Tony Vincent on the Voice...

I thought he sounded horrible. Kinda surprised.

I thought he sounded horrible too! Same for the gospel guy who just "sang" Marvin Gaye- very disappointing!

And he needs to eat a sandwich.

He can sound so much better than he did on The Voice. And yeah, he's so skinny he actually looks ill. I hope he's not. I used to think he was so cute back in his old Christian music days. haha

For many B'way actors who have bands, or want solo careers as rockers they discover that their bread and butter...how they make decent money for themselves and their families......... is, when shows are available, broadway.

They might cut an album (often produced by themselves) at some point that some musical theater fans might buy, have a song on itunes maybe,but as is often the case, the cd's sit in a box in their basement and they continue to play occasional gigs on the college circuit or downtown.

Not saying their bands are bad or anything like that, or that their original music is bad, some is great. Adam Pascal comes to mind. But the idea of a somewhat established Broadway/West End person breaking away and becoming a money making rocker I believe is rare. In fact, I cannot think of anyone.

Perhaps once musical theater guy Adam Lambert is an example of someone who is doing ok, and Matt Morrison has a pretty good solo career rising (though that was largely due to his exposure on Glee). Other than that not sure.

T. Vincent saying he wants to be a rocker or anything like that is fine. Nobody minds that he says stuff like that, he certainly doesn't burn any bridges with anyone in the business for that. It's his dream, he should go for it.

But, I would not expect him to be known outside of B'way anytime too soon even after his time on The Voice.

And, yeah, he had a bit of an off night. Only one person turned in their chair. Not the best sign.

I was happy to see him on there and to see how happy he and his wife are, but... I agree with those who have said he can sound better than he did last night

I was very surprised as well, I really thought he would sound better. I'll be interested to see what happens with him this season. And seriously he needs to eat a burger.
