    Ok maybe the song is called Makeup and Faded Blue Jeans i thought it was Downtown Modesto lol

    I love this performance because everyone else is in a suit and tie and the Hag shows up dressed like he drove a John Deere to the show. He has this look on his face when he sings like he is someone’s dad from the audience that got too drunk and wondered onto stage only to realize he could sing and play guitar

    Idk why strumming feels more natural to me with my fingernails than a pick. Irony is I would rather be better with a pick.

    The guitar is a cheapo recording king that i bought because i wanted a parlor size couch guitar to practice fingerpicking but ends up the nut is too small for my huge hands.
