Isn’t that crazy? The last concert I went to was to see the Steve Miller Band play at Kalamazoo Arena in 1993! And then Chris and I got married and started working our jobs and then I got pregnant, and money for things like concerts was always on the bottom of the priority list. But when I saw the lineup for this summer’s Common Ground festival, which is held every year here in Lansing, I saw a show listed that I just had to buy tickets for, no matter what. No, not Madonna Tickets, she would never come to Lansing, Michigan! lol
We are going to see “Zappa Plays Zappa”. Chris has been a Frank Zappa fan since he was a Freshman in High School, he owns almost every FZ album which is a LOT, and now he has Ryan and Nathan listening to it as well. He went to three Zappa shows and still talks about how amazing they were. Frank passed away a few years ago, but his son Dweezil Zappa is touring now, playing his Dad’s songs. It was an opportunity that I just couldn’t pass up, I know how much the show will mean to Chris. Sometimes, you have to move things up to the top of the priority list because doing so will mean doing something really special for the person you love.

I’ve seen that show and it is AWESOME! Amazing musicianship and performances. Yes, some of the music is can be a little inaccessible for the non-musician, but you can’t help but appreciate the complexity of the arrangements and the skill of the players.

My dad had a Frank Zappa album and I loved “Valley Girl.” Now I have it in my head, thank you very much. Like, gag me with a spoon.
