Saw them at Brighton last week Russell is great front man. It took me back to my teens cheers to all who were there great night. I`m goining to aldershot at the end of the month to see them..... top group. I recently saw sterophonics at the o2 crowd was dead no atmosphere I could of put a cd on and watched a dvd. COME ON THE JAM
If you don't like Russell or From The Jam.. fuck off!
Don't understand why people waste their time in slating videos they clearly don't like. I fucking hate Robbie Williams, which is why I'd never go on a video of him and slag him off on youtube. Get a fucking life.
@walshy2866 Ditto could not put it better. see them every time they play Newcastle and its like and school get together . look forward to seeing them next december .........
Rick & Bruce you should never ever have allowed former fans to be in the band. It totally destroys the mystic and relegates the music to pub rock. Ditch Russell and Kevin, they are pub rockers pure and simple with zero charisma.Bring someone in who is a proven musician in his own right -How about Paul Weller?
If you liked the Jam, you liked the whole band and this is two thirds of it and as good as it gets when the lead singer is too precious to give his fans what they want. This sounds great!
god your funny, you slag off Weller writing some of his best music,since The Jam Stanley rd, 22 Dreams etc, & Foxton is playing Paul"s songs from 30yrs ago. lol Weller has grown & moved on. Foxton is still in 1982!
i think this is great. Id love to see these guys. Although i dont fit the image of the typical jam fan so i might get trampled on or possibily beatenup. Great vocals and the nearest thing you can get to the Jam. Awesome
Nothing wrong with this, This might be the nearest some people might get to seeing a Jam gig, So weller isnt there to play - So what? They sound okay and good on them for doing it. I think Wellers fantastic, got all his albums and if he cant be arsed to have a gig with his old mates - thats his decision!
I was here tat night and many many more.. met weller shortly after this gig and he said this was cabaret.. there are few things I'd disagree with him on (maybe red wedge!) but this was great, me my big bro and bruce and rick fucking brilliant
Saw them in the Point in Cardiff, it is just Kareoke (probably spellt wrong). Weller should put an injunction on these. They do a good job but it's not right, hated the gig and when you've seen The Jam live you realise it's not right.
I saw the jam 8 times, best band ever. you cant knock bruce and rick for trying to earn a living, wellers sorted for life. saw from the jam in leicester, it was a top night. kareoke my arse.
Fair point and your entitled to your opinion and your right that they got to make a living, but that doesn't change the fact that they are not the Jam without Weller money or not. I can't argue they are tight and do a good job, but so do numerous tribute bands, my opinion is it's not a patch, because the energy and passion came from a threesome and let's be honest about the essential ingredient is missing. All the best.
the fact is they are not the jam, they are called from the jam, take it for what it is. i was so chuffed just to see bruce and rick again, it made me feel 14 again. awsome gig. anyway my friend buy the delays albums, great band, need more support. all the best dave.
Saw them on Friday Night in Sydney, Australia. Absolutely AWESOME !!! The crowd went wild for the entire 90 minutes... I'm a Jam fan from the early 80's and I was expecting to be disappointed, let me say they blew our socks off ! Bruce Foxton was legendary on the bass, Rick was brilliant on the drums and Russell Hastings was nothing short of amazing ! Well done guys.... If ever I was going to pick a replacement for Weller, Hastings would be it.
I just saw them on 02-11-08 at the Birchmere in Alex, Va. They fuckin rocked. Russel Hastings is as good or better then Weller at these songs. I will never forget that show. Bruce was absolutely amazing along with Rick's drumming. Now all I need is some sta-prest trousers, a parka and vespa scooter and my life will be complete!
Just saw them in NYC at Blender. They were absolutely awesome. You don't even miss Weller because the new lead singer sounds just like him and gives them youthful enthusiasm. Hugh Cornwell opened for them. You can't do better than that!!
Haha - I've just seen my mate Quiethouse on this vid. What a great night and to be honest I preferred it even more to the Corn Exchange in December 07 - although that was another top night - as was London, Tunbridge Wells, Oxford, Guildford, Reading, Southampton, Brighton.... Never been a bad FTJ gig!
Went to the Leicester gig on 1st Dec. Almost 25 years since I saw them play their penultimate gig at Wembley, Awesome stuff. We are the Mods, We are the Mods..................!!!!!
Tuesday Night in Carling Academy Liverpool was awesome.People who say The Jam are not the same without Weller try telling that to the sellout crowd.Hastings was superb.
If you aint seen them yet,get some tickets and go you wont be dissapointed.
What`s wrong with you people, it`s just fucking sad to see these to once great men pissing around with some cunt from "stars in thier eyes" It`s not for me thanks, makes ya feel dirty dont it. ps... didn`t pube go off to restore furniture,Wankers!!!!
couldn;t make it to the gigs this time round so this is a real treat no bullshit no hype just maximum muscle music with or without weller this is still the jam at their best ive seen the jam on several of the tours in the 70;s and early 80;s and towards the end weller wasn;t at his brilliant best so russell can be proud of his performances with bruce and rick powering away they haven;t lost any of their magic
I saw the gig in Dublin and it was the best gig I've EVER been at. I had seen Weller before and really loved it and I've seen some great bands over the years, inc The Who, but I put The Who gig as a close 2nd. Russell does the songs they way they are meant to be done. And our very own Dave Moore adds keys and some solos that didn't always get a chance to be heard live. I'd love to see Weller gig with these guys again, but if he doesn't, s be it, I'll go see them as they are anytime!
Brilliant gig loved it going to see them again in November in Dublin ! Fuck weller great mucician great song writer but his head is up his hole at the best of times !
Saw them on Fri 1/6 in Dublin.Absolutely brilliant,jumped around like a lunatic for the whole nite.Every song sounded as fresh as ever and every one a classic. Well worth the 25 year wait..
Saw the boys at The High Rocks in Tunbridge Wells on the 24th May. It what a great gig - even from outside. I watched with my kids from a window above the band's heads. My kids are under ten and love the Jam, but too young to go to a gig like this so we watched from there. Ended up having a quick conversation with Rick Buckler when they came out for a rest before the encore. What a great night!
There should be two Ricks in the band - anyone know why Bruce has ditched his Rickenbacker for a Fender?? Saw them twice in the early eighties - alot of people been waiting for this reunion - sound as tight and energetic as ever! OK Paul was a genius - but at least there's a bit more room on stage without his ego!
Bruce preferred Fender basses. I don't think he recorded much with the Rick. The Rick looks much cooler, but the Fender is much "bass-ier" while the Rick has too much treble for Bruce's taste.
As for Paul, I love Paul the musician, but Paul the Human is a real jerk.
If anything, I think the fact Rickenbacker basses weigh as much as boat anchors was the reason Bruce made the switch. Damn fine basses though. I love mine! :)
The Aldershot show was even better I recommend all Jam fans to catch them live if you can.

@DANNYM35 . My sentiments exactly. Russell Hastings is an excellent singer and a far far down to earth lad than Weller was .
Its about us 40-odd year olds hanging on to our youth and meeting up with old mates to watch them and whats wrong with that?
Saw em 2 weeks ago with 2 lads I went to school with, had a few pints , a catch up and we'll do it again in December.
If people don't like it, fair enough but why waste time slagging it. Thought they'd be taliking to cyber-friends on facebook!
