Time to reflect on 2008.

I didn't do it for the cancer kids, they can fuck off.

Also I'm not really into Zappa as much as the other two; the only album I've listened to is Lumpy Gravy, and it's weird as fuck.

The parts that are actually music and not snorting or recordings of stoners rambling on about pigs and ponies are pretty good, though. I'll probably pick up some more of his stuff later.

Yeah, dude, it's Zappa.

Definitely check out Freak Out and We're Only In It For the Money and Absolutely Free. I've got a think for the early Mothers of Invention.

Anyway, they weren't stoners. Frank Zappa was pretty big against drug use and alcohol consumption. He smoked cigarettes, but that's it.

Which is a fun fact to consider when you listen to his music, as most people's first reaction to the Mothers of Invention is hearing "records of stoners rambling on about pigs and ponies" (and vegetables and hippies).
