This one was recorded in bits, mostly on August 16 as we drove to our gig at Gracie's in Bastrop, TX.

Topics include why we settled on our chosen instruments, and how our different personalities blend to form a whole band. Had some audio problems in the "van", so apologies for the choppy volume levels.
