  1. Really nice! Thanks! Who’s the band? The tape? Or a lve band? I didn’t have time to listen too carefully to that. Rushing to see Dweezil within 2 hours…

  2. There seems to be a real PLETHORA of Zappa video and audio poppin’ up on the net these days!

    Hey!!! ABONDANZA!!!!

  3. I saw that when it aired – not because Frank was on (which was a pleasant surprise) but because I used to watch the Mike Douglas Show… And his band was very tight – much like Paul Schaffer & Co. on Letterman.

    **Funny things you notice when it’s late, and you’ve been chugging Merlot:
    Didja notice the background scenery when FZ played? I thought it was the famous moustache until the camera panned back and I noticed it was the E of Mike’s name sideways.
    My first reaction: Ooooh, Gail’s gonna sue…

  4. Isn’t there another part where Mike asks about Dweezil and his name specifically, and if the name affected him? Frank said “Dweezil wouldn’t take any caacaa from you.”
    Or is that another show from the same period? Fond memory for me
