Off - Wot No Brock?!/ captured rotation

[Carl Edlund Anderson]

Actually, there was a luthier here in Colombia who took some of the  
weapons from decommissioned paramilitary groups and turned them into  
guitars as a sort of symbolic "swords into ploughshares" thing.  A  
number of big-name musicians here keenly took them up, famously  
Colombian metalhead-turned-poprock-icon Juanes (who even took one on  
his US tour, and was amazed that it somehow breezed through customs  
with barely a second look while the utterly normal amplifiers were  
scrutinized in considerable detail).

Maybe I can get one of those -- there oughta be enough decommissioned  
weapons to go around! ;)

Cheers,
Carl
