There's no shortage of articles about this so-called credit crunch we're in, how shitty the economy is, how gas is four bucks a gallon, how your neighbors' houses are going on the block sooner than later, all that. "Genevieve & Me" is a song I wrote and recorded in about three hours last month, after a close friend was suddenly sucked under: It seemed, for a few days, like he was going to lose his home, even though all conventional logic would suggest he's in great shape financially. It all got sorted out, but I got the guest room all cleaned out nonetheless. And I recorded this, on a cassette.

It's such an upbeat song about such a sorry situation. Laughable darkness...I love that balance of truth. Thanks for sharing your demo with us! Your album Field Manual is such a great balance of relaxing and rockin' music. In all your "free" time you should write another one! Then, come to Bremerton again and we will all rally for Obama. ;) Love ya!

I'm sorry, is DCFC guest blogging or is it just Chris Walla?
(I'm kidding) But Chris does seem pretty into this blogging gig.
Thanks for the posts!
