No Napoleon left after the first tour. They replaced him with Ray White (lead vocals on Illinois Enema Bandit and others of that era). Then they went with no alumns for a while. Then their bass player quit on short notice and they brought in Scott Thunes (Valley Girl era) for a tour. For the most part they’ve gone without alumns, which I like, alumns kind of turn it into a museum piece. I’ve seen every time they’ve come to Tucson and up in Phoenix when they didn’t come down here. Really they just keep getting better, 10 years of practice has tightened them up, as long as he keep Scheila Gonzalez (keyboards, horns and vocals in the DVD) they’ll be alright.

What I know about it is this.

Brock was a guest on most of the 2006 shows.

White was a Guest on 2007, 2008 and some 2009 shows.

aside from that, Scott Thunes was my favorite bass player in the Zappa fold.
