The Jam to reform without WellerBassist Bruce Foxton and drummer Rick Buckler have not toured together in 25 years but will play a 20-date tour starting in May.
Paul Weller (founder, original lead singer and primary songwriter) has been invited to join the tour but has not yet commented. However, in a Nov. 2005 interview, Weller did say a Jam reunion would “never happen,” as it’d be based completely on nostalgia and would be a “sad cabaret act.”
Rick Buckler pleaded: "Paul Weller has a fantastic solo career and is one of the UK's most talented songwriters. Paul is always welcome to join us for the reunion." Buckler is overjoyed at the prospects of reuniting with Foxton and, in preparation has been playing for the last few years with a Jam tribute band called The Gift. An album is planned for an autumn release.
