200 Motels (1971) - Frank Zappa DVD

200 Motels (1971) 

The Mothers of Invention arrive in Centerville, another stopover in an endlessly long tour where every stage is the same as the next: hotel, concert, search for groupies and arguments within the band (whose dictatorial leader is played by Ringo Starr). Absurd and witty, 200 Motels is a mixture of musical, opera-rock and sitcom truthfully conveying the catatonic state of any rock band on the road. Includes The Dental Hygiene Dilemma segment, animated by Chuck Swenson.
