Hey, @bkeske -- I saw Mehta and the L.A. Phil several times during my younger days. I saw him lead the LAPO at the Music Center a couple times. I was at the Hollywood Bowl (or was it the Greek?) when Frank Zappa played with the L.A. Phil and dryly said "Hit it Zube" or some such.  Zubin was wearing a billowy white shirt so the psychedelic lighting would bounce off of him. The L.A. Phil actually played at my high school one day, several years previously, though I'm certain Zubin wasn't at the podium.
