This, my friends, is the crux of the bisquit. Or however that's supposed to be spelled.

Agreed. It would be nice if Dweezil would just say as much though.

Seen it. I sorta understand why he was so cross now, if he really had to sell equipment in order to pay the lawsuit that's horrible. Still no excuse for taking it out on the fans though.

After seeing that I really want to give him some slack. I went through a similar thing six years ago (divorce, 2 kids, financial ruin, etc.). Divorce can really suck.

It's nothing new, just more detail. 3 years is just too long. Divorce or not. You make a promise, you gotta keep it and not cry about it. He's got a lot of nerve dissing folks who complain.

For a nominal service charge I can verify that...

Having heard what can be done with recordings by the ZFT, I am very willing to wait for these downloads to come through. I like DZ's playing a lot, there were moments of his solos in the 2008 show that sounded gorgeous. He's no FZ, but nobody is or ever will be. FZ had his very own guitar playing style and I don't see DZ trying to emulate it or just copy it, but he's celebrating his fathers music and we all get to benefit from it. I'll never forget the first ZPZ show I saw in Seattle. Hearing "Andy" being played was a very emotional experience for me. Such a beautiful song, such passionate playing by all the band members. DZ's guitar solos have matured since then too. I missed the most recent RTF show in Seattle due to an illness but won't miss the next one, whenever he decides to trek up here again.

Had a interesting conversation with DZ after the Sacramento show last Saturday night and the bottom line was that I looked deep into his eyes and said I am still waiting for MY downloads.

To which he replied?

Well, he said nothing except " Oh you are the guy who has been not so nice to me on my website DZW and I am glad you have been taking a nicer tone" and I have been nicer since I do love the music of FZ and the ZPZ band just keeps getting better.

The download scrutinizer is back ! Time to bump this back to the top.

And still, nobody is suing Dweezil's pants off.

I think this is pretty obvious ... and I wonder if there is an issue here ... Gail and the Trust do not allow other folks to do or play Zappa and she tries to close down as many as they can ... the weird thing about the "downloads" of ZPZ is this ... guess what ... the music is not his! It's mom's or the trust's music at this point!

And it would mean that the amount he can make from it, is cut in half ... and it might be better if it did not get done and prevent a family fight! Gail needs Dweezil right now. Dweezil can not do it on his own, because of his father! He's just a son, and not as good a creative mind ... as you can tell he is more concerned with his dexterity than he is with the music itself ... and if he is but learning it all ... at your expense and mine ... under the guise of Frank's music, then it is wrong! And he knows it!

The only thing I don't think that we should be greedy about is ... draining the life force as if we were/are vampires. I really think that it is unfair for us to demand him to bend over so we can kick his butt (and whatever else!) simply because it is what we want ... we want the downloads and fuck him?

I really think that the "demand" is unfair and inapropriate ... and you are expecting to have a convversation with someone ... you blew the conversation, and you could have learned a lot more about the whole situation!
