Joolz's Thoughts On:

THE UB40 JAMS BOARD:

"I found the website address from the GITG CD and from that day forth - EVERYDAY has been a UB day. I could not believe my eyes when I saw the correspondence, the photos, the gig timetables etc... UB40 at my fingertips - how cool, having only surfed the net three months ago for the first time - what a wonderful website to find. Believe me - I'm hooked!"

UB40

"UB40 have been a part of my life since I was sweet 16! I remember some of the old reggae/blue beat 7" records my parents would stack up on the gram and blast out on a Sunday afternoon, but I thank and depend on UB40 for reproducing these records so I can relive 'the good old days'. "

BEING A UB40 FAN:

"Ever since 'just popping along' to a UB40 gig at the Queens Hall in Leeds, I've been hooked - line & sinker. Yeah sure there are a few songs I don't like/understand, but almost every song I hear (& learn the words to) has meaning, reflects a time & a place in my life and motivates my like no other music can. Watching them perform live creates new experiences and holds lasting memories for me every single time."

MUSIC:

"Amazingly enough, I do listen to other artists, my musical tastes vary drastically and include Enya, Bob Marley, Mariah Carey, Van Morrison, Bitty McLean, Phil Collins, Adeva, Cher, Motown......really any & anything it depends what mood I'm in. Rap/Hip Hop/Garage - I try at all costs to avoid - does nothing for me."

TOP 3 SONGS:

"Wow this is difficult.....but since I have to choose I'd say "Bring Me Your Cup" "Dream A Lie" and "Impossible Love" - top 30 would have been easier!"

THE JAMS POSSE:

"Once again 'WOW' - being able to communicate with this amazing network of fans from all over the world, people of different ages & nationalities whom I share at least one common interest with, is fantastic, it's overwhelming. The stories, comments on gigs, general Band discussions and the loyalty displayed to the Band is addictive and the fact that the posse took this one step further and actually met up convinced me I had to be a part of this Family Affair!

#UBJams CHAT:

"Unfortunately, I use the Internet at work and therefore cannot CHAT with the posse as I would like, but I can imagine what fun this must be - Technology Rules!!"
