The son of Frank, Dweezil Zappa has been doing his father proud in recent years, going on tour with the ZPZ outfit to bring his father’s music to the masses. Sure, it could be considered a cover band, but Dweezil’s playing this stuff note for note — and that ain’t easy. He basically had to re-teach himself how to play guitar in order to get it done. And if it’s gonna be done, you’ve got to do it right. $15-$25. Doors open at 7 p.m., show starts at 8:30 p.m. Neighborhood Theatre, 511 E. 36th St. 704-358-9298. www.neighborhoodtheatre.com.
