<CanHasDIY> Do I look like a cat to you, boy?
Yes.
If you have a good sized garage that is "bouncy", you can get a nice short verb out of that.
Yes, you can, but since you don't have control over the positioning of the walls, they'll be likely to be parallel and thus cause standing waves, which will sound pretty nasty in reverb. To counter that, it helps to randomly scatter the sound waves. Given the choice, a garage with a car parked in it will probably sound better than an empty one. Most impressive live reverb I ever heard in my life was an underground parking lot. I made a point out of slamming my car door shut with the windows open, just to enjoy the sound and long tail of it. Probably useless for most recordings. But man what a sound it was. 12-storey stairwell in my apartment building wasn't bad either... I liked playing acoustic guitar in there quite a lot. Always wondered if occasional passers-by thought I was mad though.

Oh REALLY?
I don't know what you've been on, but I want some. It must be awesome living in such a rainbow-and-unicorn fantasy. It must be such a blessing to be debt-free, not have a credit card and not to have a mortgage. And it's so great that your employer is willing to go through the work to pay you in cash, rather than by bank transfer. I'm sure they keep your salary in cash as well. Just make sure the thugs don't know when your payday is and where you keep your mattress. You don't want them to find out you're constantly walking around with wads of cash.
Face it dude. you're tied into a bank account, whether you want it or not.
For God's sake, stop researching for a while and begin to think!
