i was going to see this, but passed.
i was afraid it was going to be a huge wank-a-thon.

i saw frank many times when he used to come to philly in the fall,
just before or after his notorious new york halloween shows.

i just could not bring myself to accept dweezil as a substitute,
and watch everyone cheer when he did "yellow snow" etc...

glad you enjoyed it jimmy - sorry i missed both it and you!

btw: i think dweezil ended up with frank's ex-hendrix strat - one of the
ones that was set aflame with light fluid onstage by jimi.

yup, and he would not sell it for half a million $US:
