""Other than Napi, who is always great, NONE of those people would have
passed a Frank Zappa audition. Joe Travers, who I like personally, is like
the Alan White of the Zappa community - he plays the songs correctly, but
hardly RIGHT. The keyboardists were mediocre at best, the bassist was in
over his head, and the second guitarist basically spent the night playing
circles around Dweezil - which NEVER happened with Frank. Dweezil, for his
part, exhibited almost no charisma on stage, and looked and acted a good
deal like Steve Carell from The Office - constantly talking to the monitor
guy (at both shows I understand) with such gems as "more snare and kick in
the left stage monitors." In addition, he thought it expedient to take jabs
at other Zappa acts to start the show. Very unprofessional on both counts.
The songs were all too SLOW (totally un-Zappa, that), the set list unispired
(there is a reason Imaginary Diseases was never released) and, with the
exception of the Nanook Suite (which was actually really good), almost
everything was dumbed down in one way or another.""

Hey, these words are Paul Green's (from the Zappa Forum) - NOT the
Idiot Bastard's.
