We had a cosy day voting for the Top 2000 here, and I cut my finger on a bladeless kitchen utensil.

This year's Zappadan is going to be tricky with my job, but I'm trying to play as much as possible on my free days. Today, it was Freak Out,
Absolutely Free, We're Only In It For The Money, YCDTOSA 5/1, Lumpy Gravy, Ruben/Jets Greasy Love Songs version, Burnt Weeny Sandwich, Hot Rats, and
now Weasels Ripped My Flesh.

I've also been pretty busy.
So, Bonny, do you have any suggestions about things to visit in an around Eindhoven? Anything that might require a booking?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
No. There's not much to do here, let alone stuff that would require a booking, unless you really want to see the castle ruins of Asten and they're way
out of the way and tiny. We have a museum of modern art, Van Abbemuseum, and a few industrial museums, a historical open air museum and a lively
shopping centre that has anything but record stores.
I wrote an Eindhoven tour guide once. Except for the shops (some of them are defunct) it's still rather valid, particularly the title. It's on my
site:

Keeping up with Zappadan while juggling a job... I'm presently as far as I was last year, listening to OSFA as last album of the day...
God I love Andy.

Went to the dentist yesterday, fot a yearly chekup. Everything is in good shape.
OSFA really is a great record. And ANdy is probably in my top ten Zappa tracks.

Nice! Good job!
Squeezed in Bongo Fury and Zoot Allures before I went to work. I now also need to clear up the area in front of the stereo so I can play Sleep Dirt
and Sheik.

Played Sleep Dirt and Sheik but Orchestral Favourites will have to wait until I find back the copy Poly burnt for me.

Failed to find OF, resorted to YT. So today was Studio Tan, Sleep Dirt, Orchestral Favourites, Sheik Yerbouti, Baby Snakes, TTR and now YAWYI, which
as I often mentioned is one of my least favourite albums. I have bought 3 copies of that hoping I'd get something that sounds better since the poor
sound is really what kills it, but neither the newer release nor the vinyl helped much.

Not yet... I'm thinking of getting a decent version eventually.
Today I had some great news! My contract will be taken over by my company, which means no more staffing agency!

Alleen by the Rosa Ensemble. Two more lifetime-CDs to go and ample time to re-watch 200 Motels!
