It's off-duty once more... been trying to log in all day, finally managed to do so, and right after sending a post it's out of the air again.

If zappa goes down there is still a good alternative

a newsletter?
this time the message is different
'the board is unavailable, try again later'
last night I spent a lot of time on there and they had removed a bunch of posts from Andre C (the leader of project/object), and even parts of posts
by others that referred to him or that conversation about the shutting down of KUR.
and today's fz's birthday. ya know I haven't been to the site, just checked on the forum,

yaa I thought I'd been banned for having a whinge about Gail on that thread
I didn't mention P/O..but was talking about cover band policy
I suppose the posting of the documents was a bit much for Gail
Can't blame her for pulling them really

oh, whatever, maybe all of it means there are changes afoot. I checked too and the only zappa you can't email right now, is gail. you pass your
mouse over it and it says 'soon'. and there is a new page up for that as well.
. . .
I'm listening to zappa radio anyway and they've added a few things today.
-- there is a new intro every time you play the stream
-- there are a bunch of new songs, from what I can tell
-- several new 'station ID' snippets of Mathilde, Moon, Zola, Dweezil
y'know Bonny, I wouldn't worry about what you're doing here at packard goose. Not that ya were anyway

It's gail@zappa.com. Mailed her twice, never had a response. I wonder what is going on inside her brain. Life is getting pretty tough for the
Zapheads, seems like it.
I've read the post by Andre_C. I did it was uncalled for, he was unnecessarily rude. But hey, it's the Internet. I've been getting a lot of shit over
me since I first came to it. No reason to be too upset about it. It's a place where anonimity rules.
Speaking of which, I'm a 36-year-old guy from England. I just use a pic from a porn magazine as avatar.

I agree that Andre was a little over the top and was afraid that the whole forum was about to suffer because of an outspoken few. I like Andre and his
band but think he let his emotions get the better side of him.
Oh yeah, I'm actually the Pope.

It is not Gail who made ZPZ a succes.
That were all the fans together.
Her son is making money but only thanks to them, empty concert rooms wil not bring in any recette
That fans are still interested is by their exchanging of music and stories.

yeah, you'd think that were so. But Gail asserts that it is the music, not anything else at all that brings them in and keeps them interested.

Problem is that she can think what she likes if the trust owns the rights, in cord they always be succesful. For us, the only thing remaining is
hoping for a new Zappa era as she `chooses` for the eternal life.

Uhhh... doubt that... there's Dweezil who'll take over by then... and he doesn't seem to be any more lenient.

I doubt that.
Dweezil can play zappa music and being a zappa too.
Gail has only memories
But is is off topic to speak about Zappa in the chit chat
