be to hire the best old school name available, Free/Bad Company's Paul Rodgers. What about bands trying to replace departed leaders? Ric Ocasek's new solo album and Benjamin Orr's passing has me thinking, what are the Cars going to do?
