The Next Great American Band

Post by Tambourine Man »

If you wanna hear some hack bands trying to cover Dylan, turn on Fox right now. My girlfriend is into these horrible shows and called me at work to let me know it was Dylan night. So I ventured to the break lounge to see this trainwreck...

Do they have a acerbic British judge? That seems to be mandatory.

And it must be a female thing. My wife likes all of them. American Idol, Dancing With The Stars, etc etc. Just shoot me.

Oh, they've got a snarky Brit for the show. It is mandatory.

And she watches all the shows you mention, along with The Biggest Loser, So You Think You Can Dance, Survivor, etc...Thankfully, I work evenings and am not big on TV to begin with.

I'm sorry. If you don't already have one, avoid a DVR. I'll come home at night and she'll be watching a recorded awful show because another awful show was on at the same time.

There is a band called Light of Doom which is five 12-year-olds and what appears to be an 8-year-old dressed like a bunch of metalhead stoners. They are good for how young they are, but they metal'd up "All Along the Watchtower" into a certified trainwreck. Just awful stuff.

Thank God the wife is a cheesehead. With the WS over, the Packers-Broncos game is the only thing that saved me from Dancing With The Stars. :D
