The Voice, The Day After: Battle Rounds Dish, Pt. 1

Last night, "The Voice's" Season 3 Battle Rounds began. And while this segment of "The Voice" has historically been a troubled one for the show, marking a ratings decline as more causal viewers lose interest after the Blind Auditions, today my "The Day After" co-host Matt Whitfield and I are here to tell you: The fun is just getting started for "The Voice" Season 3. Because last night's battles had it all:  great singing, drama, sound decisions from all four coaches, the exciting new "Steal" rule...and Billie Joe Armstrong, of course.

Did you enjoy the Battle Rounds as much as we did? Watch our latest "The Day After" chatfest above, and feel free to continue the discussion on the messageboard below!
