Frank Zappa, Toronto, 4 May 1973

FZ digging on Jean Luc Ponty at Maple Leaf Gardens. Followed FZ concerts around the NE while F.S., my roommate, would yell out "Freak Me Out, Frank" at each concert. The next night we were in Rochester, NY to listen again to the Mahavishnu Orchestra followed by Zappa. I missed the Syracuse concert because of a photo assignment I couldn't get out of (classical concert in Canton).

 

Pentax SPII w/150mm lens, Tri-X Pan pushed to 1600, & no flash. Used handheld Pentax Optio A10 to digitize (photocopy) from the existing print (the photo of the print is better than the scanned negative with my present film scanner. The scanner can't handle contrast. (The print is sharper than this, and if I ever set up my copy stand, I might replace this.)
