Zappa Plays Zappa
Beacon Theatre
New York, NY
June 12, 2006

A show that far exceeded my expectations. Probably the best "musical" show I've seen within
the past 10 years. This recording conforms to my high standards of quality and is a must have for
those who love the music of Frank Zappa.

Recorded from the 11th row, right of center, but centered to right side stack of speakers

Recorded, Extracted and Edited by TaperAdvocat, uploaded to the Dime on June 16, 2006.

computer > Bit Conversion and re-sampled with Sound Forge 7.0 > indexed in Sound Forge 4.5

Extracted to Internet Capable Computer with EAC > FLAC

Note at approx 53 minutes into 2nd Set, I inadvertently hit a button that cut out one mic.
However, because I was seated directly in front of the speakers (and not getting a true stereo mix
anyway) you will not notice much of a difference in sound, but I nonetheless feel that you all
should know that everything after minute 53 (approx. the last hour of the show) is actually a two
channel mono recording.

I've also included some cell phone photo's of the show and my cheap shot at artwork. Obviously
my talents lie in the recording and not the art.

Hope you all enjoy this recording as much as I do. Please let me know what you think. And
most importantly, share it freely with your loved ones and friends.

May those who try to sell or otherwise profit from my recording be cursed with all the bad karma
that you justly deserve. This means you Middle Valley, VGP & all you other scum sucking
bootleggers who profit from my recordings. We will find you and we will put you out of
business.
