When I was young , dumb and full of cum I usually lost it somewhere during the Holidays and would throw my decorated Christmas tree out the front door onto the front lawn. It became a family tradition. No I had no children then but a temper was not missing. Trashing a perfectly good guitar I can’t do. Regardless how awful I may be. I need to reach 20,000 hours of practice as the first 10,000 has obviously been a huge waste of time and loss of hearing

He fronted a “Zappa tribute band” and they did Bongo Fury start to finish and then many of other killer Zappa that Napoleon was a part. Great show. Of course the real privilege was seeing FZ maybe ten times including several midnight Halloween shows at the iconic former NYC Palladium.Now I’m a huge Dweezil fan who’s doing his dad proud and frankly (pun intended) breathing new life and energy into many of his dad’s tunes and playing deep cuts you would rarely, if ever get to hear Frank play.

Whoever that was ....and with their simple encouragement I , and assuming many others, started sharing Palmisano react videos (I don't play guitar, or understand 97% of what he says, but I'm hooked regardless). By the power of the interwebs and that simple reminder, suggestion - plus of course some great, authentic, reaction videos .....and presumably great teaching/ Guitar Gate. Ten dollars a month, hard to go wrong. Congrats on 200K!. It's an inspirational reminder to see a tiny seed planted, can grow into, blossom into hugeness. It's a reminder that tiny steps, consistently taken, can bring about great progress:whatever the project, dream, idea.

So when Vai was in Zappas band from 80-82, he got to, I believe, pickup some neat little "cat's meow" tricks. Especially between 1980 and 1981, Zappa LOVED altering scales mid-solo, AND, ESPECIALLY, loved to work in Lydian-b3 ideas or Dorian-#4 scalar ideas throughout his solos. At 19-ish minutes, you and I light up, because it is a wonderful trick to use that can instantly and some spice to a solo if used tastefully. Zappa also REALLY enjoyed those straightforward "vanilla" grooves during solos PRECISELY so that he got to go wherever he wanted WHENEVER he wanted. He LOVED improvising something fresh EVERY night. Wonderful channel and video, sir, thank you!

Was one of the most memorable (of many) music experiences of my life. Such a super creative mind. He just plays whatever the hell he wants and he always makes it sound awesome.

Very enjoyable video. Thanks for posting. Vai isn't my style of music, but his playing is breathtaking.

You're right, but I like the dynamics of the live performance

David Dubinsky Vai’s solo was definitely incredible. The lead and backup vocals are less dynamic

And they say that Frank Zappa was NOT smart. He wrote this , every note and every drum hit and marimba bang. Fantastic music for sure. I have EVERY Zappa LP and listen to them often. Thanks for sharing.

Frank Zappa proved time and time again he could do anything he wanted musically, and it worked.

Great reaction video! I had a friend and neighbor, who during my PhD in biochemistry in the early 90ies, played Zappa constantly (and learned the guitar parts). A true miracle I finished that PhD successfully. Love Zappa music nevertheless.
