Oh yeah, that was quite the time. Zappa in s suit, shooting down all those narrow-minded politicos. The hearings were televised too. We would gather around just to see what Frank would do next. ------------- a.k.a. H.T. http://riekels.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow - http://riekels.wordpress.com |

| I remember all of that stuff Frank was doing. It's scary to think of the kind of stiffs running the U.S. Frank Zappa made that idiot John Lofton look like a cocky school kid as well as all the other goofs watching that adopt his very narrow views. He is so right about the U.S. approaching a facist state. It's all unfolding before our very eyes now. All one has to do is look at the Patriot Act and what that little document entails. Scary stuff really. Frank Zappa was light years ahead of the people running the United States then and now. The world needs more like him. |

Ha ha, that's awesome. Frank owned those punks. I don't support the banning of music either. I may not agree with what's being spoken of (satanism, incest etc.) but if you don't like it, don't listen to it. As long as it's not not being forced down my throat against my own will, I don't care. |

WORDS!!!! Frank rules...music censorship...what a stupid thing to do. I guess bands like Tool would be the first ones to get banned ------------- "You want me to play what, Robert?"
