If you're a member of the mailing list at the official Jamiroquai web site,
you should have received an email recently with news that Jay recently passed his
motorcycle test. To mark the event he was today (Sunday) presented with his very own Rizla Suzuki GSX-R600
bike at the British Superbike Championships event at Brands Hatch (UK). Jay arrived late
to the presentation, which I've been told was because he had to be escorted by the Rizla Suzuki
team to the presentation area - but once inside and after a beer he seemed happy. Jay also
presented trophies to the winners of race 5 and 6 and the riders showed their appreciation by
covering Jay in Champagne but he got his own back once he found a bottle. Jay was also interviewed
live on Sky Sports television channel (UK), and I've put a video of this interview, together
with some photos that were taken by James Carter onto the downloads
page of the site.
If you have any news you wish to submit for this site, please email me.

Jamiroquai failed to win in either of their two nominations (Best Jungle Act and Best Music Video) in the Music Of Black Origin (MOBO) awards today in 1996. You Give Me Something was released in the UK this week in 2001.
