The downloads were one of the reasons the tickets were more expensive. My opinion is that the main reason, in most cases at least, that the tickets were more expensive is that the concerts were held in smaller venues. I'm glad I attended even without having received the download for the show I attended (Oct. 19th at the Morse in Chicago). It was a memorable experience and I'd pay the price again without a second thought. I still think that Dweezil will come through on this for us. Patience is a virtue and the quality of my life has not diminished due to not having the received the download of the concert I attended. I have plenty of Zappa music to listen to. And I will see ZPZ again if they come to the Wisconsin/Illinois area again. In fact I'm contemplating a road trip with my wife to LA to see the ZPZ/Jeff Beck show.
Have fun ripping into me, I don't care!
These individuals are incapable of ripping you, they may thrash out like small children who have not been raised correctly, but they lack the were-with-all to form a cohesive argument for why they are having their tantrum, due to their immaturity.
They cannot get a handle on the fact all across this country and the world that people and entities have had to cut back and therefore may not be able to follow thru on all their good intentioned plans. So like a child that does not get ice cream on a trip they whine and whine…I WANT MY ICE CREAM YOU PROMISED. You know some have had pay cuts, furloughs, lost jobs, insurance, 401K’s, homes…you lost a specific download…AND STILL GOT A DOWNLOAD…WTF…
If we take Dweezil at his word he had individuals who were to be involved in this ambitious task that did not follow thru, fair enough. Now during Hard Times USA would the whiners have him pour money into this project, which may put the bands ability to tour effectively in the future at risk.
Let’s face it you did not pay that much more for your ticket and you got an intimate setting and a free download. I would be willing to bet I paid as much as you did during that leg of that tour ($100.00) and we got no intimate setting (I am in one of the big 3 market areas) and no download.
Therefore I will have to do for these whiners what their incompetent parents did not do…stop your fucking whining and off to bed with you and no dinner...even though they are grown, since they are not mature it may be possible to fix them…I am an optimist.
