>Silly question, but is that a Tragically Hip reference? (I was >rewatching the video for "Bobcaygeon," and I noticed that Rob Baker >has that same inscription on his guitar.) I don't know who Rob Baker is, but I approve of his taste in guitar graffiti. He's making a reference to the same root source: the late Woody Guthrie (1912-1967, composer of "This Land Is Your Land", father of Arlo Guthrie of "Alice's Restaurant" fame) was known for labeling his guitars thus. It is reputed to have come from a marking he saw in a photo of a Republican aircraft during the Spanish Civil War (though I would presume that the original wasn't in English - "esta máquina mata fascistas"?). --G. -><- Benjamin D.
