I have been a life long fan of Frank Zappa and think that today should be known as Zappa Day.

Call Any Vegetable - my first time hearing Frank.

Saw him with the MOI and other assorted artists a few times. He was quite a performer and artist.

Rest easy, Frank!

It just so happens that today was proclaimed "Frank Zappa Day" in Baltimore, MD (where I happen to live and where Frank was born). If my information is correct, a statue of Frank (which was donated to the city of Baltimore by a Zappa fan club in Lithuania or somewhere in Eastern Europe), was unveiled in front of the Enoch Pratt Free Library in Highlandtown. The Mayor was on hand and a copy of the decree can be seen on the ZPZ website.

Sorry to double post but I found a link to a short story in the Washington Post:

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/annapo ... e_day.html

And I also didn't realize that today was the 22nd. Old age I guess. :)
