This was one of the best concerrts of the 1988 tour! The 'secret word' for the night was "Corn Hole". Frank and the band took the secret word tradition it's absolute extreme in terms of "Does Humor Belong in Music?!" Yes indeed of course it does!!
This is an edited 20 minutes of the full video. It's a rather poorly shot audience video from 1988 so don't expect too much in terms of quality! The three songs that are included in this video are what makes it a true Zappa gem!

1 Ring Of Fire (On the cornhole!)
2 Stairway to Cornhole!
3. The Untouchable Cornholes!
This was performed in the middle of Stairway right before the incredibly talented Mike Keneally and the all star 5 piece horn section launched into their note for note duplication of Jimmy Page's original studio guitar solo from Stairway to Heaven. It was a draw dropping moment of musical magic each and every time Zappa's 1988 band played their cover version of the most played song in the history of FM radio which is why FZ decided to do his own cover because he said he had never actually heard the song! "Music is the BEST!" (FZ)
