[Zappa-List] Kona Brewing Company
Just got back from 10 amazing days in Hawaii and had to pass this along to everyone. We checked out this place called the Kona Brewing Company on the big island for dinner one night. As we're walking in the door, I hear something that sound strangely familiar. I couldn't quite place it at first (probably cuz I NEVER thought I'd hear this being played in a restaurant), and then I hear I get so tired of sneaking around, trying to get to your back door They were playing the studio version of My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Mama! THEN - Dirty Love! Then (talk about a **complete** buzzkill), they followed that with 2 songs (1 each) from Steve Perry Journey. Then they redeemed themselves with a couple from Pink Floyd - Run Like Hell and Dogs (yes - the complete song), 2 from The Who (My Generation and The Punk The Godfather), a couple from BTO, a couple from the Doors. When's the last time you heard FZ being played in a restaurant This was a first for me! Oh, and btw, great food, great brew too! It's the only restaurant we went to twice while we were there...

Re: [Zappa-List] Kona Brewing Company
I thought I read somewhere that it was in the Honolulu Airport Lounge... Or maybe it was another airport lounge, and Nappy turned him down at first because his band was booked for a gig in Honolulu... Milhouse?

My recollection was that FZ "discovered" NMB singing in some kind of lounge band, yes.. Let's find out... http://www.united-mutations.com/b/napoleon_murphy_brock.htmsez... Frank Discovered Napoleon Murphy Brock in a Hawaiian nightclub leading a top 40 soul band. from: jon naurin i've read somewhere that zappa found napoleon on a short vacation to hawaii. brock supposedly played in a local cover band, and fz was fascinated by his singing and his stage personality (and so am i!) jon naurin writes:i found the actual quote, from new musical express, 5-oct 1974:napoleon murphy brock? who, you may well be asking, is napoleon murphy brock? get this, nmb is the black guy over there with the saxophone and the flute and the moustache. he is the mothers' latest lead singer, and frank discovered him in a hawaiian nightclub leading a top 40 soul band. at the end of the set, napoleon was summoned to the presence.'i said, "who is frank zappa?" they told me he was the leader of the mothers. i said, "oh, right. he's the guy who has his picture taken sittin' on the toilet.'"so frank told napoleon that he'd like him to join the mothers and leave the following week on a european tour. napoleon turned him down because he and his group had been booked into the nightclub for another seven weeks and told zappa to call him when he got back. he ended up joining the band, playing sax and singing backup on 'apostrophe' and graduating to lead singer of the touring band.(writer unknown) __._,_.___ For further Z-related fun, please visit http://www.thebignote.com or http://www.killuglyradio.com , thank you.

I recieved this earlier this week and I am ready to pass it on. I believe that this is the latest list . PLEASE correct me if I am wrong. So John K in the US please send me you address. Greg H US (bonarue@) John K US John G in Kansas (croontoonz1950@) Joe.DP - US [EMAIL PROTECTED] US Richarde Moore - UK Guy Gonzo US R2 - FIN r2daft2 - UK Also I recently got the 2 DVD vine of the instant bootleg collection # 1 2. It took a long time to get to the USA from Australia but it also came with US customs tape on it and appears to have been opened and inspected. I like to imagine the officer desperately searching for a good flac player for his sad little government issued computer so he could listen to the dangerous music. I don't think that there was anyone behind me on this so it is ready to revine.
