To close what has been a phenomenal exhibition on The Jam at the Cunard Building in Liverpool all summer, a charity concert has been arranged for 5th October at the Liverpool Echo Arena. Nicky Weller (frontman Paul’s sister and co-curator of the exhibition) is organising the gig – “A Celebration of The Jam” – which will feature original band members, bassist Bruce Foxton and drummer Rick Buckler, who will perform alongside The Paul Weller Band and a host of very special guests. So my question is this: They have hired an 8k capacity arena which has just about sold out in less than 24 hours with ticket prices starting at circa £50. How p1ssed off is everyone going to be if Paul Weller doesn't show up?
