Scott Thunes tells his truth

“I’ve heard so many things about the ’88 Tour that I’m completely confused by it, especially since the only person who was actually there that you can find on line is Kenneally. His site has so many answers, and yet, it creates so many more questions…”
Scott Thunes explains how the ’88 band was dismantled after a huge tour in Europe. Actually what i mostly liked from his site was his way to tell: “I’m not gay!” after so many years…:-)

Handz up!

Ok, Barry, since you’ve been feeling better after that jacuzzi session…
it’s time for thinking on some rehabilitation now: try these finger exercises that will make your fingers stretch very soon (enjoy also the wonderful music!); for a temporary typing tool, you may use the versatile Surprising Arm. Just in case you are tight with money here’s a simple yet fabulous Fake Crafty Hand, ideal to have a big time these cold winter afternoons while making it. Don’t have to thank us. Enjoy! (NP: I wanna Hold Your Hand)

News from the boss…

Barry is expected to be offline next days, kids.
Yesterday evening when driving to a rehearsal with his band, he had a car accident (i’m not kidding, as shocking as it sounds). He sez nothing to worry tho’, he has “a bruised forehead and my right pulse is broken
so they put my right arm in a plaster cast”, in his own words. He could hardly e-mail me cos he sez his type is terribly slow; plus, it’s his *right* arm the one that has to be plaster-castered. So: he is pretty much unable to even untie shoes…
These are the news for now. I’ll keep you posted.
Oh, and Barry, if you are able to see this: take very much care, thoughts are with you; we’ll keep the office clean -or dirty, if you prefer-, until you come back (no i won’t put any Rod Stewart cassette, don’t worry :-) Hope to see you here soon..! Take care!

December 4, 1993

I remember the article in the newspaper (must have been on sunday), an obituary mentioning Zappa’s satire and career, the picture of Frank looking grey haired, with a tired glance; yet, smiling. WHAT..? How come..? But…he was still so young… that illness… Oh shit.
We were on holidays in the beach (december is summer in the south hemisphere). I took this picture of my son that very same day. It was like if the weather reflected states of mind: sunbeams around us, making the sea fluorescent green, and a stormy dense, heavy sky in the background. A zappian athmosphere.
It was a sad day.
