Ben welcomes back HammyT to deep dive into Pretty Lights history, community stories, and the moments that make this scene so special. As the first returning guest on Trip Thru Time, HammyT comes back with more tales, more insight, and plenty of laughs.
The two unpack major news in the PL universe—from Buena Vista being billed as the “only band event of the summer” to Derek and Uma expecting their first child—and speculate on what it all might mean for future shows, formats, and the fan experience.
HammyT shares stories that span from early meet-and-greets and setlist requests that actually came true, to riding the rail for all 3 nights of the armory in Minneapolis to end with his father-in-law buying a PL merch booth hat which Derek and Michal signed as they greeted the rail at the end of night 3.
Together, Ben and HammyT pull out some stand out stage quotes/banter moments from shows and experiences that could only happen in this uniquely connected fanbase. As time goes by, memories never die.
For reference this was recorded in early March, the day of the Buena Vista presale announcement.
