Favorite Jam Moments Here and How Tour: Leg 1

Episode 16

Tuesday, March 18, 2025 • Duration 01:11:36

Justin Bruce reviews his favorite 31 jamming moments from 2025's Here and How Tour: Leg 1, which comprised 17 shows across 10 states in February and early March.

Nearly half of this 72 minute episode is Eggy improvisation; think of it as a sonic "Watercolor Days" painting of where the band is at at this point in time. As always, special thanks to the band for their permission to use SBD recordings on this podcast.

2025's Here and How Tour: Leg 2 continues from March through April in the Northeast and Southeast; check Eggy's tour dates and don't miss out if they're playing near you!

Here's a Nugs playlist of the 29 tunes that birthed the 31 Type II highlights in this episode.

The 2025 Jam Chart on TheCarton.net documents Eggy's best improvisation.

Justin Bruce welcomes Scottie King and Ryan Storm to talk about a stretch of hot Spring 2024 Eggy shows: May 8 in Toronto, May 9 in Buffalo, and May 10 in Cleveland. Justin then dives into the May 4 show in Fairfield, Connecticut. Thanks to Eggy for allowing me to use SBD clips in the podcast, and to taper and friend of the pod Al W. for the AUD from 5-4-24 as well as his technical expertise.

Jams discussed (in the order mentioned): 5-8 Sweat Equity > The Windup > Sweat Equity > Chest Fever, 5-8 Smile AKA Toronto Jam, 5-9 Today and Tomorrow > Skin It Back > Today and Tomorrow, 5-10 Mr. Blue Sky, 5-10 Portable Air Scrubber, 5-10 Boom or Bust, 5-4 Northern Lights, 5-4 You, 5-4 Atomic Age. While discussing the drums and Chase Bliss Mood pedal with Scottie, I use a clip from the 10-19-23 Skin It Back in Cleveland.

Ryan's Storm Sound Rig Rundowns are worth your time! The new Mike Goodman bass rig video, the new Jake Brownstein guitar rig video (thanks for the Vice or Virtue shout out, Jake!) and the Dani Battat keyboard rig video from summer 2023 are all great. Ryan also wrote insightful reviews of the 5-8-2023 Toronto show and the 5-9-2023 Buffalo show.
