This afternoon, Wig Wam make their debut on the British rock scene. The 2005 Eurovision Song Contest entrants for Norway are playing at the Fire Fest 3 Festival at Nottingham's Rock City. Lead singer, Glam, has been in London for the past three weeks rehearsing for his guest appearance in Chess the Musical. On Thursday night, he took time out to talk exclusively to esctoday.com and sign some prizes for our Wigwamania competition!

A lot has happened in the brief 18 months since Wig Wam and esctoday.com first crossed paths. Wig Wam have gone on to international success following their Eurovision Song Contest appearance in Kyiv. Their albums have charted across Scandinavia, Germany, East Europe and now in Japan! On a rainy autumn night in London, esctoday.com's Barry Viniker was invited down to meet Glam in a London rock bar where he was meeting and greeting some of the band's UK fans.

Lead singer, Glam, is one of the most interesting, informative and fun characters ever to talk to esctoday.com. We went down to a Rock Bar in London on Thursday night to find him in typical glam dress… a bright purple bandana, spandex black and white stripped all-in-one outfit and platform shoes.

Glam spoke to us about the band's Eurovision experience, what he really got up to in Kyiv and what happened to the band after the event. Click on the link below to read the interview and find out exactly why Glam was climbing down drainpipes in Kyiv!

Read Glam's tribute to the late great former Eurovision Song Contest participant, Jan Werner Danielson, who tragically died in Oslo earlier this year.

He talks about the band's hectic schedule, how they became friends with Lordi and the mutual respect between the two bands. Find out why Wig Wam were treated like kings when they flew home from their tour dates in Greece the day after the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest, and why there is a British tabloid photographer cursing his luck somewhere in the world!

Glam also talks about the charity work the band have done, he explains the background to the hugely successful charity single Bygone zone and why the band appeared on television to play the song without make-up, their trademark crazy outfits and their electric guitars!
