To pull a Zappa, To skip class, to be non existent. The person everyone knows is real but has never seen. To never show up.
Example #1:
person 1: are you going to go to class today?
person 2: no, I'm planing on pulling a zappa.
Example #2:
person 1: Hey I didn't see you at the party last night
person 2: no, I pulled a zappa.

my spiritual father. most known for his association with the mothers of invention or simply the mothers. he was also a composer, producer, guitarist, and film director. his music is fuckin awesome! avant garde and sort of eccentric to most people but just fuckin rad if you listen to good music. he incorporated rock n roll with obvious undertones of jazz, classical, and other musical collages and mashups. its like listening to a movie instead of watching one if that makes sense. kids my age don't even know zappa. damn shame. he's one if not the only original orginalists and truly creative pioneers of music out there. he also gave his offspring wicked ass names. he's on par with my other musical god jim morrison.
he's a saggitarius, as jim. they are known for being the most philosophical and creative signs out there. i needs to find me a mighty archer baby.

A guy whose music is like jumping in the deep end on a hot summer's day. It looks weird from the outside, you've thought about it but can't bring yourself to do it, but you try. It's cold as fuck at first and you have to tread water, but then, hey, you get used to it. Then it gets comfortable, and you don't want to get out. And look all around! The beauty surrounding you, palm trees and little things you wouldn't have really sat down and observed without the cold shock of the water, and each time you go back in the pool you find something brand new. Go, listen.
Joe: Hey, how long have you listened to Frank Zappa?
Greggery: Maybe a year or two. I've listened to all his stuff.
Joe: Yeah? What about Waka Jawaka?
Greggery: Huh?

A visionary, a real musician, and one damn fine guitarist. Frank didn't give a damn about musical labels or conventions. He collaborated with everyone from Flo & Eddy to George Duke to Tuvian Throat Singers. He was also the first to realize that dental floss was an important cash crop to the state of Montana.
Frank Zappa was a genius
