MMJ on Jools Holland tonight (Tues 1st)

jackethead · Nov 01, 2011, 08:23 AM

Not sure if this constitutes a show, but MMJ are guests on Jools Holland's later TV show in the UK tonight on BBC2, and repeated on Friday in a longer version (which usually means 2 songs per act) I'd predict Victory Dance and Black Metal or Wonderful.

It's been a long time coming but finally the boys are over here when the show is on air.

I assume it'll be on BBC iplayer and YouTube in due course ...

the band posted a soundcheck pic to facebook. Looks like Black Metal!

Oh I do hope that it ends up somewhere online where you can watch it from outside of the UK. :D Silly BBC iplayer always telling me I live in the wrong area, damn it! ;)

I think this is the only way the song should be played live from now on out!

my bet is First Light, because they said on the BBC radio interview that they were releasing that as their single over there.

A few of us have been saying that from the start of this tour. Some horns joining them for a couple of tunes would be great too. 8)

Palladia is airing this these days. Fantastic performance of Black Metal. The back up singers help make it better too.

I saw an episode when that was on American TV, might have even been the 80's, it was so long ago, that was unlike anything I have ever seen. Jools, the epitome of the british caricature, had an old black delta blues guy on the show. He was even more of an iconic caricature of an old black southern man. Every time Jools spoke the old guy would crack up and comment about how funny he sounded. He was teasing him about his "British affect" and could not stop laughing. Jools was visibly disturbed.
