Dweezil Zappa

I never thought I’d be writing this, but here I am. I was a huge skeptic and didn’t believe in magic spells until a close co-worker recommended Gogofaima. My love life was a mess, with two divorces behind me and a third on...

Just finished listining to episode 21 with Joe Bonamassa. Where's Eddie?...

Wouldn’t it be great if the Dweezil was interviewed by a guitar player about Eddie?? Guitar in hand!   My topics are the following   pls add yours   Thanks Matterhorn    1- his experiences with eddie 2- dweeezils top...

Hi everyone! I thought I'd share this unique interview with the hardcore Van Halen fans, which certainly includes Dweezil! Journalist Steven Rosen gave me permission to transcribe and share this early 1985 conversation he had...

Hi Dweezil, I'm curious how you're going to use your new ATMOS studio. I assume you will record your own music, but will you take on outside mixing in ATMOS? Love to hear your plans....

I"ve found this short documentary, from four years ago, on Dweezil's defunct YouTube Channel. It has interviews and concert clips. (Forgive me if this had already been posted. I couldn't find it...

Is there any chance we can have a chat room and/or forum here.? I'd love a thread with a Q&A with Dweezil and much much more.  ...

No tasty treats for Mother’s Day?...

Dweezil, thanks for the update.  Sorry to hear there are no live shows planned for the immediate future. Covid had a disproportionally negative effect on bands (and roadies) playing smaller venues than say, stadium size...

Super stoked to play Muffin Man with Steve Vai at guitar camp this year! Was really cool to play Frank’s music with one of his prodigies.  Steve fondly spoke of Frank, telling stories during his master classes.  Recall too...

how long, time-wise, are the van halen podcasts? says the early yrs have 12 podcasts, the sammy yrs have 10 podcasts. are they 10 minutes each? 60 minutes each? if someone could list the length of each podcast, that sure...

I’m on holiday in Sardinia for a week and have randomly just got talking to this couple and because she was from America told her I was a Zappa fan. It just so happens that she is the daughter of Sylvia Cossich, as the story...

Dear Dweezil

I am a silver guy - What's the difference if i became Gold member?...

Last night my parents and I saw Dweezil at The Pageant! The band played for 2.5 hours, performing exciting arrangements of so many favorites and a few songs I had actually never heard, including Punky's Whips! The early...

My 1st post. I have a new EP coming out soon called "Mr Big" Stay Tuned!...

This picture was made by Pia Vai, backstage at the GLivelab Club in Tampere Finland, September 2023. Last year Steve interviewed ME about my book on Frank, for which DZ so sweetly wrote the...

This is a fantastic and just plain fun interview Dweezil did in 2018 with the brilliant Mdou Moctar of Niger who plays in Touareg styles and his own unique style. https://youtu.be/Ugk8Qeb9BE0...

I know this is not directly related to Dweezil's site. But, I thought this was a well written piece on the future of subscription based services. I guess my main reason for putting this here is to convince others/new...

As we all know, over the years DZ has made a number of guest contributions to records by other artists. I have complied a few of these on this Spotify playlist....

Dweezil is, for me, all things ZAPPA. I cannot, in good conscience, visit/purchase, from any other "official" Zappa website. It just makes me ill. I'd rather buy from some person on Ebay, items that I can't get from Dweezils...

I loved how everything and everyone was a potential target of criticism and humor in the music and commentary of the genius FZ. His ideas never appeared rooted in any one-sided position. His art was the best kind. It worked...

Just ordered this, signed too. https://haverproducties.nl/product/frank-and-co/   Can't wait....
