Welcome to Gig Bag, a BGS feature that peeks into the touring essentials of some of our favorite artists. This time around, we look at what Oklahoma singer/songwriter John Moreland has to have handy when he’s out on the road.
Junior Junior II: Heâs an alligator head. He pretty much just chills with us. Sometimes he hangs at the merch table, sometimes he hangs on the dash. We picked him up in Florida, after some dickhead stole his father (Junior Junior Sr) from us, at a show in San Luis Obispo, California.
Sinex: Itâs nasal spray. Iâm totally addicted to it. I donât care. I need it.
Dice: For gambling away your per diem in the green room.
Truckers Luv It: For when youâve gotta drive from Charleston, South Carolina, to Indio, California.
Blue Diamond Wasabi Soy Almonds: These are almonds that taste like wasabi and soy sauce. Greatest snack ever (that you can buy from a gas station).
Fireworks: Bottlerockets. Self-explanatory.
