This is my first day here but I had to come here after I saw the show in Tarrytown. Everything about the show was fantastic! Musicianship, interaction with audience, audio, etc. I didn't notice the fade of DZ guitar that other's noted.
I did not know what to really expect and was completely overwhelmed! (in a good way) I was impressed with the song choices and the way they were performed. Absolutely fantastic... they were tight (or at least appeared so) and yet had enough looseness to them to elevate them from good to great. I hope that makes sense to someone. Somewhat the difference between watching a robot walk and a person walk may be a decent analogy.
In any event, DZ, band and crew, I wish to thank you from the bottom of my heart for a show that stands out as one of my all time favorites and I have seen an awful lot of shows.
I'm not the greatest on details, so if it's ok, I totally agree with the Ambassador's review of "The Tarrytown Show". Also Thanks for posting in order, the song list. I saw another list that wasn't true.
The BAND is growing like it was hit with Radioactive Fallout. It's mutation has happened so quickly that I had my mouth fall open for the entire show.
I saw them one year ago and Ben was introduced as a new member that night too. Ben had little effect on that show, infact I thought he was a photographer for awhile. He did sing and played harmonica, but what a transformation on Saturday night. He's been putting some long hours in, closing in towards filling the gap of Napoleon Murphy Brock. Can I dare say that or will I be outcast?
My wife & I usually stick a wad of foam into our ears, but we both went without. No result of a hearing loss has occurred, WHHHAT! We sat in row M, right on the aisle, just under the balcony.
I once asked Dweezil, on-line, about seeing his father always tuning his guitar throughout his shows. He replied that Frank used a Peterson strobe to tune, because Frank recorded every show & always want…Read more

He replied that Frank used a Peterson strobe to tune, because Frank recorded every show & always wanted to be in tune. I can only hope that Dweezil does the same, so we could revisit that night any time we wanted to.
Ambassador, sorry to hear about "The Hat incident". I don't understand people alot of the times. For instants, during the entire show I watched people leaving their seat to either pee or buy more beer & then pee...People disrupting other people's night constantly. My wife & I stayed glued to our seats. Don't understand what alot of these folks came out for that night?
I'm still feeling the buzz from thier outstanding preformance Saturday night. How good it made me feel, every note registered & none were wasted.
Thank You Dweezil, Thank You Band. Take good care of each other. Thank You for the after the show cookies. You give so much of yourselves unlike anybody I've ever seen. We worry a little about you Dweezil & wish you LUCK & GOOD HEALTH.
Dweezil Zappa Plays Zappa.The Higher Ambient Domain. So much new material, improvisations, tonal palates, dancing, Unexpected Perfection. Yes it all sounds so familiar where some from outer worlds label my views with discord response of ideologies of cut and paste template programs but from April 2006 to what we are seeing today what's apparent is the collection of those who are in commune with this Ambassadors philosophy is a trend of ever growing proportions.
My daughter loved the show and remarkably to my pleasant surprise my wife who by this time is appreciating the music and performance so much more than she had on Halloween 2006.It is a matter of exposure. My buddy and his wife who flew up from from Florida also had a great time. The gal wearing a brimmed hat in front of my buddies wife made full stage viewing a bit difficult for her but some fail to see how their actions or apparel affect others. I am not a favorati kind of guy but this concert pushed the envelope where my entire being was pulled into the ideologies of labeling one particular concert such. Definitely up there with Frank Zappa Ritz, November 17, 1981. With tw…Read more

With two more shows in the next few days I know I will get a level or diversity where each of three shows I will be seeing have distinct room configuration that separate themselves to the extremes.
The PA seemed a tad small but Glynn did a excellent job getting a good sound with what he had to work with. We were second row center balcony and the PA system was geared more for orchestra. How I wish I could have this show on CD. Please let this tour get an official release. I proclaim this was the finest performance of Ms Pinky ever. Every note, the orchestration of the composition, and yes Joe Travers vocals was absolutely Nirvana. This is the best band I ever heard in my life. April 2006 moving forward. Thank you Dweezil Zappa!
Dweezil, I saw the four monitors for the guitar on stage near your guitars, but it seemed that it was only for show - we didnt hear them. It wasnt that your guitar was absent, but down in the mix that I could hear, since we were getting most of the sound from the stage and the not the house speaker racks. Just punch up those monitors for those of us lucky enough to be way close. Thanks for a great show and have a wonderful Dweezilla!
There were some solos that dz's guitar was difficult to hear, mostly in the last third of the show.
The blue light was fantastic-The sound you were getting out of that SG was awesome-and while I recognized the solo portion as being lifted from "inca roads/SUPYG" -I did not mind a bit that you played Inca Roads later in the show.
The highlight of the show for me was that Blue Light solo-just lovely.
Sheilas sax was strong and dweezil just ripped as usual.. inredible show. Loved the old Flo and Eddie " what kind of girl" Might head up to the Bearsville this week ..
great show, highlights, guitar solo during easy meat. Jamie's solo. yet, blue light and pick me I,m clean were a bit tame, not like tinseltown or any of the you tube pieces, still love vinnie colaiuta drum work on those pieces. all and all a great night, new songs. excelent see you all in bridgeport.
BONGIORNO, Westbury tickets are still available. I'm psyched. Literally five minutes from my house and not a bad seat in the place. This set list is amazing. I can't wait for Saturdsay!!
Terrific show seen from front row center. Kudos to Chris and Ben's trumpet was appreciated. Everyone played remarkably - all solos were spectacular (tonight Pete was on fire on Apostrophe, Jamie's solo in Advance Romance was also a standout). The downside of sitting in the front row is one doesnt get the whole house sound and where that really made a difference was in Dweezil's guitar - I am sure that the rest of the house heard it loud and clear but for those of us right in the front, without an amp and with Dweezil going direct into the house mix, the guitar was sometimes below the rest of the band. How about a monitor for your guitar facing the front? Again, it was a truly wonderful show and a great setlist from all periods of the master. See you in Westbury - sorry to miss Dweezilla, wasnt sure my broken wrist would have healed on time (it is all better now).
I put on my Python boots, tapped my heels together three times while saying,"Music is the best" with my eyes closed, and I am still not in Tarrytown tonight to see the greatest live act touring.. Have fun those who made it there...
Sexual Harrassment-Yo Mama and then anything you want in between! Sorry everyone, but I've got the best seats in the house. Dead center in front of the soundboard-Mouth of the Beast.

Yo Mama, and Advance Romance, Dweezil u keep gettin better 6th show since the Beacon. I'm comin to Woodstock and Bridgeport.
A GREAT SHOW!! YOU GUYS SOUND GREAT! LOVE THE EFFECTS ON DWEEZILS GUITAR!!THANKS FOR A GREAT NIGHT!!
GMBG, Sorry you couldn't hear the guitar. I do have monitors on stage on this tour that are facing the audience. There are four speakers on stage.
I have them fairly loud too. I'll look into it more.
Ah, the return of Ms. Pinky!
Sheilas sax was strong and dweezil just ripped as usual.. inredible show. Loved the old Flo and Eddie " what kind of girl" Might head up to the Bearsville this week ..

Amazing show. It just keeps getting better. Thank you Dweezil, you guys put all you have into each show. And we appreciate it.
bummed I missed this one right here in my backyard
Soundcheck party 4:30pm
I put on my Python boots, tapped my heels together three times while saying,"Music is the best" with my eyes closed, and I am still not in Tarrytown tonight to see the greatest live act touring.. Have fun those who made it there...
Sexual Harrassment-Yo Mama and then anything you want in between! Sorry everyone, but I've got the best seats in the house. Dead center in front of the soundboard-Mouth of the Beast.
Hi all, I'm still looking to upgrade my ticket (I'm going solo) if anyone has anything to sell in the first couple of rows, center!
My son and I will be in row A 105-106 if you want to say hi
