September, 2005

I think today's performance has been my best yet. My arrangement of "Paint It Black" went down a treat and playing with Dave Navarro was a total honor. He is an amazing guitarist. And to play on an arrangement of mine with me on stage is an experience I will never forgot. "Kiss From A Rose" was possibly my most polished performance in this competition. I enjoyed every second I was on stage because I did not freak myself out with nerves. It was my main goal this week to not stress out and so for that I am very satisfied with myself. People have asked me why I wear military jackets on stage and my answer is this - I think they look great and that just for the fact I am wearing them while on stage instead of on the battlefield is my little statement of make love not war. I dedicated "Kiss From A Rose" to all of us because we all need a little ray of bright & hope in these dark times. We need angels right now. We need hope for without hope we having nothing.

The travelling tent did a tour of North Queensland, Australia, and I live in Mackay. We get to see your amazing body all the time now, but I would like to see you in those little running shorts again!! MAY INXS BE ALWAYS AND FOREVER AUSSIE!! GO TEAM MIG! Love Justine Sept. 20

	Au_stralis wrote: I'm an Aussie, INXS is Aussie, and MIG is an Aussie... I Vote to keep the band INXS pure Australian. (that is after all why everyone likes it, That aussie style brings something different to the international stage.) While Marty is my second choice of the final three. He seems too quiet for a rocker. I don't care if he cries during a touchy song, he just doesn't inspire any energy, his songs just don't do it. as for JD... well he should have been gone long ago. He has more rock energy than Marty, but cannot hit any high note- which is why I did not like Suzie making it as far as she did. (her voice while "amazing" as it has been described, was way too flat" Simply- I would be bored watching Marty in an INXS concert. Un-impressed with JD heading an INXS concert. But with MIG!!! I would be completely entertained and energyzed watching MIG head an INXS concert. Good luck MIG, us Aussie's are voteing for you. "KEEP INXS PURE!!!" "KEEP INXS AUSTRALIAN" Sept. 19

	Hedy wrote: Hi MiG! I just wanted to add my well wishes. You have been my favorite since day one and I thank you for sparking the "school girl" in me again! You and this show have reminded me of how exciting rock used to be back in the day (I'm in my 30s too) when there were so many great acts from Australia, England, etc in the heydays of 80s rock! It was a time of rock making us all feel good (or just FEEL period!) when we listened to that! You are that kind of singer! Your raw emotions really come through, unlike any other of the competitors, whether you sing a ballad (esp. Baby I love Our Way-sigh!) or a rock anthem. I really appreciate how you have conducted yourself throughout the show- showing integrity, honesty, compassion, and professionalism. I wish you ALL THE BEST tommorrow night. I hope you dream comes true-I'll be buying your album regardless, as I truly believe that INXS would be LUCKY to get YOU! I know you'll do great with or without them! Keep being true to yourself-there is going to be great things in store for you. Nice guys DO NOT always finish last! Sept. 19

	proud0331mom wrote: So it touched a nerve... As I said in my closing - Reality check... this is all about performing. Mig has a tremendous amount of talent, what he wears and does on stage is based on the prime motive of giving the best most audience involved/pleasing performance he is capable of. And whether you consider that aspect "dead" or not no matter. A post previous to mine was all emotional reaction and hurt and lashing out - So I wanted to bring light to understanding the hurt and the reality of no one being malicious or intending any sort of insult.

	kirin wrote: An old woman of almost 58 who still swoons when MiG takes to the stage! His presence, his vocals, his movements, and his expressions, not to mention when he is encouraged to go bare-chested all make me remember what it feels like to rock and roll! Sept. 16

	Lola wrote: Proof that MiG is NOT gay: He is 35, has a wife, and THREE CHILDREN. Not just a girlfriend, people. A wife. I don't know if you missed the episode when he was totally ALL OVER her, that's ok for you. And three children. Yeah... even if he is considerate and caring and nice, it doesn't mean that he is gay. He is not the one with the long hair or the one who kissed Dave Navarro and kissed Ty. And kisses everybody. (JD creeps me out) Yeah so MiG is definitely straight. And delicious if you ask me!

	Lola wrote: GOSH YOU GUYS DON'T POST ON MiG BOARDS IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY ABOUT MiG!!!!!!!!!! Anyways, MiG you sing INXS songs the best! I have a friend whose parents know the big brother of Marty... (hehe) but I still love you MiG. You are the best singer, the most delicious, and have the best stage presence, plus you are the nicest one! muah Lola Sept. 16
