Exeter Phoenix, Tuesday 12 April, 8pm, £15
Prepare to get Zapped at this Phonic FM benefit gig! Dutch-based Zappatika are leading exponents of the challenging music of Frank Zappa, who regularly play with a range of Zappa alumni to help keep the great man’s legacy alive.
Expect stimulating re-interpretations of classic tracks rather than slavish copies, with on-stage antics, improvised sections and a sprinkling of Zappatika’s own Zappa-inspired material. Prepare to be zapped by numbers such as ‘My Guitar Wants to Kill Your Moma’, ‘Kozmic Debris’, ‘The Torture Never Stops’, ‘Filthy Habits’, ‘Wonderful Wino’, I am the Slime’, Eat That Question’, ‘Zoot Allures’, ‘Black Napkins’, ‘Andy’, ‘Why does it Hurt when I Pee?’, ‘Little Miss Pinky’, ‘Camarillo Brillo’, ‘Whipping Post’, ‘Muffin Man’ and much more besides…
