Here’s Donald Rumsfeld, doing a good job showing why G Dubya B. should be censured. Maybe it’s the poetry gig?

Snork

March 22nd, 2004 • Barry's Imaginary Publisher

Finally, a way to have sex and look like an idiot: “The Pussy Snorkel allows a man to continue breathing while performing oral sex on a woman in a spa, bathtub or even a bowl of green Jell-O.”

Tour scarves…

March 20th, 2004 • Bertanya

Obviously the indispensable souvenir of a visit to an fz concert, the tour scarf. These fashion accessories are from an assortment of items collected by a surprise hiree, who is a source of some interesting recollections too. - ‘It’s play or die.’

Zappa Tributos

There’s a spanish guy publishing Zappa-tribute albums - made by spanish groups, sometimes in spanish, now he’s at nr. 7. You can check out samples of earlier Zappa covers here. Some of them are fun.

Connie the Cone

March 18th, 2004 • Balint

The Coneheads at home - with FZ as guest, really crazy. So that’s where the lyrics of the song comes from. I even like the disco-version of it (by ZombyWoof)

Wino Man

March 17th, 2004 • Barry's Imaginary Publisher

“After several of these bizarre calls, whoever it was began to have actual conversations with me. He never identified himself, but it was apparent by the sound of his voice that this was no little kid. This was a grown man, probably in his forties or fifties, who was quite likely completely insane.”

ZappaPest 1991

March 16th, 2004 • Balint

June 30 1991 - the day the russians left Hungary, a day something new started - the day I met Frank Zappa in Budapest. How should we know it would be his last solo on stage ever? (Yes, we shook hands).
