Hello Mr (or is this the Mrs?) Skull, I apologize if my question appeared accusatory- I did not mean that at all. On most of the Zappa related groups I've gone to there are many questions asked in jest that appear to be serious (Does Humor belong in an Email group?) Sometimes a very esoteric

Honestly, no. Truth is I've never conversed with any *serious* Zappa fans until this list. I've met many who really like him, have seen shows, own recorded material but that's it. If it ever was uttered in any of the recordings of live shows I've watched or heard, I missed it. Sincere

It's cool. No ffense taken. My response was not intended to be nasty, I just was trying to get across that I've lived my life in a bit of a bubble when it comes to Zappa. The only other person I know who is serious about Frank is my wife. Even the guy who turned me onto Frank in High School

Hey, I've been a sworn Zappa fan for 35 years, and I hadn't heard the term Nappy 'till now, I only figured out from the context of the first two messages in the thread that it was Napolean Murphy Brock... I ordered tickets online months in advance, and traveled half way around the world to see
