Did you attend the ZPZ show at Kulturbolaget in Malmo?

Dweezil and the band love reading your reviews.

Please do not post in this thread if you did not attend the show.

Hi!

I'm the girl who stood right in front of the stage in a white T-shirt last night. I want to say thank you for the most amazing concert I've ever been to! You probably saw me smiling throughout the concert. What only had even more joy was the eyes of you when performing. That goes especially for Dweezil, Sheila and Ben! No wonder you create magic!

Just a note on how your music lives on I would like to tell you that on the music high school program I attend we've played Peaches En Regalia with a 30 man band. I played the mandolin on that song then. It was really fun and challenging! My brother also attend the music program and they've done The Black Page !!!

Dad's been a huge fan since the mid-70's of your music and I understand why now.

A big Thank you all from me, my brother and my father for an extraordinary evening! Please come to Gothenburg next time.

I'm the guy who stood next to the girl in white Tee :-)

I shook Dweezil's hand after the sound check, and rather lamely told him that the show in Copenhagen was great (or something like that). I stood about 1 meter away from Dweezil throughout the show, and had a *very* close view of his amazing guitar play. Did I say amazing? Perhaps awesome is more appropriate.

At any rate - great concert. I was close enough to see the set list in Malmø (as opposed to in Copenhagen) and I must admit that not knowing what's next is better. Each song is a gift regardless, but I prefer the surprise gifts if you know what I mean.

After seeing this two nights in a row, I am experiencing something like a heartache. I will miss you guys, come back soon please.

Thanks for an amazing evening!
If I remember it right, it was 40 years ago, since I attended my first Zappa concert. It was in Gothenburg in -68 or 69. During the 70-ties and early 80-ties I never missed a concert. Now it has all started again, and I am very satisfied that You, Dweezil, started it up again. The concert in Lund, a year and a half ago was good. Yesterday was amazing! I thought I'd miss Ray, but I didn't and Sheila was truly incredible. How many instruments does that girl play? at the same time. I will be there again next time, whenever it will be, hopefully soon.

Thank you for a fantastic afternoon and evening!!!!

This was my 3rd ZPZ show and what a show it was, alot more intimate than the ones I´ve experienced before which puts it right up there with Copenhagen one back in -06. It makes me all warm inside that Frank´s music is still performed on stage and it feels every bit as fresh as it did when I heard it live in the 70's. Kudos to you for bringing Ben on stage, what a great addition to the line-up!

Thanx again,
Anders

Thanks Dweezil and the whole band for a great show.

I never thought i'd have the opportunity to see you on such a small, intimate stage. I was not more than 4 meters from the stage the whole concert. That really gave the show an extra dimension for us who were lucky to be there. I were at the concert in Lund for a little more than a year ago and it's a completely different experience. The band sounds tighter and your new singer, Ben Thomas, is doing such a great job. His rock/soul/blues feeling and attitude completes my feeling that you all are ready to shape your own versions of the songs. Not only copying. And I like it a lot. The same goes for DZs guitarplay - it's not "only" technically brilliant. It has got more "body" and personal touch now and I'm sure that I'll hold you as an equal to Frank soon. Very soon :-)

Do I need to mention that the whole band is brilliant? Well, I'll do it anyway... You gave me goosebumps for two hours.

So, thanks again for an extraordinary experience at KB in Malmö.
I hope to see you soon again. Hopefully on a smaller stage again.

Stefan

Hi!

I saw the concert in both Copenhagen yesterday and in malmoe. It seemed to me that the place in malmoe was to hot for the band and they looked a little bit tired. And I dont know if it was the heat or the tuff schedule. But the sound and the performance was anyway exciting and well played. There were a great moment and it´s nice when the band is near the audience.
I think Frank is looking down from heaven and just enjoy and be proud of his son and the the hole band. I just can wait until you come back next time.
Thankyou Sheila and Joe for the autograf when you arrived to the bus and of course for you Dweezil who had the kindness and stay after the show and sign all the autograf and talk to the people. I think you also . and me to, enjoy everytime a young person begin to like your fathers music.
Anyway. many thousand thanks to the hole band and I really wishes you luck and strenght to go on with the music so you can come back and play for us again!!
Grat Googely Moogely!!

Leo from Malmö!
