I think that we should have an entire newsgroup dedicated to that
mastermind of modern music and, apparently, semi-professional wrestler?
Zoogz Rift, come on up here, I know you're there! C'mon, gang, support
one of the geniuses who has once and for good actually killed the
dinosaur that was ROCK and Roll (Not unlike St. George and the
dragon,eh?)

Zoogz is a man who truly deserves his own newsgroup.

I personally named both my children after him.

Cheers,
bobo

I second this proposal! Zoogz Rift has done more than anyone else I
MYSELF PERSONALLY KNOW OF to combat insipid bullshit in the world, on the
net, ANYWHERE. This man's vitae reads like your BEST WET DREAM and like
your enemies' MOST BOWEL-LOOSENING NIGHTMARE. He does not spout deadening
pseudo-leftist platitudes; he does not simply talk; he does not simply
act; he LIVES every word he says. Unlike the vapid garbage your friends
listen to, *his* music truly is "alternative", reflecting as it does a unique
and boundless imagination and personality AND talent.

A newsgroup devoted to Zoogz and his works will provide a sanctuary of
sanity in a medium choked with sophomoric dumbfucks who do nothing but
bitch endlessly at each other for saying things the other does not
necessarily agree with.

I say YES to alt.fan.zoogz-rift. LET IT COME DOWN!!!

Nyes! We MUST have a GOD DAMN SHRINE for the man -- the LEGEND
that is Zoogz Rift! This man is FOR REAL. I have his Promo Pak and
It was the EPIPHANY of the AMERICAN PUKE ISLAND DREAM. He *is* a
GREAT guitar-player and singer. He *is* a TRUE UNDERGROUND musician.
He *is* (or was) a pro wrestling manager::: It just proves once
again, that:

WHEN THE GOING GETS WEIRD THE WEIRD TURN TO PRO-WRESTLING!

I've got a *blessed* SIGNED picture of Zoogz in his Liquid Moamo
costume and another of him standing next to The Warlord (a pro
wrestler.) You'd never "dis" that Warlord dude I tell you AND
you better not DIS HIS MANAGER. Ok, for you "intellectual" Unix
Sysadmins, the "manager" is this MONTEBANK (look it up, FOOL!)
who stands next to the wrestler and TALKS him up. Zoogz introduces
The Warlord as "the Man of the 21'st Century" -- and Zoogz is
dressed in a Crowley Cultist robe...

But the REAL ZOOGZ is Zoogz the musician. He's compared to
Frank Zappa. HELL. Compare him to Emile Zola and Camille
Saint-Saens (with two dots over the e.) What I'm telling you is
that Emile Zola wrote J'Accuse and the whole twenty-two volume
'friggin Roquart-Marchand series or whatever it's called.
Zola was BANNED in his time! I'm right! Zola was BANNED and
Zoogz is BANNED because Zoogz has tapes and records -- YOU CAN
BUY THEM -- called Island of Living Puke (he hates the suburban
mentality) and Die, You Cretinous Bastards and Fuck God Fuck Your
Mother Fuck <something-or-other> Fuck You.

This is NOT the nice PREPACKAGED DESIGNER LABEL angst and rebellion
being sold out of every shopping mall in AmeriKKKa today. And his
music is ORIGINAL -- he has a trombone and accordion player in the
band when he did the gig in Germany -- THEY PLAYED POLKA MUSIC!
Or a very DERANGED kind of polka music. His group ("The Shit Heads")
includes a xylophone player who is REALLY GOOD -- not SHITTY at all.
Zoogz sings in an operatic voice sometimes for effect. THIS IS
THE MUSIC CONGRESS DOESN'T WANT PEOPLE TO HEAR.

I'm running out of steam, folks. The Saint-Saens comparison
is because of Saint-Saens UNCONVENTIONAL Symphony in two movements
-- the second movement with a GOD DAMN CHURCH ORGAN! Saint-Saens
'friggin IGNORED the whole sonata format. What a SLEAZEBALL!

"We must destroy art before art destroys US!" (Zoozg Rift)

And Zoogz is the ARCHTYPICAL SUBGENIUS -- as if that were EVEN
POSSIBLE -- Zoogz is the ONLY THING THAT STANDS BETWEEN US
AND A THOUSAND YEAR RIECH OF REPUBLICANISM!!! CREATE HIS NEWSGROUP!!!

Y'know...
I've never even *heard* Zoogz Rift's stuff, but after reading his
posts to various newsgroups I think the guy deserves a group of his own. He's
a fantastic personality (and a helluva nice guy when you e-mail him.)

Count me in.
