    Zappa: You Can't Do That Onstage Anymore, Vol 2

    I run hot on cold when it comes to Frank, whose "humor" I often find obnoxious. But man, the band on this gig? Unbelievable.

    And some of jokes are actually funny!

    Good, but maybe a step off the previous few?

    Excellent show

    I was a little "ugh-y" at the last two tracks of set 2 (can you guess which two I am refering to?) but I accepted and moved on quickly

    Onward to 9/16/90

    Were not bad at all.
    The building was electric…what would happen? Would they suck, lots of apprehension etc. But after they started playing the whole building seemed to breath this ubiquitous sigh of relief, and yes, this will be different, but it’s gonna be alright!
    Definitely check them out! Yeah Jonathan, I think they tried to do well on the tour because of the situation. I’ve not heard all of fall 90, but what I’ve heard I’ve enjoyed! Reminds me to hit that RT that I’ve only recently received. Good Sheet Mon!

    quick turnaround

    Fall 1990 is an absolute testament to the bands talent. Also a reality check as far as being prepared for crisis. I can't imagine the excitement/terror running through Vince Welnick veins when the house lights went down on 9/7/90

    I believe the boys, including Vince and soon Bruce, played their asses off for the fans and themselves! Resulting in a damn fine tour.

    Re GD September 1990

    Think about the quick turnaround

    Brent dies on July 26

    GD play next show only 43 days later

    That's extremely remarkable

    I have never heard 9/7 nor 9/8

    None of Philly

    Gotta check out 9 7 and 8 for historical purposes at least

TN John - very cool! (a bc bday show not that I was there.) my FOTDs box set is crossing the Great Basin right now (i think) based on tracking. Hopefully by Tuesday next week.

6/14/94 - iwt and got here listening today via a circuitous route of JOTM (from 3/11/93 Rosemont) drive home last night which has a late period Masterpiece and this morning (gestures wildly) somehow saw the set list here and thinking "wow" I saw a Masterpiece in 94. And from there Set I etc. Very unusual set list Set II and a really fun and fine well played show. Posting now because Set II leads off with 45 second structured drumz intro to Victim and it caught my ears as something I had "never" heard (despite being there!) Victim into Lazy River Road. And then the second Samba In The Rain, which I will unabashedly say sounded great that night, totally new to me, and strong cool memory of Phil/Bob/Jerry/Vince singing the chorus and it rocked. Samba > Trucking > and a super chill That Would Be Something into drumz. Those late era shows in Seattle Memorial Coliseum kicked it.
