I saw the Zappa Plays Zappa Show Friday night in Zürich, and it KILLED!!! The tickets are totally expensive, but it's worth the expense...an excellent selection of gems, played flawlessly and with great respect & devotion by a young band, Napoleon fronting in great form, and Steve Vai blazed through half the show...Terry Bozzio is also playing some shows, unfortunately he wasn't in Zürich...I've heard he and vai together kicked booty in Germany. The show was over three hours long. Dweezil lead through it with a totally relaxed posture, as if he were playing Eagle's tunes, and not "Edchinda's Arf". It may be the last time anybody sees anything close to what a Zappa concert was really like, ever again.
Here's a set list, they do more when Bozzio is there, like "Punky's Whips" and "Tryin' to Grow a Chin": Help I'm A Rock Hungry Freaks Daddy Let's make the water turn black Florentine Pogen Pygmy Twilight Idiot b*****d Son Cheepniz King Kong Don't Eat The Yellow Snow St Alphonso's Pancake Breakfast Vivien O'Blivion Inca Roads City Of Tiny Lights Black Page pt 1 and 2 Peaches en Regalia.. Montana Village Of The Sun Edchina's Arf of you Zomby Woof Sofa .. 2 Encore: Camarillo Brillo Son of Orange County Trouble Every Day Token of my extreme |

That must have been an awesome show. If it comes anywhere near me I'll be there. -------------
