I never got around to seeing Zappa. It never occurred to me that he would
just go and fucking die before I had a chance to see him in concert. (And I
didn't think of crashing Philip K. Dick's place until it was too late,
either.)
No, wait, I actually did see Zappa, but at a quasi-political event. I was
embarrassed for him for being so scientifically clueless.
Obligatory favorite Zappa album: Burnt Wienie Sandwich.

"Stop that. You'll hurt your voice."
Mr. Barfko-Swill was responding to a heckler in concert, who was ranting
about
some fascist plot or other. The Chief Mother was always happy to deflate
the
pompous and other clueless types. Still one of my favorites. FWIW, I saw
The
Mothers in Houston about 3 years before Rohit was born.

Hey you,
Out there on your own,
Sitting naked by the phone,
Would you touch me?
Um, nevermind. In fact, don't even think about MBone, okay?
