The children of late experimental musician Frank Zappa are fueding over his estate, after their mother Gail appointed control of the family trust to Ahmet and Diva – the youngest two of Zappa’s four offspring.

Dweezil and Moon are merely named as beneficiaries, and now the eldest two are suing Dweezil, claiming he is spreading lies which tarnish the Zappa name.

Dweezil claims Ahmet and Diva are trying to block his Zappa Plays Zappa tour, while they insist they gave their blessing, asking only for 10% of the receipts to be funneled back into the estate.

Dweezil reacted with the hilariously defiant name of his latest tour: Dweezil Zappa Plays Whatever The Fuck He Wants: Cease and Desist Tour. The case carries on.
