A ringing in my ears

Thursday night was one of the best nights of my life. I got to see Dweezil Zappa perform the music of his father, Frank. To top that, Ray White, former guitarist and vocalist for Frank, was performing as well. I thought I would never get to see this concert in my lifetime. I got there early enough to be right at the stage but also right in front of the speakers. Needless to say, I still can’t hear very well. But I wouldn’t change it for anything. I had Scheila Gonzalez, the Sax/Keyboardist, Ray White and Dweezil right in front of me.

Dweezil played music from all over Frank’s catalouge. They even did a Joe’s Garage suite of about 5 songs from that album. They played for about 2 1/2 hours but it felt so quick. I wanted so much more but had such a good time. Even danced during the encore of I’m the Slime. Hell, I think the whole crowd was dancing then. To top off an already wonderful experience, Dweezil actually came off stage at the end and shook hands and signed autographs for people. Being at the front, I actually got to shake the hand of a god. I’m still riding the high from that night.
