I didn't know of this performance, but my guess is Nicholas Slominski. <br>  Slominski joined FZ onstage during the 81 tour. Dec. 11, 1981 for a solo with the band, and is seen on several Zappa documentaries. I recall one interview where Slominski visited Zappa and he mentions how amazed he was at the piano Zappa had with an additional full lower octave set of keys.<br><br>is it SLOMINSKI??
