fumps Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I went to see The Jim Jones review last night. My giddy ant they were hard rocking guys. My ears are still ringing. The band were great players & brilliant showmen but the piano player was something else. Its a total shame this is going to be their last tour. A great band already gone, which is a real shame, they were a really awesome band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0WtJ3RYlTo Saw them a couple of years ago and was much impressed. Would have gone to see this tour but they didn't come to Nottingham and the rest of the time I was too busy with my own band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
discreet Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I was in a band with their drummer back in the day. He's bloody good. It is a shame they're packing it in, but the upside is the guitarist will have more time to spend on his parallel career as a promoter, so it's not all bad news.

fumps Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 Was a cracking night, although a gig is never the same when your drinking lemonade (school night & I was driving). I'm still semi deaf lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJR were on 6 Music not so long ago, and it was a real blast of fresh air. I watched that clip with a face-splitting grin and two Strummer legs, so thanks for posting it, Stu-khag.

Bassmonkey Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 I was also at that gig Izzy. There again on Friday night for 9 Below Zero. Yee har Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IzzyT2807 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 they were awesome that night, only one wrong move that night. They did this really slow number at the end that just died on its arse but other than that they were fantastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassbiscuits Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Good band - saw them a a few years back at a festival where i'd just wandered into their gig and BAM! They were frighteningly loud! Good stuff tho. Shame they're calling it a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
