Great to hear that Ray White is joining this leg of the ZPZ Tour.
Replacing Napoleon Murphy Brock who I met at a “Ed Palmero Big Band” gig in NYC back in December ‘06. Napoleon told me he just signed up for 100 more shows. So what happened? Brock, Bozzio & Vai have a way stealing a show. Maybe Dweezil wants to keep the spotlight on the music, not the musicians. A thought.

I’ll buy you a beer UniMuta! :)
Will you be going to the Tilburg and Amsterdam venues as well?

013 (tilburg), koningin elisabeth hall (antwerp) and even melkweg (amsterdam) are relative small venues. But then, without Vai and Bozzio, the audience will probably be a bit smaller too.
The sound in the koningin elisabeth hall is as good as it can get. so you shouldn’t worry about that.

see you there

Hmm, Yellow Shark songs. I presume these won’t be Dog Breath, Pound For A Brown etc. I don’t know of any other ‘rock’ group who’ve performed the orchestral material, it’s normally the other way around - orchestral groups performing rock (or synclavier) material.

Here’s the secret:
“Joining the tour this year is Ray White, the vocalist who toured and recorded with Frank Zappa during the period of such albums as Tinsel Town Rebellion, You Are What You Is and Zappa in New York (his is the lead vocal on the song “The Illinois Enema Bandit”).”
.
Wooowwww!!! FAN-TAS-TIC!!!

I just got word of the new surprise guest for this ZPZ tour from a man on the inside….unfortunately, I’d lose all my cred if I spilt the beans so mums the word!

Lame hint: It’s an awesome singer from Zappa past!

Don’t quote me on it, but judging from the previous Euro-ZPZ tour schedule, the above list is most probably conclusive…

Balint: get yer ass on Skype, will ya! :)
