Tribute to Frank Zappa in September
Written by admin on July 27, 2010 – 8:43 pm -A tribute to native son Frank Zappa is planned in Baltimore on September 19, which will include a performance by his son Dweezil’s band, Zappa Plays Zappa, and the unveiling of a bust of the late star.
The bust will be placed at the Enoch Pratt Free Library’s Southeast Anchor in the Highlandtown neighborhood. |
There are also plans for a number of Zappa-related events to be held at the library and nearby Patterson Theatre on the day, including a library exhibit, symposiums, and a party taking place after the dedication and concert.
The event is being planned by Clearpath Entertainment, whose spokesman David Christensen said:
“Frank Zappa’s musical genius and influence is undeniable and it has always been a must for us that Dweezil headline this show in the ultimate tribute to his father. This is going to be Zappa Plays Zappa, next to Zappa’s statue, on a street dedicated Zappa Way, on Zappa Day; it couldn’t be more fitting.” |
