Dot Dot Dot Peforming Rod Stewart's Young Turks on Episode 7 of the Next Great American Band

The three dots made it through last night singing Rod Stewart's Young Turks. Johnny of course liked it (he likes almost anything), Sheila E. was booed for her critique and Dicko hit it on the head with this band. They're still a lot of fluff and not enough substance in my opinion. Enjoy!

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!

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!

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!

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.

Northmont Promotional Video - Next Great American Band Episode One

Northmont didn't make it through to the final 12, but the judges gave them a second chance. I actually thought they sounded really good. The lead singer looks like a cross between Vin Diesel and Henry Rollins and the band sounds like Matchbox 20.

All that being said, they have the right formula to produce top 40 music, which is what the competition is ultimately about: Finding a pop band that can sell cd's to the masses, i.e. top 40 music. Oh well, maybe the publicity from the show will help these guys and encourage them not to give up. Here's a promo video of them I found on Youtube. Enjoy!

Rocket Performance on Episode One of Next Great American Band

The girls of Rocket made it through to the Final 12, but they're definitely going to have to do a lot more during their next performance if they want to move on. Enjoy!

Tres Bien Performance on Episode One of Next Great American Band

Tres Bien is another one of the bands who have a great chance at winning the competition. They're a solid band all around. Johnny seemed to really like them, and Sheila E. was air drumming away, so that's always a good sign that you're going to make it through. Enjoy!

Zombie Bazooka Patrol's Performance on Episode One

The Zombie Bazooka Patrol didn't sound anything like they looked, but they actually sounded pretty good for a bluegrass/pop band. I can see these guys losing the makeup in the future and actually becoming a pretty successful band. Enjoy!

The Likes of You - When I Fall From Grace

The Likes of You are a very talented band. They made it through to the Final 12 participants. Here is their video for their single, When I Fall From Grace. The lead singer reminds me of a cross between Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins) and Billy Zane (Actor in Dead Calm, Titantic, etc.). This band could be a sleeper to win the whole thing. Enjoy!

Dot Dot Dot Performance on Episode One

These guys and girls were really good. They've got a good shot at winning because they have a great pop sound. They're definitely top 40 radio material, which is inevitably the type of band that will probably win the competition. Enjoy!

The Hatch Performance on Episode One

The Hatch sounded great, and Sheila E. loved the lead singer's eyes. You can't go wrong when you have one of the judges mesmerized by your eyes. Enjoy!
