The Likes Of You Perform Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind" on Episode Two of the Next Great American Band

The Likes Of You's lead singer, Geoff Byrd, is good. Dicko was concerned that he just threw a band together to get into the competition, which is exactly what Byrd did. However, Byrd said that they just clicked and things are great. We'll see, but for now, they're definitely a front-runner with Byrd's singing and writing talents. They did a good job on Dylan's Blowin' In The Wind, and their original was called Love and Gravity. Enjoy!

The Hatch Perform Bob Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue" on Episode Two of the Next Great American Band

The Hatch are my least favorite of the final twelve bands. I don't think they're as talented group-wise as the rest of the bands. Sure, as Dicko said on episode one, the lead singer is good looking, but looks alone won't win this competition. They did an okay job on Dylan's It's All Over Now, Baby Blue, but I didn't like their original song called Stretch Out The Time. Enjoy!

Rocket Perform Bob Dylan's "Knocking On Heaven's Door" on Episode Two of the Next Great American Band

Like The Hatch, I'm not a big fan of Rocket. I don't think the lead singer has what it takes to lead the band. They're certainly not as talented as many of the other bands in the competition. They might last a while because of female voters, but I think eventually, they'll be out of their league and will be sent packing. Here they are performing Bob Dylan's Knocking on Heaven's Door and their original song, Mean To You. Enjoy!

Tres Bien Perform Bob Dylan's Subterranean Homesick Blues on Episode Two of the Next Great American Band

I like Tres Bien. They're like a modern day Beatles. I think they have a good shot at winning, and they did a great job on Dylan's Subterranean Homesick Blues. Their original song is called Easy To Love Me. Enjoy!

Cliff Wagner and the Old #7 Perform Bob Dylan's "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright" on Episode Two of the Next Great American Band

Well, Cliff and his gang of Bluegrass Hillbillys are actually pretty talented, but I'm not sure they're going to make it too far. They'll pull in some votes, but they're not going to appeal to the masses. They were still very entertaining to me though. Their original song was called Old Fire. Enjoy!

Light Of Doom Perform All Along The Watchtower on Episode Two of the Next Great American Band

Light of Doom did a pretty good job on Bob Dylan's All Along The Watchtower, and their original song called Eye of the Storm was okay. On Episode One, I thought these kids were pretty good. But, I remember one thing that Dicko said to them that I now feel might happen to them. He basically said that once the awww... factore wore off, they're wouldn't be much substance left. After seeing them perform on Episode Two, I'm starting to agree with him.

My main concern is this: The lead singer's voice is going to change in a couple of years, and like Hanson before them, once it does, chances are, they'll be done. Maybe they'll prove me wrong, but I think as a band, they won't be together very long. As individuals, they might go farther in the future. Only time will tell...

Lastly, I agree with Dicko. These kids needs to keep their shirts on. It's more distracting than anything else. Enjoy!

Franklin Bridge Perform Bob Dylan's Tangled Up In Blue on Episode Two of the Next Great American Band

Franklin Bridge are definitely in the driver's seat right now as far as the judges are concerned. They completely redid Bob Dylan's Tangled Up In Blue and made it their own. They did a great job. Their original song, Incredible, was also really good. I think America is ready for an African American rock band. I definitely think these guys are the ones to beat. Enjoy!

Dot Dot Dot Perform Bob Dylan's Like A Rolling Stone on Episode Two of the Next Great American Band

Dot Dot Dot are good. The lead singer is a great entertainer, and they have the look and feel of today's pop/rock bands. They did a really good job on Dylan's Like a Rolling Stone. Their original song, Another Stupid Love Song, was very catchy, and I can easily see it charting on the pop charts. They're definitely one of the favorites to win the competition. Enjoy!

Sixwire Perform Bob Dylan's Mr. Tambourine Man on Episode Two of the Next Great American Band

Sixwire are definitely the most polished of all the bands in the competition. They've been around for seven years, and they've already had and lost a major record label deal, so it's basically, now or never for them. To me, all these guys need is a record label that will push their music. Country music is huge right now, so they're hitting it at the right time. We'll see...

They did a great job on the cover song, and their original, Good To Be Back, is a great song. Enjoy!

The Muggs From Next Great American Band Perform Bob Dylan's Meet Me In The Morning From Episode Two

The Muggs performed Bob Dylan's Meet Me In The Morning last night on the episode two. They also performed an original song called Slow Curve. They did a great job on both songs. Their sound reminds me a little of the Black Crowes. I really like them because they're just a trio of average joe's making great music. Enjoy.

The Clark Brothers Perform Bob Dylan's Maggie's Farm on Next Great American Band Episode Two

The Clark Brothers are a very talented trio, and if they continue their performances like last night on episode two, they've got a great chance at winning the whole thing. They did a great job on Bob Dylan's song, Maggie's Farm, and their original song called Billy The Kid was my favorite original song by any of the bands. Keep up the great work guys! Enjoy.
