Dubbed by the fans after its first appearance on the first gig of The Resistance tour in Helsinki, the jam was a reoccurring drum and bass jam on The Resistance tour. It is slightly similar to Osaka Jam and is often played before Undisclosed Desires.

During the jam, Christopher Wolstenholme stood on Dominic Howard's rising, spinning podium of the three-towered stage design.[1] For the 9th November gig at the SECC in Glasgow, Howard and Wolstenholme were joined by a kilted bagpiper, named Count Taylor, who was standing on another of the podiums, playing an additional part. A pro-shot video of the performance was released by Muse as a Christmas present, and given the title of Glasgow Jam.

The jam is notable as the Warner/Chappell Music song catalogue adopted the fan given "Helsinki Jam" as the official title.
