went to see the zappa plays zappa gig last night. my friend louise bought me a ticket (which were rather expensive) for my 20th birthday.. she also bumped into the keyboard player the night before and got on the guestlist.. so the show was fucking incredible, they didn't shy away from the really difficult material (they did inca roads, black page #1 and #2, pygmy twylyte, amongst others) and steve vai was his usual guitar-god wanker. after the gig though, we got to hang out with the band at a bar beside their hotel, and had a fucking incredible time. really sound, down-to-earth people.. which kinda surprised me - given their amazing musicianship, i was kinda expecting more remote and distant personalities, but they were jus straight up there. whatever that means. anyway it was the best night of my life. please feel happy for me. |

I read a review of the performance in Amsterdam in a Dutch paper that said that it was all technically very proficient, but lacking in one pretty important aspect - humour. they said that Dweezil basically has no sense of it and takes it all a bit too seriously. some guy in the Amsterdam audience threw a cd-r on stage and Dweezil stopped the show and demanded that the guy leave the room. that was all in a paper, although a friend of mine was there and he did confirm these seri0s allegations! |

No....! Unbelievable. Some of the funniest papa zappa live bits are about people throwing underwear onstage, like the famous voodoo butter underpants. Dweezil should be stripped of his family name. |

jesus that's a bit out of order.. the guy's an incredible guitarist, giving steve vai a run for his money.. but yes, what you said is right - there was barely any crowd interaction (even though afterwards they were saying we were the loudest and most boistrous yet).. he just didn't really respond.. he'd just keep his smile on, nod a hell of a lot, and play music. kept me happy though :) |
