"Frank Zappa: I actually heard about it on the radio. We were returning from a job in Nornal, Illinois and had the radio on in the station wagon. The announcer said, "The Illinois Enema Bandit" has struck again', and I went, "What!" Apparently, this guy had been ravaging the area of Southern Illinois for a number of years.
