The Jam in Spain

Just saw this advert on a local gig guide, The Jam will be playing in Granada, on Saturday 10th November, minus Paul Weller!

It appears that former Jam bass player Bruce Foxton and drummer Rick Buckler have hired help from Russell Hastings and Dave Moore to recreate the sounds of the Jam.

After testing the water in the UK, the band sold out 20 dates in May in just 2 weeks. The gig in Granada will be followed by another 20+ over the next few weeks, ending at the Brighton Centre, on 21 December, coinciding with the original bands last show at that same arena some 25 years ago.

If I was in Granada I might be tempted, but really Jam without Paul Weller, what can I say?

Football and music

I have not managed to keep up to date lately. I have been helping out a good friend setting up a couple of web blogs.

My two passions in life are football and music, and the sites that i have been working on cover just those subjects. Buzzin' Football is a blog that covers stuff from the English Premier League and Spanish la Liga mainly, but anything about Football is posted. Buzzin'Music is, well its about music surprisingly, and covers anything that fits that description.

If you know anyone who is interested in contributing to either of these blogs please get in touch.

I am still following Malaga CF, and have been fortunate enough to see all of their home games. They are currently top of the BBVA liga (=championship in uk) and have won all of the games at home, but lost the last two away games. They are one point ahead of second place Numancia, who they play on Sunday at home, so given this seasons home form, it should be a another win!
