Anyone remember the "Zappa in the Cappa" Tour?
I think it was '79. He played the Providence Civic Center.
No, only in Boston ... either the Music Hall or the Orpheum .. I never paid attention to tour names .. My first Zappa album was Filmore East 1971 .. So I was pretty excited when I got tickets to my first Zappa show . I went planning on seeing Flo and Eddy only to see Frank leading a 57 piece orchestra (Waka Ja Waka) . To tell you the truth I was dissapointed . I don't think he even picked up his guitar ? He just waved a baton .. I soon learned, what ever album you were listening to, Frank had moved on and the band was totally different at the live shows as was the music . I saw some really great shows . I feel the loss when seeing ZPZ .. Never thought I'd hear that stuff again .
Nobody says it like Ruth
