The Slots Are Callin...

Hello from Atlantic City. We're four shows from the end of the tour, and it's been quite a whirlwind. Montreal was a particularly responsive crowd, apparently that show sold out in 2 minutes! Check out the ZPZ website for pics taken by the great Mike Mesker and for blog entries from myself and other band members. We're all having so much fun still, I can't believe that Tuesday is our last show until December. But what a show that's gonna be, NYC on Halloween with 6,000 crazed Zappaphiles... Anyway, I'm off to try to stay away from any extreme gambling. Wish me luck!

Back to the Utility Muffin Research Kitchen

So, after a much needed vacation in Hawaii it's time to get back to work with Zappa Plays Zappa! We've been in rehearsals with the core band about a week and today Napoleon rejoined us, and it's like we never stopped playing. The new songs are already coming together, Napoleon manages to sound great on both the songs he originally recorded with Frank and the ones that had different vocalists. And everybody else's playing and singing in the band still blow my mind, I can't wait to get back on the road. Check out the Upcoming Shows link to the right to see all the dates for the rest of the year.

Also, I'll be at the Baked Potato here in LA again tonight and next Monday night with Jaime Kime from ZPZ and some other sick players, so if you're around come check it out.
