[ff45t1z]

Anyone know the song at 1:00? haha.

[mydizzymelody]

8:47We’re talking about kids that don't know the meaning of life Frank and you're telling them to vote?John Lofton. So let me get this straight18 years of age = go to war and die for corporate profits *coughs,I mean freedom!But@18 not old enough to know the meaning of life.No wonder UncleSam gets them young;they don't know what they’re giving up yet.My kids are never going in the military! I love America but what we have is a counterfeit! Fascist Theocracy not a Democracy let alone a Republic!

[katkal3]

i am so envious of lofton's awesome combover.It's not a shitty combover like guilianni used to sport, no, lofton's combover is like a greek god's.

[FreeJamExperiment]

"why should i smile when i'm sitting here with you?"

...*Zappa smiles

hahahahahahaha

[Racemaniacable]

franks body languaGE IS F*CKING PRICELESS:)

[HallJJ08]

censorcism is bullshit, if someone wrote a song saying jump of a cliff repeatedly, the whole world would not suddenly rush and jump off cliffs the world over.

[AudioVisualMatter]

One of Frank's finest moments, along with the PMRC Senate hearing. It's also one of the greatest displays of a man (Lofton) who can simulate a head of hair by smearing dogshit and Mop 'N Glo over the top of his skull.

[MrChirpsky]

The dream of fascists: create fuzzy legislation that will cause people to oppress & censor themselves (e.g., ratings which are inherently arbitrary and subjective).

[MrChirpsky]

"Well why should I smile when I'm sitting here with you."

[panhead1219]

LOFTON IS brain dead !

[Kurkgrand]

Maybe the Government should protect John Lofton of his own worst fears. The social security covers mental health care?

HOORAY for ZAPPA!

[ruleta74835]

Never saw Frank go so long without a smoke... I love how Lofton can't argue Frank about Pastor Brothers and so he abruptly interjects and changes the subject at 8:15.

[LiFe0In1ThE0MaTrix01]

rock and roll RULES THE WORLD YOUR KIDS ARE NOT SAFE! sorry. zappa is spot on as always in this interview. and fuck these right winngers sex is dirty rock and roll is the devil BULLSHIT its good for you! and if that is in fact the devils music idd rather listen the devil than the slop they put out in the media. i wanna hear people who play from their heart. i have so much respect for frank zappa keep the music alive

[marty7044]

great clip. we sure have come a long way since then.

[sanspoint]

5:04 GODWIN'S LAW!

[Pyrofries]

6:48 "Good grief!"

HAHAHHAHAHA

[suziecreamchease]

i think that zappa is finding it difficult not to throw up when sitting next to such an obvious ahole..

but as usual..a genius. Says so little - just lets mr Loften dig himself into a whole.

[inventiontension]

Grasping at straws Lofton.

[glun]

Nihilism, in MY John Lofton?

[inventiontension]

6:38-6:48 John Lofton doesn't want the youth to vote. He wants suppression, he wanted the youth to be nothing more then drones during this entire show. Listen carefully, he even said "good grief" when Zappa proposed the idea of voting or running for something. So if you were an american teen in 1986 your vote was nothing more then a silly notion by this guy.

[piregister]

John Lofton is making a fool of himself.
