The Jam
On 2nd May 2007 two thirds of the original line-up of The Jam will make history when they reform for their first official UK tour in 25 years. Bruce Foxton and Rick Buckler's 20-date UK tour will be the first live shows since the original Jam disbanded after they performed what was to be their final concert (Brighton, England, December 1982).

just goes to show how important a small fraction can be, no Weller, at least he has realised he's not 19 anymore.
PS I saw them in 1979

Pretty pointless without Weller one would feel
sticky one really...
would be sweet to see them play together again!
Only 2 of them and all those tour dates they could be spreading themsleves a bit thin?

I was there for their last show in Brighton - missed the last train home! Had planned to see them again earlier this year - the 'new' Jam was only with one band member but it split up a week before they were due to play in Glouceser :-( and this new line-up - now with 2 X members doens't seem to be coming to Glos.

Is it like the Cure without Robert Smith, U2 without Bono, REM without Michael Stipe, Blur without Damon Albarn, Oasis without the brothers, Pulp without Jarvis Cocker and so on....
I suspect they're all short on cash.

On a lighter note, I saw The Jamm tribute act a couple of weeks ago in Lyme Regis. Plenty of 30 something mods in the crowd. They did o.k.
