#Zappadan
#zappadan toast for the day - Duckfoot Brewery St Alphonso’s Pancake Breakfast stout (gluten reduced). Has maple syrup, coffee, and 12.8% alcohol so will treat with respect…
Of Jim “Motorhead” Sherwood, one of Frank Zappa’s oldest friends, Zappa said, “He’s one of those guys you say, ‘I know this guy who’s really weird and I want to show him to you.” #IWishMotorheadWouldComeBack #Zappadan
Today is a special day, because the first time I hear retail Christmas music it works as intended. It's the ninth of December. I prefer to shop online for many reasons, some even carbon saving.
Then I get to choose my own holiday music. Perhaps it's time to end this tyranny of #retail ears, which excludes so many wonders from multiple celebrations. For myself, I like to start early, with #Zappadan. Specifically, the album Hot Rats.
I'm not suggesting all grocery shoppers browse the aisles to "My Guitar Wants To Kill Your Momma." That's a job for #Santa, and now he's looped in.
I'm saying why subject anyone to a throwback version of a very specific type of holiday celebration which hasn't aged well? I should know.
It was mine. Not anymore.
December 4-21 is when we remember Frank Zappa by celebrating #Zappadan. We begin my first Zappadan on Mastodon in the traditional way: Watermelon in Easter Hay, from "Joe's Garage".
In celebration of #zappadan and the late, great Ted Orr (guitar).

I just learned about Zappadan. December just got way better.
Good morning, #HephalumpWorld! Tea is steeping.
Why are 🍊🤡 and his 🇷🇺-financed insurrectionist cohorts not yet in custody? Who's the 3rd world shithole now?

Tristan is ready for #Zappadan tomorrow.
I've taken his "look down from my cat tree smile" with a holiday tree background and added a stylish Zappa moustache and soul patch.
