Strange news from Mars

The guitar player Jon Larsen from Hot Club De Norvege, has been traveling in space, composing music in the spirit of Frank Zappa. It may be hard to believe, but it has been a safe travel. The band also have members who have been working with Zappa: Jon Larsen, Tommy Mars (!), Bruce Fowler, Arthur Barrow, Rob Waring, Jimmy Carl Black, Knut Reiersrud, Ole Morten Vågan and Håkon Mjåset Johansen. Read more on the project on MySpace. Those of us who have been listening to The Mothers Of Invention's "We're only in it for the money" appreciate Jimmy Carl Black's nod: "This is Jimmy Carl Black, the first indian on Mars".
