The Next Great American Band is...
...The Clark Brothers!!
Exactly who I hoped would win. The male country/bluegrass trio seem genuine. Now let's see how the "American Idol" management/record company decides to market them. Shouldn't be too hard with a hunk of a lead singer who will make all the gals swoon.
As for the Fox-TV finale: so-so, with previous bands all jamming on different songs, including an Xmas medley. Too bad it wasn't live like "Idol" is. The special music guests were the horrid LIkes of You, who got kicked off early and...the judges.
Sheila E. did a weird version of her hit "Glamorous Life" and John Rzeznik & the Goo Goo Dolls, an ok "Broadway" (one of my all-time faves from them).
