HEEEYYYYY!!

Anyway, why do black people pretty much only smoke menthol cigarettes? Don’t fat people know they shouldn’t wear horizontal stripes?

They never really explain how The Beaver got his nickname. Today, he's exploiting the water outage in the middle of summer by selling water to the other kids. Now they're all pissed at him.

Hey Zappagirl,how's life been treating you? Been to any good concerts lately?

Hey KK! Life has been very good for me, ty!

As a matter of fact, I have seen three really great concerts recently at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. It is a very cool and unique looking building from the outside (I’m lucky enough to get to stare at it out of my office window!), but it is by far the best sounding venue I have ever been to, incredible sound.



First, we saw Trey Anastasio play with the LA Philharmonic. Great show and about a quarter of the way into the show, Trey commented that the Disney was the best sounding venue he’s ever played.

Then I saw Willie Nelson which was cool, I’ve never seen him before.

And the best was last – we saw Paco De Lucia. If you’ve never heard of him and have any interest in flamenco guitar, I highly, highly recommend checking him out. It was one of the best shows I’ve seen – ever. This is one of my favorite videos.

Sorry I took so long to answer Zappagirl,I was watching a SF Giants game,they won! The look of the Disney place is trippy and I bet the sounds great! When professional musicians like it,you know its good.We get the same compliments at The Mondavi Center,here in Davis.This summer it seems alot of Brazilian percussionist,guitarist and composers are touring norte California en masse.
As for me I took off on a trekk,went to SF for a Giants game and ended up at Pescadero Beach watching the total eclipse of the sun and camping in the Santa Cruz Mtns under the coastal redwoods.It was most relaxing and fun.On the way back I went to SF, the lower Haight and got Vaporized.For real! There's a thread about it here somewhere.So in other words I've been having fun and it sounds like you are too.The only thing missing is some Zappa music,whether it's DZpZ or The Grandemothers or Pojama People or Mike or Adrian....yo Adrian! You listening? I hope we get some live Zappa music before the end of the year or I'm gonna pick up a guitar and get a cease and desist order from the ZFT,CIA,FBI,NBC and the BBC!

Thats my city! Would you,Zappagirl,like to catch a Giants game? Even though the Dodgers s***k,I'd make an exception for another Zappafreak! My treat,of course.

BTW.Anyone coming to SF is invited to a Giants game,so no one needs to be jealous.

Hey Z-Girl I'm down in your neck of the woods, I am staying at my daughters in Long Beach, theres no place like home...

KK - Ha, wouldn't you know it, I just checked out the Giants schedule and they will be in LA playing the Angels when I'm there!




Plook - I was just down by Long Beach yesterday for my admin's baby shower.

Hey Zappagirl,maybe you and Plook could see show or concert. (he's safe,great fun and I know his wife )
When your up here in SF,and want to know where it's hip to go for food,fun,or entertainment,PM me and depending on where you are in SF,I'm sure I can suggest a fun place for you to enjoy music/comedy/theater or a great place to eat.SF is the cultural billabong of the world.When your thirsty for intellectual stimuli,you drink from our wealth of knowledge and wisdom that is San Francisco....The Golden Gate to the Golden State! The GG Bridge is 75 this year,the Presidio has an exibit that's well worth seeing and there's always something happening at FT.Mason or GG Park.Have fun and enjoy your stay!

(there's always The Vapor Room,on Haight,if your so inclined)

Oh, I AM inclinded! Unfortunately, I am travelling with one of my employee's so probably best to keep some things secret.

Also, unfortunately, I'm not going to have any time to get out of downtown this time. Work, work, work!!

If your downtown,check out The Warfield Theater on Market St. It's between the downtown entrance to BART and the Civic Center entrance.Only a few blocks from the downtown,financial district.That's where DZpZ usually plays when in SF,so do alot of other great acts!

You can also grab on to a cable car downtown and it'll bring you right back to where you boarded after some spectacular views/ scenery of the whole Bay Area!

Your also close to Chinatown & The Playboy Club.Lots to do anywhere in SF.Enjoy! LoL

If you want to play your bongos in the dirt,I hear (from a local sourceror) all the hippies moved over to the Mission District!

I saw the video of De Lucia with McLaughlin and Di Meola. Great great player. I tire of that music fast but it's obvious he's one of the best.
