don't be such a sentimental person frank would've hated that. However, it is nice that young people are playing Frank's music, it sucks he died so young. I'm older than him now and haven't accomplished much of anything, so who cares what I have to say.
I have to give it to these kids I tried but don't have the talent or perseverance to play at all nut I defeated myself by thinking that these men and women were uniquely talented so why bother trying? Yet here they are kids who have the confidence and talent to total dedicate themselves. Support fine arts and music. Less football more music dance and the rest of the arts. can I get an amen at least about my last point?
@@robertmassucci1 Some music is intentionally designed to evoke emotion, like in the movies when they start playing the violin music. The filmmakers know exactly what they're doing. Sometimes, a piece of music is so beautiful and/or complex that it can evoke an emotional response, like certain works by Mozart or Beethoven, for example. Or in the case of this video, just seeing these young people doing such a great job of carrying on FZ's music can elicit an emotion. I can relate to John Manning as I responded the same way. Would Frank have hated the fact that watching young amateur musicians perform his music would elicit an emotional response? I wouldn't be so sure. I would never put a person down for being emotionally sensitive. As I see it, it's just a sign that I am a human being and not a robot. If other people hate that about me, they can pound sand.
Imagine walking in to a shopping centre (or wherever this is) and randomly seeing this being played... .. for a short while you'd be forgiven for thinking that all is alright with the world... 😊
The greatest thing I've seen in a long time, seeing a younger generation paying tribute to a great like Zappa ,( and so well done) is refreshing in this era!!
freaking awesome! I was listening to this when I was in your age some 40 years ago! FZ is simply the greatest and it warms my heart to see him beeing discovered by new generations.
Ditto, as far as I can see from what’s been said already, what lucky town gets to have you guys play outside their shopping centre car park!!! Zappa Lives on! Love your work!
Wow.. I grew up listening to this music as a teenager in the 70's, what a fantastic on point performance, absolutely nailed it. You can see that these youngsters enjoyed the challenge and had fun doing it. Brought tears to my eyes.
Great job! At your age, my friends and I were rabid Zappa fans, but we would have struggled a bit to play Village of the Sun as well as you do here. We did play Echidna's Arf, but you guys are KILLING IT!. That is a HARD piece to play although I can still manage to get through it. I am old enough to be your Grandfather, so you youngsters have been eating your musical brain food!
When you are just starting out in a band aren't the songs usually simple, because your skills are still brand new ??? The most complicated song I ever played in a band was probably White Room, but further reflection might reveal another even more so. Apparently, Louie Louie & Gloria were TOO simple, and they had to go and learn some Zappa. I'm so happy to see youth embracing real music, played by real humans, using real instruments.
Haha! You reminded me...when I was a kid and just learning my first chords on a guitar, we thought if was cool to do "Smoke On the Water"! Yeah, it is amazing to see these young people tackling something as complex as this...and succeeding! Very impressive!
Excellent job! I’d like to hear the back story of how you came to stumble across this music that was virtually unplayed on the radio (40 years ago when it came out)! I love it!
Ran across this after looking up St. Alfonso's Breakfast on a whim after a nice dinner with wine... This brought back a great era of my life while at the same time showing me that I've accomplished nothing myself. So glad that these 'kids' are all over Zappa! May The Excentrifugal Forz Be With You!
Superb. I've known these two songs since they first appeared and they have a special place in my heart since I grew up in Palmdale. These kids play this almost to the letter, with half of the musicians to do so. Well done
I've only just seen this. Absolutely brilliant. I wonder if they're still playing FZ music? Big shout to the girl (young lady now) on keyboards. I don't see enough women playing prog type stuff but she should learn from the best which was/is the queen Ruth Underwood.
The band is great! The bassist is particularly good. Love it when kids play Franks music, which is exceptionally difficult and not easy for kids to identify with. Really killed it with Echidna's arf of you. But when are kid bands going to be told the truth that tambourine is not a real instrument unless you play other instruments too, or sing?
School of Rock. I thought it might be. Very accomplished. It’s hard to think of a more challenging pair of songs. As someone who never got much beyond strumming chords, I’m very impressed.
Some real music. We'll done. Not an easy one to do. First heard these songs live in concert, back in '74. Blew my mind then. Echidna's has been one of my favorite songs throughout the years. And you didn't play slow either. :)
Awesome to see the younger generations performing FZ's music!
Digo lo mismo. Es buenísimo.
I reckon Frank would love it
If you can play Zappa, you can play anything. Great job!

@@cjod33you beat me to it

I give these youngsters a thumbs up just for doing a Zappa tune.
Props to the drummer for nailing all those time signature changes
I am lost for words its nice to see my generation respecting frank zappa
These cats actually sound great! Arrangements have to be solid for a five piece to sound this full.
I've been listening to Zappa since I was a kid in 67. This literally brought tears to my eyes !

John Girling, grab a tissue. They're in your purse next to your tampons.
You got that right, brother. I started with Freak Out and never looked back.
I think I would lose my shit if I happened upon this at the local mall. Probably the coolest seven young people in America today.
IT IS BEAUTIFUL TO SEE YOUNG GUYS APPRECIATING THE MUSICAL TREASURE FRANK LEFT US, HIS MUSIC IS NOT FASHION, IT IS ETERNAL, THANK YOU GUYS !!!
It warms my heart I see young people playing the music of Frank Zappa! Just the fact that they are even aware of it is great.
That was straight up bad ass! You should be very proud of that performance!
Yeah, absolutely smokin version of Echidnas there!!!
My dad Introduced me to Zappa. This is awesome to see young kids still learning music that isn’t just bass heavy dance musak
Imagine walking in to a shopping centre (or wherever this is) and randomly seeing this being played...
.. for a short while you'd be forgiven for thinking that all is alright with the world... 😊
I can't believe this! It's as if there are younger people who understand Zappa was our greatest composer of the century!
Zappa will never die! So good to see them young people doing such an awesome job.
The greatest thing I've seen in a long time, seeing a younger generation paying tribute to a great like Zappa ,( and so well done) is refreshing in this era!!
This version of Echnida's Arf is world crushing!!!!!
👍from Germany
It is so great seeing these kid they are really going for it.
I’m bopping in my chair, spilling my morning tea, tears of joy in my eyes.
Thank you for that. 🙏🏻❤️🎼
Wow, you guys and girls definately don't go the easy way. Great effort on a great composition, Chapeau!
From a 70 year old guy who saw Zappa do this live. You guys and gals are amazing
Keep the FZ music alive, America needs this.
It's hard to put into words how much I love this video. Thank you all!
This made my day. Frank, your music lives on.
Incredible tempo throughout, nailed every part.
This is the best thing I have ever seen on the internet.
Excellent!!! Frank would be proud!!! To youth!!!
Wow, you guys, that's great....and this is a hard one to play!
and girls
@@monoped8437 "you guys" includes girls, in idiomatic American English
Killed it!! Echidna’s Arf of YOU! My favorite song ever. Awesomeness
This is one of FZ's most beautiful songs. What an enlightened bunch of kids.
freaking awesome! I was listening to this when I was in your age some 40 years ago! FZ is simply the greatest and it warms my heart to see him beeing discovered by new generations.
Incredible to see people who were born after FZ died playing their songs...
That’s amazing- great job- that’s some tough stuff you folks rocked ! Keep that Zappa music alive!!!!!!
Good God I hope the wind don't blow! This warms the caverns of my heart.
Talk about bringing tears to eyes... Thank you so much for keeping Frank alive and spreding his messege!
Ditto, as far as I can see from what’s been said already, what lucky town gets to have you guys play outside their
shopping centre car park!!!
Zappa Lives on! Love your work!
Easton PA Annual Garlic Fest a few years ago
Awesome! I love to see younger generations playing Zappa's music. I wish I was there. Keep it up!
This is amazing, these kid hit it perfectly 😊
Wow!! Extremely impressive rendition of an especially complex and ambitious piece of music. Well done indeed!!
The next generation...beautiful
Frank would be proud. Followed Frank since 69.
ZAPPA FOREVER. KISSES FROM MONTERREY,
Young people taking such a great artist. They do a fantastic job 🙂
Well done guys!! Excellent job, and inspiring to see people tackling Frank’s stuff.
Wow.. I grew up listening to this music as a teenager in the 70's, what a fantastic on point performance, absolutely nailed it. You can see that these youngsters enjoyed the challenge and had fun doing it. Brought tears to my eyes.
Well, that was awesome! Nailed it. ❤

And of course Brian Brian
And Ruthie Ruthie.

I was in a bluegrass band that did Peaches in Regalia. Nobody at the festivals liked it. We did some Monk, too.
Excellent job! I’d like to hear the back story of how you came to stumble across this music that was virtually unplayed on the radio (40 years ago when it came out)! I love it!
Wow. What a talented crew. So young and into Zappa
Tightest School Of Rock band I've ever seen.
Wicked cover work by the band. Awesome to see the youth of America playing Zappa.
Amazing that young kids know and want to play Zappa (and they can!)
wow this is awesome! I wish I had gone to the garlic fest 4 years ago!
Wow great fun,zappa would have loved this cover.
Awesome to see the younger generations performing FZ's music! INDEED ! ! ! Well done !
chills! thank you for keeping one of the best American compositions alive. I can only imagine how you all are killing it today.
Awesome stuff - classic Frank being kept alive. All your playing is terrific.
Wow, great job! We all know how difficult this music is and you guys really nailed it!
You guys nailed it! And that's one solid bassist, well done!
Greetings Frank , well done !!! ! I have a jam now in heaven , love you all !
Warms the soul...
This is just amazing.
Ran across this after looking up St. Alfonso's Breakfast on a whim after a nice dinner with wine... This brought back a great era of my life while at the same time showing me that I've accomplished nothing myself. So glad that these 'kids' are all over Zappa!
May The Excentrifugal Forz Be With You!
Thank you for sharing this cover, Frank is my favorite.
Wow. Just...wow. Much respect.
Instant like for Zappa covers from people with less than 35 years
Well done!
ZAPPA FOREVER EXCELLENT
Frank would love this whole scenario.
Yes, you only get one chance in life
To play a song that goes like this...
like reen toot teen toot teen toot teenoo neenoo neee
A third the age of my kids and they are playing Frank. I was 15 when I owned my first FZ album...Freak Out a year after it came out.
This made me so happy.
Very cool & refreshing. Splendid!
Superb.
I've known these two songs since they first appeared and they have a special place in my heart since I grew up in Palmdale.
These kids play this almost to the letter, with half of the musicians to do so.
Well done
Nice job kids for remembering Frank: and I think it was him who said: " And this is not an easy one to play. " Nice job! 👍
You guys sound fantastic 👏🏽👌🏽
Nice to see. FZs music lives on.
I've only just seen this. Absolutely brilliant. I wonder if they're still playing FZ music?
Big shout to the girl (young lady now) on keyboards. I don't see enough women playing prog type stuff but she should learn from the best which was/is the queen Ruth Underwood.
Das ist klasse! Ich freue mich sehr, dass sich auch junge Menschen mit Zappa auseinandersetzen. Auch sehr gut gespielt.
Absolutely love this, you’ve all done Frank and the band proud.
Awesome.... Frank is smiling somewhere. I know I am. Hope they all followed their musical dreams.
Wow this is so good. Love this song
The band is great! The bassist is particularly good. Love it when kids play Franks music, which is exceptionally difficult and not easy for kids to identify with. Really killed it with Echidna's arf of you.
But when are kid bands going to be told the truth that tambourine is not a real instrument unless you play other instruments too, or sing?
FANTASTIC!!
Spotless!!
Young Zappas, love it!
Congratulations. You nailed it. "Music is yhe best" (FZ)
Really amazing!
Fantastic cover! Great work!
You all nailed it! Congrats!
Great energy ! Lovely . Thank you, Frank would dig it.
This was awesome. I'm moved.
WOW! The Drums!
👍Great performance!!!Thanks :)
Wow sentire giovani ragazzi suonare e apprezzare la musica del genio Frank Zappa,,è gioia per il mio cuore e felicità per le mie orecchie.
Bravi
Fantastic!
School of Rock. I thought it might be. Very accomplished. It’s hard to think of a more challenging pair of songs. As someone who never got much beyond strumming chords, I’m very impressed.
Boa, wie toll. Ihr macht mich sehr Glücklich. Klasse.....
AMAZING.
Some real music. We'll done. Not an easy one to do. First heard these songs live in concert, back in '74. Blew my mind then.
Echidna's has been one of my favorite songs throughout the years. And you didn't play slow either. :)
More!!! More!!! That was fantastic!!! ROXY & ELSEWHERE is a great FZ record. George Duke would be proud.👏
