I never cared for him much anyway. I'll take Frank Zappa or Ozzy Osbourne over him any day.
I'm a fan of them all. Completely different kinds of music.
Are you kidding?
Zappa treated HIS audiences like they were little kids, lecturing them to shut up and sit down and "stop making noises like a bunch of cattle."
As someone who saw Zappa play several dozen times, I can say that the one thing that irked me about him was his attitude of superiority.
I remember seeing him once in Princeton at McCarter Theater (?) and he began throwing back the dental floss that audience members were flipping onto the stage.
Zappa, for all his musical talents, was no respecter of the public.
