Skunk Baxter Protects The Free World
Jack Bauer, take a hike. Former Doobie Brothers guitarist Jeff “Skunk” Baxter might be our last line of defense (thanks to Sam Frank for the link).
“We thought turntables were for playing records until rappers began to use them as instruments, and we thought airplanes were for carrying passengers until terrorists realized they could be used as missiles,” says Mr. Baxter, who sports a ponytail and handlebar mustache. “My big thing is to look at existing technologies and try to see other ways they can be used, which happens in music all the time and happens to be what terrorists are incredibly good at.”
Hey Skunk ever wondered why guitars have a limited number of strings?
