Haha that makes a bit more sense in Royal Oak... college hippies - you know the deal. Royal Oak isn't exactly representative of this area though. Even so, I've never met anyone down there who was into...well.....

LMFAO, yeah that about sums it up. Most people around here struggle to even know who Sonic Youth is, aside from "that one Guitar Hero song" or maybe Rather Ripped.
Oh, and you know who makes the Residents smear fresh elephant feces all over their pupils? BOREDOMS
AND YES. "a few random tunes" is all I've heard. I mean, I get how he, and Zappa are obviously inspirational and all that - but they honestly sound a little...how do I say this without pissing you off at my ignorance...
dated to me?
Maybe I just haven't been listening to the right stuff of his. I'd be sure to check out an album or two to see if maybe I'm missing something though. I really was kinda just jesting moreso than saying that Beefheart blows. I do obviously prefer the Residents to Beefheart though. Nothing I've heard has ever really made me wanna dwell deeper into his material. At least he's not boring like Bob Dylan!
Oh, and also, isn't God in 3 Persons (your claimed favorite) a more recent Residents album? Does it have any of those people (Fred Frith, Renaldo and the Loaf, Snakefinger) on it? Which is the one that Les Claypool vocally impersonates on every album ever?
Teach me, Adam, TEACH ME THE WAY OF THE COOLEY.
And oh... you sold it for $30 online? That makes more sense. I can't wait to play it again.
