Things seem to be coming together now for the new FOX reality series The Next Great American Band. Confirmation has been given to reports that New Zealand's own Dominic Bowden will be the host for the show. That's just the tip of the proverbial iceberg, though. Since a host needs a panel of people to berate, date and dislike, three judges have been selected to choose the next great American band.
Playing the role of Randy Jackson will be the Goo Goo Dolls' John Rzeznik. The part of Paula Abdul will be portrayed by Prince protege Shelia E. Finally, the role of Simon Cowell will be taken by former record exec, press agent to the rock stars, and current Australian Idol judge Ian Dickson.
Get ready for snide comments, bickering, and huffy walks off the stage -- trademarks of its sister show American Idol. The Next Great American Band premieres October 19th on FOX.

The judges are boring and offer nothing to the show.I wish CBS did not cancel Rockstar, that show was interesting and much better done.
