Anyone else think they should allow bands on the The X Factor?

They've allowed so many crappy group through, and over-rated solo singer. But there are a lot of bands trying to get their big break but the only show that really has a place for them would be 'Britain's Got Talent', yet the only band we saw was some crappy female 3-piece band.

I think it would be brilliant to see a category for Bands, maybe in place of either the 'Boys' or Girls', and got back to have the mixed '16-24s'.

To see how the bands take on the weekly themes, and could add their own unique style to songs would be great.

Let them in with the "groups". Playing your own instruments is something not to be sneered at I guess.

Yeh, was thinking that as well. Instead of forming groups with solo rejects, let some bands audition.

Yes, but I like the seperate boys and girls, like Shaun said, with the groups yeah

They should, definetely.

They allowed the scottish duet a few years ago to play the guitar, so just allow everyone to play instruments and it's happy days!

They probably do.
Most bands wouldnt though, for the whole credibility thing.
