that it's the worst, because the genius of the music tricks people into thinking the process or any of the ideas surrounding it are worth a ****
Frank Zappa had a disdain for "pretentious" plastic people and the "pretentious" club scene. He was also against the "pretentious" music industry. I don't know how you turned it around and made him the one who was "pretentious." You logic is like a laboratory rat maze and once again I failed to get the cheese.
