Don Jamieson Brings the Laughs and Riffs to JBJ’s Nashville with Punchlines & Backlines, April 13, 2025
Get ready to crank the volume on your laughter and your air guitar skills, because Don Jamieson is rolling into Nashville with a comedy-metal mashup that’ll leave you in stitches and screaming for an encore! The legendary comedian, That Metal Show co-host, and all-around rock ‘n’ roll maniac is headlining the Punchlines & Backlines at JBJ’s Nashville on April 13, 2025. And trust us this will not be your average night out.
If you’ve never experienced Punchlines & Backlines, you’re in for a treat. It’s the kind of gig where comedians sling killer one-liners and rock stars trade their guitars for punchlines—before jamming out to close the night. Don Jamieson, who has been cracking up metalheads for years with his razor-sharp wit and love for all things loud, will be joined by a posse of hilarious pals and surprise rockers. Word on the street is that a certain musician might just step up to the mic for their first-ever stand-up set. Spoiler: it will either be comedy gold or a glorious trainwreck, either way, you will not want to miss it!
For those who do not know, Don Jamieson is not just a funny guy, he is a metalhead’s comedian. From his days on VH1 Classic’s That Metal Show to his stand-up specials like Live & Hilarious (which tore up the comedy charts), Don’s got a knack for blending humor with headbanging. He has shared stages with legends like Andrew Dice Clay and Metallica, nabbed an Emmy for his work on HBO’s Inside the NFL, and even hosts his own rock-comedy podcast, That Jamieson Show along with the sports meets music podcast, Rockstrap. If there is anyone who can get a room full of rockers to laugh their leather pants off, it is this guy.
Expect Don to roast everything from the Nashville scene to the wildest rock ‘n’ roll clichés and maybe even toss in a few jabs at the crowd. And since it is at JBJ’s Nashville, Jon Bon Jovi’s swanky new spot on Broadway, you can bet the vibe will be electric.
Speaking of JBJ’s Nashville, this five-story bar and restaurant is basically a rock fan’s paradise. With live music pumping through its veins and a rooftop that screams “Let’s party,” it is the ideal place for the Punchlines and Backlines show and fans are in for a definite thrill. Plus, you never know who might show up. After all, JBJ’s has already seen surprise sets from Bon Jovi himself, so who knows what April 13 has in store?
With Don Jamieson leading the charge, you will want to snag your spot ASAP. The Punchlines & Backlines show kicks off at JBJ’s Nashville on April 13, 2025. Doors open at 6:15, so come early to eat (I suggest the wings and churro fries), drink, and laugh your face off!
So, dust off your best band tee and get ready for a night of comedy and riffs that will remind you why rock ‘n’ roll and a good laugh go together like whiskey and a jukebox. Don Jamieson’s bringing the heat to Nashville and you do not want to miss out! ~ Missy
