The JD Set in Glasgow

The JD Set in Glasgow

You might remember earlier this month MusicRadar offered you the chance to win a Jack Daniel’s-branded Fender Stratocaster and four tickets to the final JD Set of 2010: a reworking of Madonna’s finest musical moments by five hot new bands at the O2 ABC Glasgow? Well, the axe has been won, the tickets given away and the gig done and dusted…

Last week, Malcolm Middleton, Silver Columns, Anita 'Cocknbullkid' Blay, James Yuill and Norway’s answer to Hot Chip, Casiokids delivered some of the Queen Of Pop’s greatest hits armed with synths, guitars and whole lot of imagination.

For those that couldn't make it, scroll through the gallery for a taste of what you missed and a look at the gear used. And check out the links below the next and last slide for video clips of two of the night’s biggest highlights.

First up: James Yuill’s drum ‘n’ bass take on Frozen. Yes, really…
