Odd you say that, only yesterday I had the idea of a Zappa monopoly! |
That does sound very interesting and could be ...hey,alot of fun! Get your shoe's and socks on people,it's right around the corner from Park Place/Log
Cabin/Santa Monica's Boardwalk etc.
By jove I think it could happen here! LOL

Frank Zappa does have the monopoly on being Zappa.
Posthumously of course, I haven't got my tenses mixed up, that monopoly continues to reign.
And, with all due respect to the other "Zappas" of course.

I don't want to step on any of the Zappa's Freakin' Toes or break up THEY'RE MONOPOLY,but we could
just use flake names and make it up as we go.
I'll roll the dice........got a six.Landed at the Olive Green Hotel.I own it.Mwahahaha!
to the Olive Green Hotel! Today I'm thinking of buying
the Montana Rail Road.

What streets would you include in Zappopoly? Streets mentioned in FZ-songs: could you find 40 of them? Album titles and track numbers?

Sunset Blvd. comes to mind.I don't think I could come up with 40 off the top of my head.I'd have to go through the whole FZ catalog to find 10 much
less 40.Laurel Canyon and Sunset Blvd. where from one song.Plastic People.Short answer,I don't know.Good question,now I'm curious...skeptical but
curious.How many streets in FZ's songs? Alot of towns & places,real and imagined,are more likely to reach 40.Go with hotels he's got 200 of them!
LOL!

I like kiirk's suggestion of places, for sure:
hahhahahahaaa
Canarsie
Sun Village
the Whiskey
the filmore east
the mudd club
concertgeboew even
or The Ahoy in Rotterdam
Montreaux
the roxy
Montana
The North
I think Cantor's has to be there
or that drum shop in San Diego
Edward's Air Force Base
Howard Johnson's and Holiday Inn's can act like the utilities
The Log Cabin could be Go or The Utility Muffin Research Kitchen
a luxury or poor tax could be Montreaux where they lose their instruments in a fire or where they lose their manager and all the cash on hand on
tour...
But how to account that any place you may get sent to play may in fact be a money losing situation as well as a money gaining situation? Frank played
near Canarsie and got Warren in the audience. He played in St Louis where a young Ike Willis approached him but had just played a string of shows that
almost all lost money. How to account for that inthe changing nature of the game?
you guys figure it out
btw Bonny your diorama deserves a much bigger screen than I have so it is difficult for me to see enough, but amazing work!

out!

Having a bad day. Fell pretty hard on the way back from the supermarket, because the crank arm of the right pedal broke off. Got large wounds on my
elbow and knee now.
Bonny's In Da House! Hide your china!

Make sure the wounds are all clean! That's how my elbow started,years ago I bashed it and it must of never healed up right or rather it healed with
something still in it.Take care of yourself Bonny or there will be hell to pay later,trust me!

Personally I think the best setting for Zappopoly would be the set of 200 Motels. His face could be in middle of the board just like on the cover. It
would not have to be strictly only 200 Motels stuff, but it's a good overall theme I reckon.
Sorry to hear about your injuries Bonny, chin up.

Thanks B, I enjoyed that. Watching the parade, pardon, Brabantsedag in Heeze was fun.
We had what they called a busker festival here. So much that I didn't go downtown at all this weekend.
But it looked like it was some fun,
http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2012/aug/25/street-performers-transfor...
also, here's a new series where this guy goes to different cities and talks about history and stuff. The third show is about Lawrence, where I
live.
hope you can watch this as it is on hulu and I know some things won't play overseas

Glad you liked it Punk!
Sister lefta few hours ago. We played ping pong earlier, and while doing that we spotted two buzzards hovering over us, making a lot of noise. An
awesome sight, after which we went home to grab the cameras and go bird spotting.
Took my bicycle to the guy I bought it from. He was amazed by the break, said he'd never seen it before, and in view of how it happened, he decided to
give me a 50% price cut.
Feeling a lot better. Though my leg is quite bruised.
