“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Macabre Monster Melodies (2023)”!

Hi, everyone!

This is Jammin’ with Jamie Halloween jam session Number 3 of 6! … Because of course it’s six!

Now that we have our supernatural pals, our science fiction friends, and our slasher lads and lasses… there are a bunch of buddies that go bump in the night that you just can’t fit into any of those categories… or that cross over into a lot of those categories! So, instead of trying to twist and cram them into one category or chopping them up into tiny bits to sprinkle them into a bunch of different categories, we’ll give them a wide open range to run and fly around in with a monstrous category all their own! So, we’re jammin’ to a mix of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Macabre Monster Melodies (2022)”!

Hi, everyone!

With all our jammin’ to the supernatural, sci-fi, and slashers, there’s one last ghoulish group that may feel left out.

Some are supernatural, some are sci-fi, and some may even be slashers, but they all have one in common: they’re all not quite mortal humans… or, at least, not as most of us know mortal humans to be.

So grab your garlic, silver, crosses, salt, and anything else you can scrounge up, because we’re about to open the crypt for a mix of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Halfway to Halloween Harmonies (2022)”!

Hi, everyone!

I have so many monstrous melodies that last year, I filled six weeks of Jammin’ with Jamie with songs celebrating the spooky season… and I still had some left over that never made it to air!

With all these beats that go bump in the night bubbling for that long, they’re going to boil over this week as we jam to a host of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Macabre Monster Melodies (2021)”!

Hi, everyone!

Our jam session of spooky sci-fi songs that was originally scheduled to air October 9 ended up playing last Saturday, October 16, at 6 am ET/5 am CT, just before our regularly-scheduled jam session. If you’d like the recording of that jam session (or any other jam session), let me know!

This week, grab your stakes, silver, crucifixes, and any other protection you can think of, because we’re walking through the woods and heading down into the crypt for a mash-up of…

Hi, everyone!

Halloween may be over, but here on Jammin’ with Jamie, we’ve got a killer “Halloween hangover,” and can’t quite the spooky season cold turkey. Turkey will be coming in a few weeks, anyway.

For now, let us nurse our hangover with a mix of…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Halfway to Halloween (2017)”!

Due to technical issues, this Jammin’ with Jamie will happen Saturday, May 6!

Hi, everyone!

It’s time for another annual Jammin’ with Jamie tradition… that started last year.

But it was a ton of freaky fun, so we’re doing it again!

You’ve heard of Christmas in July, now get ready for an early celebration of another holiday!

Six months from now, we’ll be having a ghoulishly good time celebrating, so let’s start now with a haunted house of harmonies reminding us that we’re…

Clear away those cobwebs to reveal…

“Jammin’ with Jamie” Theme: “Monster Melodies (Halloween 2016: Part 5)”!

Hi, everyone!

This is my one-hundredth blog entry! Woo-hoo!

As I have made clear in so many previous posts here (and on other sites), I’m a big fan of horror (and horror comedy). I have a special place in my heart for monster movies. Monster movie fans often dub ourselves, “Monster Kids.”

This week on Jammin’ with Jamie, we’re unleashing our inner Monster Kids––– or maybe, for some of you Jammers, discovering them––– with one of my personal favorite of our Halloween jam session themes…

“Listen to them… the songs of the night…”
