It's so.......parrot. The first time I ever saw a shot of Michael, I thought "ughhh, POSER" but he did grow on me for some reason. Have a feeling he won't make it too far though.

Would sure hope his singing voice could get past that. His hair "style" is horrible imo and makes his nose look longer, but maybe AI can do something about the hair. I covered up his hair in that picture with my hands, and it did make an improvement. Dunno. At this point, I just can't get excited about Michael, even if he is Jasonnn's bro.

I think that they are a rock band but I don't listen to rock so I have never heard them. I saw the video of Michael with his uke. He had so much fun playing Jason's that he bought his own. LOL. I didn't know that Jason played the piano. Cool. It will be interesting to see which musical style Michael will choose.

Any guitarist could though I assume. & I think the drums....I remember reading something about Jason giving away his drumkit to him - or something? Probably got my facts wrong. Alas, he cannot play piano. Jason has him beat ;) I don't know much about Michael aside from the fact that he cagefights, has thick skin, is hilarious in a blunt, snarky way and usually quiet at first around new people. No idea what his singing style is like. Hopefully he'll make it past Hollywood. He also plays the uke, lol. Any guitarist could though I assume.

Must be a Castro requirement since he, Jason, his dad and his five uncles all sing and play the guitar. LOL. He really has been great with fans who have met him or talked with him online. That's one reason that lots of people already like him for himself, not just because he's Jason's brother. Michael plays guitar too.

Of course, he's getting publicity, but think he might have a better chance of being judged on his own, if he waited. The Castros really do strike me as such a great family, so supportive of each other, and happy to share in each other's activities. I hope -- as some have said -- that Michael's music is different enough from Jason's so he won't be compared too much to his brother. I'd like to see him flesh out his own identity. I'll be interested to see how Michael fares. I expect to see him in front of the judges on the strength of his name alone. Hope he's good enough and different enough to go the rest of the way on his own. I’m a little surprised that Michael would follow so soon after Jason.

Wonder whether he'll make it to or even past Hollywood. If according to Jase, Michael is the better singer, this will be V interesting.

I didnt start voting or really paying attention to Jason until after SOTR. So, in that way being Jasons brother is a good thing, but after that he is all on his own. Geeesh - listen to me, he might not even make it that far!

Getting in front of the judges is enough to carry the story to teevee. I think he'll have to advance based on his own merit from there. I do hope they show his audition because, as a Jason fan, I'm interested in hearing his brother sing.

So far, other than the horrendous Brittenum brothers, who auditioned together (what a waste) and Jessie and Becky O'Donohue (only Becky was on the show), those are the only siblings I recall.
