American Idol fans...

[Ocean Lover]

...should watch Great American Band. It was on last night at 8pm. It was really good! The judges are Dicko ( yeah we had funn with the name) some record dude from New Zealand I think, Sheila E, who's a really good judge) and John Resnick from the Goo Goo Dolls. There are some really talented bands that made it. There's a band from Nashville that I fell in love with called The Clarke Brothers.

Shoot, we meant to watch it and missed it. A band from here with friends of Mr. Pod's made it--Dr. Zhivegas. They're in the commercial for the show. Did you see them, OL?

Of course, being the biggest AI fan here, I watched last night.
It was fun, even though my whole family was not as into it as I was.

Here are some interesting tidbits for you: the two girls in the band DOT DOT DOT, were in a band with Gina Glocksen, from AI, called Catfight. They are out of Chicago.

The Clarke Brothers - loved them btw, one of the brothers played fiddle for Carrie Underwood!

I couldn't pick a favorite last night, I liked almost all of the 12 they whittled down to. A huge variety of musical genres - even a big band, who was great too!



OL: didn't read your whole post - of course we would both like the Clarke Brothers

Ooooh...I could get into this. When and what network, please? (Sheila E is one of my feminist musician heroes, and Resnick is just plain hott. Worth the price of admission right there.)

I don't remember them but they went through some of the ones that made it pretty fast. I'll have to look for them.

We caught part of it. Enjoyed Sixwire. Did you see when that dicko guy said, 'You were hot." and the blonde singer/speaker gull thanked him and he responded, "Not you. You" , pointing to the gull next to her. As if... :roll: She just grinned and kept answering their questions. Maybe he's going to be "the bully" judge. :angry:

;-) Dot Dot Dot had some energy didn't they? Sam loves Fall Out Boy and I told her the lead singer reminded me of Pete Wentz after a few energy drinks. Love the tidbit, so glad you're watching so you can keep us up on all the latest.

Thanks for the info, OL. We have always been addicted to AI. Love Sheila E because she was associated with Prince, and he rocks!
