Chords for 'Scott's Frank Zappa audition' (Q&A with Scott Thunes - The Roundhouse, 6th Nov 2010

Tell us a bit more about that so the guys who are kind of new to band sound can [D] actually see what it's like to become part of the team.
[F] Sure. _ _ _ _ _ _
I have a friend named Ed Berman [Gb]
who is instrumental _ [Ab] in _ _ _ tenor music.
_ _ _ [B] I've been listening to Frank since I was eight [E] and my brother turned me on to [Gb] him so I was listening to him [Fm] from very much the beginning.
[Abm] Northern California, _ Gettin' Stoned, listening to Frank.
[Fm] Totally registered.
[Ab] And _ [Db] _
then I [E] stopped listening to him when I was twelve.
_ [Gb] _ _
_ _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ _ [C] My brother, who is [Eb] two years older than me, his name is Darren, _ he played guitar.
We went to go see, [Gb] I saw Frank in 75 and I went home with Andre, who was very [Fm] busy, I [E] think, I don't know. _
And [Abm] in 1980 he played at the Berklee Community Theater, April Fool's Day, and I [F] _ _ was [Db] just_
It's normal, I was waiting for [Fm] the monkey.
_ _ _ [Ab] _ And [Eb] it was very clean and pristine and just blah blah blah.
The best part of the show was when [Gb] Dave Lohman Griffin fucked up the beginning of [C] He's a Beautiful Guy.
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
Dave Lohman, Mr.
Lohman is completely inexcusable, sorry about that.
_ [E] _ [B] One, two, three, four.
It was totally awesome.
And [Fm] Ed and Derek were [Db] completely freaking out.
God knows when we got to the point [B] where Ed had moved out of New York just to try and get an audition.
[Bb] _ He went back to New York and [E] saw Steve Vai at a bar.
Steve Vai doesn't drink but for some reason at Oceanside, New [Gb] York, he went to this bar [E] and traded his numbers. _
Connected up with him, [B] _ Derek said, [Ab] I'm going to go down and audition.
[Db] Ed somehow [Ab] found out [N] that he was auditioning.
So my brother, who was a young guy from Utah, went down to Austin.
This is the time I was leaving the day.
[Abm] Got phone number, Steve said, don't call.
That was his last number.
_ [D] _
He doesn't drink.
He's already got me, [G] himself, and then we're your [Gb] wife.
He doesn't need to do [Ab] anything.
My brother wouldn't fit in anyway.
_ [D] _ _
[Ab] So I called up Frank.
Frank said, I'm [G] sorry, I really don't need any guitar [E] players.
_ [N] I need a buddy bass player drummer. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And Frank said, can you [Ab] do the zippers?
Yeah, why don't you call your friend?
He's doing whatever.
_ _ _ [N] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab] Derek said, yeah, he's fantastic.
He's going to give me a call.
_ [G] So he called [E] me up and said, Frank wants to listen to you.
I [Abm] go down and audition.
He said, yeah, right.
I almost hung [G] up on him.
I hung up on him again, [Eb] but I got the phone number and I did [Bb] the entire [A] thing except for the last [Fm] number.
About 15 times.
[N] _ _ _ _ So I got a work.
And Frank was just, yeah. _ _ _ _ _
But awesome.
Awesome.
So, come on down.
[Ab] Okay, how about tomorrow?
I can't.
Why not?
I got to work.
[Abm] What do you mean you got to work?
I got to go [F] to work.
I can't just cancel. _
[A] Okay. Okay, bye. _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ Did any of you have done that?
_ [Eb] No, that's how awesome I am.
_ [N] _ Remember that?
Hanging up on Frank saying I can't audition because I got to go park cars that weekend. _
None of you would do [E] that.
_ _ [B] But I had a boss who was a [Gb] PhD in philosophy.
He was told I also got it.
I didn't want to burn her.
[F] So I told my girlfriend, [Db] freak, Ashley, what [Eb] the fuck is your problem?
How dare you?
Call up the boss and cancel.
I said, I'm sorry.
