Sunday Evening Jam - March 30

🎸 The Sunday Evening Jam – March 30, 2025

Hosts: jD & Sara J

Special Guest: Jeff Tucker

This week’s jam was packed with stories, laughs, music geekery, and a little sun from the Dominican Republic ☀️

Here’s what went down:

• 👕 Jeff joined us live from the Dominican, repping a Tragically Hip shirt and dropping tales from resort run-ins with fellow Hip fans (or not-so-fans?).

• 🍻 jD recapped his hazy but heartfelt night seeing From the Hip at Trinity Common, including a transcendent moment of frontman Gord-ing.

• 🎧 Jeff blew our minds again with a new audio sync discovery—this time comparing Paul Langlois’ “Can’t Wait Anymore” with The Hip’s “Use It Up.” Goosebumps guaranteed.

• 📺 We took a deep dive into The Tragically Hip’s iconic 1995 SNL appearance, reflecting on the band’s “inside the box” performance, how Gord kept it weird (but tame), and the thrill of seeing Nautical Disaster on American TV.

• 📹 jD’s “podumentary” commemorating the 30th anniversary of that SNL night has racked up thousands of views! If you haven’t seen it yet—fix that.

• 📀 Gig of the Week: That Night in Toronto (2004), a powerhouse In Between Evolution tour show captured by the Lamoureux Brothers. We shared favorite quotes, rare easter eggs (hey, “The New Maybe”!), and why it still gives us chills.

👀 Coming Up Next Week:

We’re taking the show on the road—sort of.

We’re heading to the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto to see The Strictly Hip, and we’re turning the April 6 Sunday Evening Jam into a full-on tribute band discussion!

• 🎶 Have you seen a Hip tribute band? Did you love it? Hate it? Indifferent and just wanna dance?

• 🎤 We want to hear your stories—leave us a voicemail via the link in our socials and you might make the show!

Plus: jD recently saw From the Hip, so you’ll get double the tribute insight. Maybe even a surprise guest 👀
