The Next Great American Band: Season Finale, The Clark Brothers Win

Last night, the season finale of The Next Great American Band aired. It’s hard to beleive that the season is over already. It’s been a fun ride and I hope there’s a season 2.
The show began with my favorite of the top 12 bands, The Likes of You, performing When I Fall from Grace as […]

The Next Great American Band: Pas de Très Bien

The bands were called up one by one to perform, and one band was eliminated without getting to perform. Each band had to perform a song by Rod Stewart.

First to perform was Dot Dot Dot. They came out and performed the song Young Turks. The vocals just weren’t right for the song, I felt. They […]

The Next Great American Band: First Eliminations

This week’s show had to eliminate the first two bands. The show did a very cruel thing and had them perform one by one, with the two bands left at the end being the ones to go home. They had to sit through the whole show and everyone else’s performances before they found out if […]

The Next Great American Band: First Performances

This show is so similar in its dynamics to the original American Idol. There’s the band member with technically helpful advice John Rzeznik of the Goo Goo Dolls (counterpart to Randy Jackson). There’s the female singer and performer’s ally Sheila E (counterpart to Paula Abdul). And let’s not forget the grumpy, critical foreigner, Ian “Dicko” […]

The Next Great American Band: Auditions

I watched this episode with so many bands auditioning for the top 12, that I got totally bored after a while. I’m glad they didn’t drag the auditions on for weeks, like American Idol often does, or I doubt they’d have anyone watching by the time the competition acually started.
Anyway, after seeing some real freaks […]
