Hey,

I'm a fan since my brother played me Apostrophe' back in 1982. I've seen FZ play six times, four times in '84 and twice in '88:

I taped all these shows and as of July 31, 2005 am trying to dig them up from my garage. Hopefully they're still ok.

In 1993-1994 I ran a BBS in NYC called Treebranch, and through it ran a mailing list called zappashows@treebranch.com where bootlegs were traded for about 8 months. Eventually people started charging for their copies and asking for extra blanks in trades, so I shut the list down.

I have been wanting to get back into the trade circuit and eventually find as many copies of the '73-'74 tour that I can find.

With the help of Charles Ulrich's excellent compilation of show dates I've set up the Category:Concerts page on this Wiki.

Eventually I'd love to help gather a database of every song Frank played live, and view the statistics of his most played songs, longest songs, most played venues, etc.

Enjoy.
