I know this could go on student board but I'm not really a student so oh well... would just anything from a rock opera be appropriate? Next to Normal, Last 5 Years, Rent?

You have the right idea, but all of those musicals are on the audition no-no list. You can also sing an actual rock song, which would probably be your best bet.

Singing non-musical material in an audition usually turns heads in a good way.
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert

I agree with those above. Use an actual rock song rather than something from a musical.

when I auditioned for Tommy I sang "Going Down" from Hair... I got in but in hindsight I would probably choose a rock song instead... Something really surprising... And I would avoid the tunes covered in Rock of Ages... they tend to come off as cheesy bar songs or bad karaoke in audition settings
It's the music and I'm its hapless victim

Wouldn't be best to sing something by the Who but not from Tommy?
