Zappa
Plays Zappa, the Ghent concert.
There's
nothing like a fine concert to start the weekend.
Last
Friday, the Dweezil Zappa Plays Zappa band landed at 'De Vooruit' in Ghent. The
only disadvantage of a Friday concert is that the biggest part of Belgium turns
into one gigantic traffic jam every Friday. We knew, so we arrived well in
advance.
As for
the concert, it was great. The band played for almost three hours (not counting the
20-minute break). They started with the complete "Roxy" album and
continued with a bunch of great songs, including the fabulous 'I Come From
Nowhere'.
The
band seemed very relaxed and it showed in the performance. One word: fabulous.
Did I mention that there was some audience participation as well? People on
stage, dancing to the Be-Bop Tango.
I loved it.
