Last week I had a chance to chat it up with Mr. Dweezil Zappa, who is bringing his mini-orchestra to the Tower Theatre tonight to play some well-known hits from Frank’s enormous catalog. The show promises to be a dream set for hardcore Zappa fans, as well as those who just love extremely complicated music.

When I checked a few minutes ago, there were still a few tickets available on the Tower Theatre website. Also, check out the options for the VIP package…if you’re a VIP sort of person.

Here’s some video of Dweezil and company playing in 2007.
