Some big rock shows are about to smash-down your TV screen.

Christ's Hospital Will turn from proper to rocker in Gene Simmons' (KISS) show, ROCK SCHOOL. Gene Simmons willl have the task of teaching 13 year-olds how to rock. These students have been around classical music all their life, and when the space-aged blood-spitting bass-pounding demon tries to turn them into a band, nothing but hell can break loose. This show time is at August 19 at 11/10c on VH1.

Tommy Lee, Motley Crue's drummer, finally finds time for college. In Tommy Lee Goes To College, the hard-hitting drummer enrolls at The University of Nebraska at Lincoln and struggles just like any other (famous rock star) student to balance academics with extra-curricular pursuits, his new roommate Matt and a distractingly attractive tutor named Natalie. Tommy Lee Goes To college premieres at NBC on Tuesday, August 16. Check local listing for time.
