In TRFZB, Frank Zappa wrote about playing in a pickup band at a Christmas dance held at a Mormon recreation hall.
"I didn't know anything about Mormons at the time, so, during a break when I lit up a cigarette, it was as if The Devil Himself had made a rare personal appearance. A bunch of guys who looked like they weren't ready to shave yet started flailing over to me and, in a brotherly sort of way, escorted my ass out the door. I knew I was going to love show business if I ever got into it."
