A friend just sent me this: Frank Zappa Hologram to Play With Former
Mothers on 'Bizarre World' Tour

https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/frank-zappa-hologram-former-
mothers-announce-tour-w516378

The article says its Ahmet's project. I does not mention Dweezil, Moon or
Diva.

Does anybody know more? Will you be going to see a show?

Interesting read and a good explanation of how such holograms are and can
be used - thanks for posting it. Then I went and found an audience vid of
the NY show. I found it only so-so, possibly because the sound was crap.
I did thing the holo moved around too much - I don't remember FZwaving
the guitar about nearly that much.

Bottom line: I agree with some of the quotes at the end of the NYT piece
- I'd rather go and see Dweezil and ZPZ.

But of course, ymmv and I'd probably appreciate seeing a show about
somebody I never could have seen live, such as Benny Goodman.
