They are keeping Storm to have more than one woman in the competition at this point, which is fair enough, but if I were one of the performers I'd be confused. And Ryan had some good reason to be pissed. I rather enjoyed his snotty parting comments.
Well, I haven't seen all of the shows, since I am relying on the internet, but it seems like they have been asking for "memorable" performances and artistic "growth". Ryan kept changing his style in a way that seemed like flailing in desperation, but they called that growth. I disliked his voice on most of his songs.
Storm is still around because she is talented, and funny, and she has fans.
There are many double standards on the show, for instance, why didn't Gilby knock Dilana for swinging her leg over the shoulder of, and mounting the head of, the guitar player? Dilby ripped into Jill for grinding on him, but he ignored Dilana's move.

...and another thing The fashion on the show is bugging me. Dilana looks like she belongs in that band Dead Or ALive, or Hayze Fantayze, Storm's outfits have been mostly ugly. Does Toby need his chain wallet on stage? Lukas is too cluttered, and Magni is undecorated.

Did you see him practically knock Storm on the floor when she went over to their area to play with them and stretched out across the three of them? The dude has problems with women getting physically close to him. How are they going to front his band?

I *did* see that. What's his deal? I can understand why he moved away from Jill in the grinding performance (maybe hard to paly guitar while being bumped) but I thought it was sort of awful for him to comment on it, even constructively. The Storm shove made me think he has some psych problem, though. Is it just women? Well, I guess no dude has tried to jump in his lap...on the show, I mean

I agree with you about Ryan, but the band had said he showed the most growth of anyone. Then they said that Storm keeps bringing nothing new. Then they sent Ryan home. I've just had trouble understanding their decision making process from pretty much day one.
