4. The Best of TimesDay 15. Dane and the guys arrive at Kent State for Tourgasm's first show without Gary, who is rumored to be in L.A. with his girlfriend. Despite his absence, and Bobby and Jay's bickering, the show is a killer, with Dane getting a standing ovation.TV-MACC30minJul 2, 2006

6. Competitively SpeakingIn Charlottesville, VA, the boys compete in a game of paintball that ends with Dane crying foul play. Later, Dane's dizzy spell fuels speculation that the show will be cancelled, but Gary's 'perfect' set, and the crowd's support, pull him through.TV-MACC30minJul 16, 2006

9. Curtain CallIn the series finale, Dane and the boys take on a new adventure: Fighter Pilot for a Day school. It's terrifying--and nauseating--but reliving the tour afterward is hilarious, especially with highlights like Jay's porn-filled hotel bill!TV-MACC30minAug 4, 2006
