Possible new Big Fat Jam project?

I was looking on Facebook to see if there were a fan page for Big Fat Jam.  They did one CD for Absolute Records back in 2002 and fell off the face of the earth.  I later found they had an earlier CD they produced themselves.  I always thought the name of the band and the album were the same, but I was informed that their 1999 album was called "The Shack".

The band had posted asking if any of the fans still had any of their old stuff, so I sent a picture of me holding my two CDs that I still have after all these years.  While reading the comments, a guy said that we needed some new Big Fat Jam.  The band replied, "Coming soon".

So, I don't know if we should be getting our hopes up yet, but it seems like the camp is stirring again.

Right on! I have their 2 albums as well and would love to hear something new from them. Cool!

You probably have the same two as I do.

I only recently discovered that one of the albums that I had was named "The Shack".  On the outside, it appears that their indie album was just self-titled.  On the CD, the name of the album is "The Shack".  I never noticed that before!

That's awesome news.

I didn't know that either. Thought it was self titled

I'll take a break from the Metal Realm and report in. 

I've actually seen these guys live a few times since they were local and participated in band competitions.  They were really good live and I thought blew away the other bands.  The frontman had charisma and they really got the crowd into the show.  I never owned any albums since it's not my style.

Side note: The lead singer went to the same college as I and he was on the basketball team, whilst I was on the football team. so I knew who he was, but we did not know each other socially.  Anyway, I saw him in the weight room one time and he carrying around a Saigon Kick - The Lizard cd, so I knew he had good taste, but I didn't think he was a blues guy.  I figured him for a metal head since he had long hair.
