I can't see this reunion happening, to be honest. If it does I think it will be a much bigger affair. Fingers crosssed though, eh? As an aside, for all the Jam/Weller fans - what was your favourite Jam tribute band? The English Roses were excellent value for money but for me the winners were All Mod Cons. They sounded so much like the band until they spoke in broad Boston, USA accents. I saw them at the original Concorde years and years ago.

It was just plain wierd to here an American accent introducing the likes of Eton Rifles. I saw both the above, and would also rate English Rose as the better of the two.

Yep. I think the whole crowd just gave a collective 'what the ....' when they introduced themselves. I think they were all a bit, shall we say 'larger' than the English Roses too but no denying they took it seriously and gave a good account of themselves. It must have been doubly tough to play to an English audience who were very protective about the Jam. Seeing as I never got to see the real Jam, it was a pleasure to go mental to songs like Tube Station and Start and imagine that I was listening to the real thing. Are there any tribute bands still going?

I am not aware of any tribute acts that are still going Buzzer. I suspect that From the Jam have killed it for any potential tribute acts.

More chance of The Smiths reforming to be the support act for tonight I would have thought.

No he didn't show Tony
Good gig. Foxton full of energy in spite of his doctor apparently telling him not to do the gig. Russell Hastings is a great front man. A few "Seagulls" chants. Something not quite right about a room full of middle aged men chanting "We are the mods, we are, we are, we are the mods" though.

Could have done with Smithers Jones, but apart from that all good.
Foxton looks very youthful, presume he hasn't had surgery?
