So...

[Zappa]

I've been here for 5 years. Celebrate 1/20 of a century with me.

[Kayetan]

If you want to talk about it privately, then hit me up on aim, k pal? I know you're a little shaken up by this whole thing.

[beso negro]

dang, 1/20 of a century. you must feel old

[bleep_bloop]

go outside

[Sam]

Honestly dude...I'm really sorry. My heart goes out to you.

[sgrevs]

I've been here two and a half. I'm celebrating 1/40th of a century. But seriously, that's a real long time.

[team_racket]

i always read these pages for almost 2 years. but never posted. then i registered.

[YDload]

sup zappa, i remember when you were "mx boglin" and made fun of me for liking System Of A Down.

you were right, you always were :(

[Eliminator]

MX is Zappa's own internet redhead.

[JonM]

Amazing.

[YDload]

everyone talka about albums zappa introduced you to (or increased your interest in until you got the album yourself)

Nomeansno- Wrong
Minutemen- double nickels
Wire- Pink Flag

[JonM]

Minutemen - 2x 5¢
Charles Mingus - Pithecanthropus Erectus
Frank Zappa - everything

There's a lot more, I'm just blanking.

[Eliminator]

Nothing, really.

[Kayetan]

Same, nothing.

[pixiesfanyo]

Yusef Lateef.

Aren't you leaving?

[Zappa]

Yusef Lateef.

Aren't you leaving?

Mmmm, not with any kind of bang.

[Dave de Sylvia]

I've been here longer than you, young man.

[mr_jackalope]

Look, I'm right in the middle of SOP and Zappa. Who woulda guessed that I'm more leet than Alex?

Why are you leaving?

[Happymeal]

Pretty much everything I've gotten into pre-80's was more or less recommended/mentioned/bashed by Zappa

[_Mote_]

Let's see what has changed in the last 5 years for me...

I thought Good Charlotte were "Punx Rawk"
I had a Rivers Cuomo, "Sweater Song" music video-era bowl cut...
I wore Gap sweaters that were at least 5 sizes too big...
I had braces on my two front teeth...

Day'um, 5 years is a long time... Congrats to you!

[Zappa]

I'm not leaving, I'm just going to back off a little bit.

[FA]

I remembr joinin mx years ago, but only posted like 20 times...

[bleep_bloop]

same here
i had a different name and it was too long so i was like "**** this" and i made a new one and didnt like that one either so i made bleep bloop

[_Mote_]

I had Mote, but I used my AIM mail to register. About a week later, I got a Yahoo address and made _Mote_. It kind of pissesme off to type in the little _'s, but whatever.

[EightMilesHigh]

zappa introduced me to the cool jazz.

[Kage]

I'm not leaving, I'm just going to back off a little bit.

5 years and 9,000 posts, it seems like there's not much backing off to be done.

[Robert Crumb]

Zappa is my style king!

[asdf]

I also remember you as the MX Boglin. I have a boglin right near me right now, actually.

It's funny and a little strange that you see my brother occasionally. Going to do a music project together?

[pulseczar]

zappa has almost as much longevity as the original zappa, congrats man

[biografiend]

Zappa and I both love the Slits.

[Little Man being Erased]

Hi Zappa,

You got me into Talking Heads, Wire, NoMeansNo, Blackalicious, Gang of Four and Magazine amongst others. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Little Man being Erased

[Sam]

He's a good man.

[Zmev]

Yeah Nomeansno is pretty sweet.

[ATM]

I used to grab music from Alex all the time on AIM. Hmm I suppose he got me into Wire, Harmonia, and others that are escaping me right now.

[_Mote_]

Zappa and I both love the Slits.

Mote likes the Slits.
Not that I matter, cos everyone here hates me :(

[biografiend]

hay, liking the Slits automatically = :cool:
Although their new EP is pretty god-awful. Unless you like Kylie Minogue, Fergie, and Axl Rose.

[cobert]

Oh how sweet.
5 years ago I was 12.
You were on here when I was 12.
This site existed when I was 12.
I was on this site when I was 14.
Im almost amazed.

[Electronic Wolf]

[ImusInTheMorning]

Compelling and rich.

[CarnageFairy]

Dude congrats on 1/200 of a millenium.

Oh and 1/200000 of an eon.

[Rabbi]

o.O

[The Stig]

I remember when Zappa and I were new. We used to post. But then we went our separate ways (to different subsections). And now I pop my head in here on occasion. Happy fifth, Zappa. Mine's in six or seven days.

[mr_jackalope]

Man yall celebrate your 5 years? Crazy stuff.


I probably have the lowest post/day percent of the entire board.

[perriwinkle]

Battles - EP C
Cul De Sac - Ecim
Don Caballero? maybe...
Frank Zappa - Uncle Meat

I bet that rocks your socks.

[elnicky]

I don't know who or why, but I'm sure somehow this board put on to 'Pink Flag', so perhaps it was you, directly or inadvertently. Either way, thanks.

[_Mote_]

I knew about Pink Flag a long time before I joined this forum...

But hey, Zappa is still a good guy.

[Sam]

Dude u r so cool how ken i b leik u?

[_Mote_]

Zappa made me ask for a Minutemen cd for Christmas :)
