		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Oh! And I have to addÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦ I think this is the first time ever that the favorite IÃƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ve had from the beginning has actually won.

Me too, Sarah.  Feels good, doesn&#039;t it?  I sure wish you could have been there.  I still can&#039;t get over how &quot;intimate&quot; it was.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;It is an awesome show. I love Idol, and it is much better than Idol: better judging, hosting, format, intimacy with the bands.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I completely agree and love NGAB even more than Idol.  I don&#039;t want to see it go *sniff sniff*.  I know it&#039;s been a very enriching experience for the participating musicians - it certainly has been for me.  Ah well, good while it lasted.

Thanks Caffiend for the season spoilers and CarieB for the finale report.  </description>

		<description>Thanks for the spoiler, CarrieB!

I never saw DMHO breaking into the &quot;big-time&quot; of top-40 radio, though being on this show will probably allow them to up their gig price. So good for them; I wish them well.

Sixwire&#039;s future is a mystery. Will a record company sink the dough into giving them another shot? They may deserve it, but that doesn&#039;t mean they&#039;ll get it. I hope they do.

So happy for the Clark Brothers! I think their sound, if allowed to develop organically and not forced into preconceived concepts, could be truly unique and powerful. I&#039;m hoping whatever CD they come out with, it&#039;s not all gospel music. I liked the alt-gospel feel of their performances; I just don&#039;t see myself buying a CD completely full of churchy songs.</description>

		<description>Oh! And I have to add... I think this is the first time ever that the favorite I&#039;ve had from the beginning has actually won (I&#039;ve had a really bad record with picking winners... they usually end up in 2nd place lol). So, yay me! :)</description>

		<description>Awww yay!!!! I was hesitant to click on the break because I didn&#039;t know if I &lt;em&gt;really&lt;/em&gt; wanted to know, you know? ;) Anyway, I&#039;m so glad The Clark Brothers won... I just &lt;em&gt;love&lt;/em&gt; them, and I agree with Johnny - they were totally deserving. Sixwire was great too, but man, I love The Clark Brothers.

Thank you Carie! So glad you enjoyed the taping!!</description>

		<description>I do think age was a factor; Clark Brothers had room to grow (both musically and in experience) while Sixwire was already very professional.  I guess a larger portion of the public and executives like Dicko and Nigel prefer bands that are younger and fresher.  I disagree with Nigel though, about Sixwire&#039;s time having come and gone.  They certainly could have hits on the CURRENT country charts.

Best of luck to ALL THREE of the bands.</description>

		<description>I was pulling for six Wire myself so am a bit disappointed  Personally, I am not so sure age was as much of a factor is that when with a label, the label didn&#039;t quite know under what category to promote them.  Their first released single  sounded like country but they really aren&#039;t and they really aren&#039;t quite rock either.  I know my area never played them although some areas in the country did.  I&#039;ve never met the lead but as i said last week, i  have met Steve, john and Robb and they are some really nice guys.  I too wish them well.  I haven&#039;t decided if i&#039;ll watch the finale now or not but i may just do it to hear Six Wire.</description>

		<description>I heard DMHO on the radio yesterday! So I requested &quot;Frosty the Snowman&quot;, which someone recommended on the NGAB message board. Denver does it great!

I wish I could have attended a show, but LA is a long way from Florida. Thanks for all the recaps and spoilers. I have loved this show from the start, even more than AI and I am a freak about them! I love these judges more than RPS. They were just the right combination of praise, honesty, and really wanted the bands to succeed! Bravo Jidges! 

We got to hear and see some great bands that we probably wouldn&#039;t have gotten to know about, as well as exposure to different styles that I wouldn&#039;t have sought out on my own. 

I will probably buy songs from all of the top 5 as well as a couple of others. But my money is burning a hole in my pocket waiting for the Clarks Brother&#039;s music!</description>

		<description>JulieR.  Thanks.  I sure didn&#039;t have my light bulb screwed in all the way this morning when I posted.  I checked iTunes this afternoon and bought their 2002 CD.

I will check their website, too.  Cool!</description>

		<description>Thank you Carie for your great reporting!  It sounded like you had a ball at the show.  Plus, you got to meet Caffiend.  I appreciate both of your comments.  How aesome that the Clark Brothers won!  There is something magical about this group.  I hope the show returns and I hope AI will promote the group.</description>

		<description>Carrie - thanks for the great recap. I&#039;ll watch the finale and try to pick you out using my powers of ESP. ;-) I was rooting for Sixwire but The Clarks are awesome, too.

		<description>Hiya Dingo!!!

My post may have been clear as mud (heh) but iTunes has Sixwire&#039;s first release CD from 2002, Warner Bros.

Their newer stuff (not on the above release), some of which they&#039;ve performed on NGAB (like the rockin&#039; &quot;Good To Be Back&quot;) can be downloaded from Sixwire.com.</description>

		<description>Sixwire&#039;s original CD is available at iTunes.

Also, at Sixwire.com, you can download (99 cents each) 7 new tunes, including &quot;Good To Be Back&quot;, which they have done several times on the show. It&#039;s GREAT to have a studio version of that song to listen to now.

I know this because I investigated everything last Friday night. :-)</description>

		<description>Caffiend - great meeting you at the show as well.  Wasn&#039;t it FUN???!!!

I was so happy for the Clark Bros. win - I could just FEEL them so much, but I have to wonder how they will do with their record and with radio play.  It will be interesting to see what they put out and how it is received.

I totally agree Idol should feature them during the upcoming season and  give a shot in the arm to this great show.  

Oh and my boys were thrilled I snagged one of LOD&#039;s Santa Hats that they had autographed the inside of...Yay!  Kind of took the sting out of me not taking them because the tickets said noone under 14 allowed and then I get there and there are all kinds of kids there.  Oops.</description>

		<description>Yay for the return of Northmont!  They got screwed in the auditions, and I believe it&#039;s because they were a modern pop/rock band that would have shared fans with the Goo Goo Dolls.</description>

		<description>I really enjoyed the show also, though I admit I only began watching it because of knowing Ashley Clark from Carrie&#039;s concerts.  It was a pleasant surprise to me and I do hope they bring it back next year...I will be watching again!</description>

		<description>The name of the song the Clarks did to end the show was their original song &quot;Billy the Kid.&quot;

What a great show.  You guys must tune in for the Christmas medley alone.  It is adorable.

I feel really bad for Sixwire too.  They must feel a bit cursed, having come so close to success so many times.  

Carie, great meeting you at the taping!

Oh, and regarding whether the show will be back next year:  I asked John Rzeznik and he said, somewhat dismissively, &quot;I don&#039;t know.&quot; But Dominic did say &quot;Until next year!&quot; when he closed the show.

Whoever said the winning band should perform on Idol had it right.  Clark Bros. can perform there in May, right as their album is coming out.  Idol can highlight the Ashley/Carrie U. connection.  Then it can promote the band, the show, and the upcoming band auditions for Season 2.

I feel so privileged to have been able to see so many episodes of this show in person.  I still am stunned that it did not catch on.  It is an awesome show.  I love Idol, and it is much better than Idol:  better judging, hosting, format, intimacy with the bands.</description>

		<description>Holy cow!  I am thrilled and yet somehow surprised at the CB win....I really thought it would be Sixwire.  Of course, I am also disappointed that Ashley won&#039;t be returning as Carrie&#039;s fiddle player now.  I wonder how much it helped that CB entered the show with an established fanbase as everyone at Carrie&#039;s fan club loves him and was pulling for him. He has been amazing at Carrie&#039;s concerts and she gave him a place to shine with both fiddle and vocal solos out front.  I wonder if she regrets that now, lol.  (j/k...I know Carrie is thrilled for his success, she would never deny anyone their time in the sun).  Anyway, congrats to the Clark Brothers!

BTW, do you know why they taped this so early?  Seems like that gave them very little time to rehearse.</description>

		<description>Thank you for posting this.  I am SO happy for the Clark Brothers!  Best of luck to them (and hopefully Sixwire) post-NGAB when they produce an album!</description>
