Live Zappa

I just got tix to see Dweezil play highlights from Roxy and Elsewhere and Apostrophe, it’s the 50th anniversary of both. I’ve never seen him, and those are two of my favorite Zappa albums. I’m excited.

Any Zappa alum in the current Dweezil band?

The advertising didn’t say.

Listening to first disc of ‘Shut Up and Play yer Guitar’ last week, it occurred to me if Autechre was a prog rawk band it would probably sound something like this. There is not a straight beat on that whole record.

I was also watching one of those videos on the tube going over Zappa’s chord progressions and the time signature madness in some of those tunes, is pretty wild.
