[Zappa-List] Kona Brewing Company

2006-10-13 Thread Steve Marshall


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...

Steve

Nice story Steve,
Wasn't it in Hawaii somewhere that Frank *discovered* Nappy ?

Same restaurant par chance ?
On second thoughts probably not :-))

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)

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.

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.
