So…. I recorded a song for this week, but Garageband decided to crash instead of saving my work…. which led to my blue Jackson Kelly being rendered unusable.

Instead of rerecording that song, I decided to write an instrumental to purge some of the bad emotions…. and this is that song. It has a nice bluesy feel - probably from the combo of the A pentatonic blues scale, a cheap strat knockoff thru a class A amp (although its only a model) and the cheesy organ…. Of course, it wouldn’t be a song of mine if it didn’t have some weird noises, heavy riffs and over-the-top shred (which even includes some of that two handed tapping)

The title refers to the broken guitar, but is also a tip of the hat to Merlin Mann (aka hotdogsladies) and the You Look Nice Today podcast. Of course…. if those guys hear this and mention me…. My cunning plan will have worked….
