FRIDAY LOWDOWN: Zappa Fans Rejoice
The music of Frank Zappa is inarguably befuddling to most people, but for those who get it there can never be enough. We mention this because a flurry of virtuosically deployed notes will be propelled from the HumBrews stage Friday night by The Stinkfoot Orchestra, a 15-piece sound generation machine devoted to celebrating Zappa compositions. You have been informed/warned! Details on that and other Friday night delights in your Lowdown listings below.
