This week, a few of us swaggered along to see It Might Get Loud at the GFT in Glasgow.

As a drummer, I wasn’t sure what to expect of this film about guitarists talking about guitars but it was indeed mighty fine. Jack White came across as a man intensely dedicated to music, whether that [...]

We went to see muse last night at the SECC – they were mighty!

Amazing stage set and sound. Thanks to the lads at Tangent Graphic we also managed to negotiate our way to the front of the crowd and spent the second half of the night jumping about like maniacs. Brilliant!

JamHot went a trip to see the legendary Brian Wilson last night at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall – and what a night it was.

He played all of Beach Boys classic hits flanked by an 11 piece band. There was some dodgy dancing (by us – not him). A cracking night all round.

We’re feeling pretty saucy (what a great word) at JamHot today as we’ve been appointed to work with the RSNO on their naked classics series.

This innovative series offers you the chance to experience a choice of three great evenings with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. In the first half the audience are treated to [...]

Check out the keyboard player 2:25 in to this belter of a tune…

We’re in the office building Ikea furniture and just heard that Michael Jackson had died.

Bad was probably one of the first albums I owned, and my first ever gigs was seeing him play Glasgow Green. A true music icon. A very sad day. R.I.P.

Look what arrived in the post today…

Sweet sweet ACDC tickets. Next tuesday the rock will explode!!! Watch back here next week for a full gig report… maybe not on the Wednesday tho… it may be a wise move to take the day off!
Yaldy!

A great return album by the mighty Manic Street Preachers. They’re playing the Barrowlands next Tuesday. Apparently they are going to play the whole of their new album and then come back on and play songs from the last 8 albums. It’s going to be an awesome night.

Some hefty tunes that are currently blasting out of JamHot HQ.

Doves : Kingdom of Rust

Yeah Yeah Yeahs :It’s Blitz

Easy Star All Stars : Lonely Hearts Dub Band

The Mobo Awards are coming to Scotland this year – the first time they will be held outside London. The team at EventScotland have been working long and hard to make this ambitious plan a reality and today it was announced at an action packed press conference with Lemar and JLS.

We’ve been working with EventScotland [...]
