Funny thing: back when I lived in Baltimore, I actually had a notion like this and started buying canned beans and bottled water. It was extra hilarious because the row house we lived in at the time was like 900 sq feet and the closet I stocked was maybe nine sq feet and it took me exactly one month of socking away extra grocery rations to realize that should something terrible actually happen, our stores would last us maybe a couple days. And that was the end of my great prepping experiment. I still get shit for it from my wife and my best friend. Gimme a break, I was 22.

There are some aspects of this one that I'm not crazy about some that I really like. What kind of acoustic do you use, and how do your record it? Acoustic guitars are so difficult to record faithfully (at least from a layperson's perspective?) and I love the tone/vibe you got from this one. Also, that crunchy guitar sound at the end. What the hell is that?

You working on anything else right now?
