A few notes of interest.
Everyone seemed relaxed and truly enjoying themselves on stage as this show closed out the first leg of the 2007 tour.
To Dweezil’s (and everyone’s) bewilderment one bone spur in the pit kept yelling out “James Brown!” The meaning of this finally occurred to Ray who laughed and went over to Dweezil and explained he must mean “Bobby Brown.”
Dweezil cracked the band up (especially Pete) at the end of America Drinks when he said, "Hey Trixie, why don't you stop being such a whore..."
What’s new in Baltimore? Frank Zappa day, should happen every year.
When everyone took their place in the Dupree’s Paradise variations spotlight, Jamie “The Shocker” Kime ripped out a thrilling guitar solo. Scheila again mastered multiple sax.
Billy gave a couple members of the crew and Ray a turn at playing the gong during Muffin Man.
Mikey was on hand to shoot stills, hopefully they will appear on the site.


Thanks to Dweezil and the band for keeping Frank’s music alive! It doesn’t come any better than this.

Oh, from the guy in the hawaiian shirt to the ear doc... drop us a message, curious what your db meter read during that Pygmy Twylyte solo. woweeeee.
