Did you attend this show at Le Fri-Son in Fribourg?

Dweezil and the band would love to read your reviews.

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

ray, what a voice, thanks to came after the show down from the stage to gave autogramms, thanks to bring out scheila after the show.

joe, he gots the beats, fantastic drumming.

pete

aaron, sad the stage was so smal you where way back, but great keys trumpet AND thiny little voice's

billy, nice marimba and mallets solo, fantastic work

jamie, nice cute guitarplayer on the right side, also some great solo's


i shake hands and talk with 3 off my 4 favorit musican off ZpZ:

scheila, you are fantastic
joe, the man with the hands on FZ tapes
ray, a man with still a fantastic voice
dweezil did get out, but i girl from the managment? (THANK YOU VERY MUCH) got my programm and let it signed bi dweezil

also i meet elmar (this was his 10th ZpZ concert) and e few guys from basel.

PS:
in the show i ask DZ "what about the roxy-DVD", he aswered: "we got problem to get the right mix betwin audience und band and it tack a long time" but we see "cosmic debris" on screen, so PLEASE bring out this dvd.

PS PS:
i was the quy with the red "porn wars" t-shirt, a souvenier from the 1980 show by FZ in zürich

PS PS PS:
GZ, i understand your talking about coverbands in the programm to ZpZ BUT, coverbands bring out the music of FZ all over the world and tell younger people (people witch never saw FZ live) the genius of his music.
thanks to all the work you and DZ and the familiy do for the ZFT and PLEASE bring out that ROXY-DVD

Hi There,
i attented one of the last show of Frank in Zurich in something around 1987 (i was 17-18y/o).

It was great to redive into Frank's Music, specially to hear the Great Ray, he make's really the joint to remember.

One thing which disturbed me a little was when Dweezil was playing with the video, it emphasized my feeling like somebody was missing..

Great to keep frank's music alive... and great show, i really enjoyed.

And.. it make me re-listen all my zappa collection again which was sleeping from year. Youhouhou.

PS: for those who are in the Basel area (nord west switzerland), two good friends of me, hardcore fan of FZ will be djiing a Strictly FZ only night in a small club called Sas in Delémont in December, check the club's website for further information. And see you maybe there.
