YOU CAN’T FIT ON STAGE ANYMORE
35th ANNIVERSARY OF HISTORIC ROXY & ELSEWHERE PERFORMANCES

Zappa Plays Zappa is embarking on a one time small venue tour this fall called ‘You Can’t Fit On Stage Anymore’ and will be making their only LA area appearance at The Roxy Theatre on December 111h and December 12th. Tickets for December 11th go on sale Thursday, August 14th at 10 AM and December 12th is already sold out!

For this tour, booked in hand selected intimate venues, Dweezil Zappa and company have included multiple bonus accouterments to add to your Zappa Plays Zappa experience. First is including a free download license of the entire concert as part of the ticket price. This will not be a commercial release. Only the attendees of these special concerts will have access to these recordings. The download will be available within 8 to 10 days after the concert performance. Second, every ticket buyer will have incredible odds at winning a world class Super Swede electric guitar made by Hagstrom. A random name will be drawn out of a hat and the winner invited on stage to claim their prize. Last but not least, Zappa Plays Zappa has decided to give all concert goers a chance to make song requests from a master list the band is prepared to play. Each night before the show the band members will look over the results. The top five most requested songs will be included in the show that night. VIP packages are also available that include all of the above as well as a poster created exclusively for this event, and access to the soundcheck!
Zappa Plays Zappa is more than just a tribute band that simply wants to recreate the hit songs in concert to reach out to a new generation of potential fans. This is a tribute band with a mission:
to dig into Zappa’s vast catalog of music (he recorded and released more than 80 albums beginning with his 1966 debut, “Freak complex, meticulously and arranged extended instrumental compositions. Out!”) and focusing on the highly rehearsed
