The English, the Chinese, the Afghans & Vietnamese were a race

Muslims are not.

But Arabs are. Isn't it really Arabs that are your problem?

Well if you say so .....

never mind there are 240 million Asian Muslims just to our north

and their extremists killed 202 people in Bali of which

88 were Australian.

So obviously the problem isn't just with Arab muslims but Muslims globally despite their race.

Mind you Arab Muslims think all of the other races who have adopted Islam as inferior & not true Muslims like them.  Roll Eyes

So where does the problem lay?

With Islam or with Arabs?

TiSM were novel and quasi-funny. Unfortunately they were a VERY pale version of Devo. I'm surprised an intelligent man such as Pecker would be inspired by a B-grade rip-off. Then again; Zappa was never as interesting as Captain Beefheart.

TISM and Devo (who I love) are completely different.

Captain Beefheart was brilliant, as was Frank.

Root! are wonderful (featuring one of the lead singers from TISM).

The only similar thing between Devo and TISM is that they both wear things on their heads.

Theatrics and lyrical impact are important.  For me; it's all aboutbthe music. For mine; Frank Zappa never put out anything as good as 'Trout mask'. Musically, TISM were crap.

Trout Mask remains one of my favourite albums.

Musically, TISM were brilliant.
