For some time now in the GetJazzical universe we’ve been meaning to get a links page up with hyper-space-links to some of our favourite clubs (only the musical variety as Olly had to be told several times), musicians and other Internet ephemera.  We’ll it’s finally here!  Yay!  So click here or on the irrelevant photo below to go there.

It's sort of symbolic, cos' there's stuff to discover OVER the bridge and... shut up!

It’s the last ten minutes of the film.  The hero has overcome adversity, heartbreak and robots to get this far and yet he lies there motionless on the floor, life ebbing away whilst the villain laughs mockingly at his crumpled body.  ”No!” You think, surely this can’t be the end?  Not now, not when our hero only just learnt an important lesson about himself that he really knew all along.  It’s just too heartbreaking. It’s NOT FAIR!

So we went to see Bad Ass Brass the other night and they were absolutely incredible. We’ve never seen so many people dancing to a brass band since the 1930′s and even then our only point of reference are old episodes of ‘Jeeves & Wooster‘.

We’ve got interviews, photos and more on the way as soon as we can figure a way of getting them off Olly’s bloody iPhone.

Also some of you may be wondering where this week’s episode is. In fact all of you must be wondering as I can’t imagine too many of you come to this blog to admire the view. Well it is coming very soon but this week Alasdair is ‘running’ this and Olly is very lazy. Soon dear readers, soon.

And now, if you will, contrast that with this photo of our ‘studio’.  Our hearts, if not our wallets, are in the right place ladies and gents and so are you.  Stay tuned, stay hungry, Get Jazzical.
