Artist's Comments

Frank Zappa was awesome. He was an athiest, a freethinker, an artist, and he stood up against censorship and didn't take shit from Tipper Gore. Plus, look at that snazzy mustache.

    The PMRC proposal is an ill-conceived piece of nonsense which fails to deliver any real benefits to children, infringes the civil liberties of people who are not children, and promises to keep the courts busy for years dealing with the interpretational and enforcemental problems inherent in the proposal's design. It is my understanding that, in law, First Amendment issues are decided with a preference for the least restrictive alternative. In this context, the PMRC's demands are the equivalent of treating dandruff by decapitation. (...) The establishment of a rating system, voluntary or otherwise, opens the door to an endless parade of moral quality control programs based on things certain Christians do not like. What if the next bunch of Washington wives demands a large yellow "J" on all material written or performed by Jews, in order to save helpless children from exposure to concealed Zionist doctrine?


Frank Zappa was awesome.

Wow, that speech was awesome! I didn't realize just how great this guy was, but now I know. He also looks cool.

Nice work. I thought it was George Harrison at first but then I saw the mean stair :)

I guess I could sort of see that. Georgie had more beard goin' on instead of Frank's soulpatch thing.

I like this one a lot. There is a lot of character in that face, added to the great amount of character that was already present. Maybe I see a little Joe Camel.

Did you know about how after all those testimonies from Zappa and D Schneider and after all that stuff resolved, they put a parental advisory sticker on an instrumental album that Zappa realeased? You probably did no that, but I thought I'd ask just in case you didn't.
