Ever hear the Zappa song 'The Torture Never Stops'?

Fifty ugly soldiers, man, holdin' spears by the iron door

Hard to beat the live at the fillmore thing and the grand wazooo

Never saw him live, not even once. In fact, 'i can't recall him ever

I used to hop the Greyhound to St. Louis to see him every chance I
could
in high school and early college years.


You may move me to another cascade!
