At first glance that looks like rather a short set (at least by Zappa
standards.) Are some of the above in special 'extended' arrangements?

Also, what does 'vocal edit' mean?

Is this your first day? Look who wrote this that message. What sort of thing
does Bill usually post?

I don't know "What sort of thing does Bill usually post?"
It would be a full time job to keep track
of all the sick assholes in this newsgroup.
So:
If the list is real, it's really really crappy
And in any case, the announced (official, joe travers)
74 minutes is a disgrace.

Maybe so, but Bill is a particularly clever and funny sick asshole.

Aw geez, Bill, I wish you... uh, they... had included "Packard Goose" -- it's
the best song of the show.........

It's important to remember that "Bill" has a very active imagination,
though he usually presents his fantasies in semi-credible form.

I'll make it a bit easier for you. I'm currently sick and I'm sure
some, but hopefully not all, folks think I'm as asshole. :)

All instrumental solos cut out to make room for the bonus material.
BTW, Bonus #4 below has as background music an out-take of Francesco Zappa.

Thank you Bill. Having read a few of the others comments I think I've got
the hang of you now. ;-)
