Nyt myös edesmennyt Frank Zappa tekee paluun lavoille: hologrammikiertue ensi vuonna

Kirjoittanut Sanna Lehtonen - 22.9.2017

Hologrammikeikkoihin erikoistunut Eyellusion, jonka mahdollistama ”Dio Returns” -kiertue on piakkoin alkamassa, on ilmoittanut työskentelevänsä Zappa Family Trustin kanssa saadakseen syöpään vuonna 1993 menehtyneen, The Mothers of Invention -yhtyeen perustajana tunnetuksi tulleen Frank Zappan takaisin esiintymislavoille hologrammina ja antaakseen faneille mahdollisuuden kokea kyseisen muusikkolegendan konsertti livenä. Esityksien on tarkoitus alkaa ensi vuonna.

Zappa Family Trustin Ahmet Zappa kommentoi kiertuetta seuraavasti:

”I’m thrilled that Frank Zappa will finally be going back out on tour playing his most well-known music as well as some rare and unheard material. We can’t wait to bring his creative work back to the stage with the musicians he loved to play with, such as Steve Vai, Ian Underwood, Adrian Belew, Arthur Barrow, Vinnie Colaiuta, Scott Thunes, Mike Keneally, Denny Walley, Warren Cuccurullo and Napoleon Murphy Brock, among others, who are committed to being part of this epic endeavor. When I spoke with them, they were excited at the prospect of performing alongside Frank once again and can’t wait to give fans an unforgettable experience.”

”Also, how radical would it be to have Moon singing ’Valley Girl’ onstage with Frank? Or to see Dweezil side by side with our father playing dueling guitar solos? That would be my greatest wish and I look forward to bringing this special celebration of Frank’s legacy to a town near you. But if that wasn’t enough Zappa coolness, we’re also planning on staging ’Joe’s Garage The Musical’ with none other than Frank Zappa himself starring as the Central Scrutinizer.”
