Don't know who the guitar dude is supposed to represent, but the recorded "boong" sound is similar to what you would get if you hit that guitar body with a soft mallet...
I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn that the kid with the recording isn't pulling an April 1 "Ferris Buehler" synth trick on the townfolk...
OTOH, a couple of microbarograph arrays (like used to detect and triangulate on aboveground nuke tests) would be fairly cheap and easy to implement. Using off-the-shelf tubing, sensors, computers, I/O modules and software, and with the help of a good surveyor for precise siting, you could have mB arrays running in a week or two.

The new Doppler seismic array system was the first to detect the small tremor swarm last week. And supposedly they do now have some excellent sound recording devices placed.

IMHO, the folks who are bothered by the "booms" would be well-advised to consult with
AFTAC...

Scratch the surveyor. A good GPS should suffice...
(Might need a better master clock than the usual PC provides, though.)
