Eric Roth Soul Review
The Eric Roth Soul Review plays a high-energy dance-able firestorm,
complete with incendiary lyrics, heightening the drama of this music
theater machine. According to Seahag, "Singing songs from the jewish
perspective from a jewish perspective. Eric Roth is awesome and
jewish--- a composition teacher at the brooklyn college of music,
wrote the most killa intricate tunes for these subjects. The shit is
really funny and also really dope. The musicians (bass, drums, keys,
and two saxophones--that's right, NO GUITAR) will be "eyes glued on
the sheet music" for these tunes cause this is intense like a roadmap
through iraq"

Hello Folks
Andre' here
Quick Update ---- P/O is off for the spring...doing lotsa other stuff.... we're
all writing and playing and practicing and recording CD to various degrees.....I
just completed my work as Tour Manager for AL DI MEOLA...I got to put on shows
on four continents, it was amazing! We recently got back from Hungary, Poland
and Israel, which were all amazing places to see. Check out
http://www.sbgnyc.com to see some cool video from Israel and Morocco. In Israel
we put on SEVEN sold-out club shows in 3 days....I don't think I've worked
harder in this industry other than that memorable weekend..
Now - i gotta run - but here is an important message from our buddy Scott Tepper
(contact info below) who has a great idea for those of you headed to the
ZAPPANALE (where both Project/Object w/Ike Willis AND the Don Preston Akashic
Ensemble will perform) - He has organized a little tour before the festival,
touring through Berlin, Prague etc. Check it out - it's a great deal!! SEE YA,
andre'
Vacation Vibrations
Let's think summer, OK? Nothing like a nice cold beer in the summer. How about
a nice cold German beer? In Germany?
This summer, Project/Object is thrilled to return to the lovely city of Bad
Doberan in Germany for the 18th annual Zappanale, the great gathering of
Appliantologists and Dental Floss Tycoons August 2-5 that celebrates FZ's life,
music, and "conceptual continuity".
The Zappanale features Zappa tribute bands, former Zappa band members, and other
musicians and performance artists with kindred styles and interests from all
over the world. Thomas Dippel, president Germany's Arf-Society, the non-profit
group behind the Zappanale, describes the event: "Unlike a lot of festivals, the
Zappanale is designed as a complete Zappa experience, not just a parade of
bands. The atmosphere on the festival grounds is every bit as important as what
happens on stage. The whole city of Bad Doberan accommodates the festival, from
our honorary member Mayor Polzin to the café waitresses in the town square."
We'll be there, of course, with our spiritual leader Ike Willis. Also
representing the USofA will be longtime Zappa drummer Chad Wackerman with his
group, the Don Preston Akashic Ensemble, and new friends Kimono Draggin'.
European bands scheduled are French big band Le Bocal, Italy's I Virtuosi Dal
Pianeta Talento, Team Zappa from Norway, Zappatronix from Switzerland, Polish
progressive metal band Indukti, Space Debris from Denmark, Germany's own Trigon,
and more.
If you would like to come see us at the Zappanale and have an "absolutely Zappa"
summer vacation, sign up for " Farther Oblivion Tour 2007". Tour company
Vacation Vibrations is offering a package that will take you to the festival and
other Zappa-related sights and ceremonies in Berlin and Prague.
The fun begins in Berlin on July 27. You'll tour the city, and attend an
extraordinary event on July 28th when the city of Berlin formally renames a
street as "Frank-Zappa-Strasse". This will be the first street in Germany named
for a rock star, and the first street in the world named for Frank Zappa. The
dedication will be followed by live music and a little party. (Zappa fans in
Berlin on a Saturday night -- should be a quiet little affair.)
From Berlin the tour will proceed to Prague, one of the most beautiful cities
in Europe. Did you know that FZ holds a special place in Czech history? Former
Czech president Vaclav Havel called Zappa 'one of the gods of the Czech
underground' for his uncompromising belief in freedom of thought and expression.
Frank's music, smuggled in and enjoyed at risk of imprisonment, inspired people
to resist totalitarianism. That spirit lives on today.
After enjoying Prague, it's back up to Bad Doberan for the Zappanale.
Arf-Society's Thomas Dippel comments, "For over fifteen years we've maintained
close contact with our American fans; we're thrilled that Vacation Vibrations
has now put together an organized Frank Zappa excursion."
When you "get on the bus" for Farther Oblivion, you will also be part of an
exclusive get-together with Ike! Tour operator Scott Tepper says, "We are
honored that Ike has graciously offered to spend time with our group." Ike will
share memories of times with Zappa and the band in the studio, on the road, and
just one-on-one, and answer questions. The exact timing of that event will be
announced closer to the tour date.
Tour participants who want to continue their vacation after the Zappanale can
book an optional 3-night extension to Amsterdam, another awesome city with
legendary nightlife that is also devoted to independent thinking and freedom of
expression.
Vacation Vibrations is a division of American International Tour Groups, a group
tour operator specializing in customized group trips since 1990. American
International's founder and CEO Sam Schlossberg says, "Vacation Vibrations'
Farther Oblivion Tour 2007 is another example of what we are so good at:
planning trips to meet the needs of groups with a very specialized interest. As
always, people on our trip will have a great time!"
