Belew sat uncomfortably observing as his present boss sneeringly addressed his impending boss as "Captain Tom".<br /><br />F' 2016. F' 1993. Fuck cancer.

People are so full of the ExMass spirit that they go out caroling at 1:00 AM.<br /><br />O Zappa my Zappa: A portion of my 1969 included FZ & TMOI -- you'd expect his music traveled to SE Asia; didn't hear it there but have spoken to those who did. So there.<br /><br />"1000 Motels" ('Orchestral Favorites' version).

You mean I've been cranking away—albeit sporadically—for 10 years, and nobody had the courtesy to like let me know? Damn. I mean c'mon.<br /><br />Was a Zappa fan from earliest days, as much for the anti-establishment-ism of it as for his sublime guitar virtuosity. Hell, Wisdoc even had complementary LPs when we met. I mean, how could I not? I did enjoy the social component of Zappadan, true. This year I marked it the way I wish I could mark xmas—quietly noted, said nothing, moved on. Thanks, though, for the remembrance.<br /><br />Best!Jim H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02088100982761595050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020960402708303830.post-62690795223499568382016-12-21T11:10:47.671-05:002016-12-21T11:10:47.671-05:00Yeah, Blegsylvania be ghost town.

If I'm going to howl into the void about the joys of Uncle Meat, why waste time doing it on a blog.<br /><br />Mark Hoback dba The Aristocrats started Zappadan 10 years ago. I imagine there are still pockets of people celebrating it all over the world, without a clue about how it startedzencomixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02425613931488064403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020960402708303830.post-17911606552756001712016-12-21T10:13:24.043-05:002016-12-21T10:13:24.043-05:00zappa songs i remember fondly:
