Oh dang! Dusty Hill 5 years ago, now Frank. We're losing some great musicians.

That's a bummer. I always wanted to see ZZ Top in concert. Not gonna happen. RIP, Frank.

One of my all time favorite bands.

RIP

Tejas is my favorite ZZ TOP album.

RIP Sir.

Sadly Tres Hombres is down to one.

Such a great band over the years.

It is eye opening for us older folks how old these celebrities are now.

Back in the day when my stereo cost more than my car I was blasting this music up and down the strip. So long and thanks for the music.

The drums kicking in on La Grange made that song what it was, more than the guitar work even, IMO.

I always wanted to see ZZ Top in concert.

I saw them many years ago in Belton. Silly me, I thought I would be the old guy there. Nothing like seeing 70+ yo granny types wearing concert garb meant for much younger ladies.



once again RIP Frank...

I hate turning into the old geezer. Just the other day I heard myself saying, "Sonny, when I was your age, we had to walk 20 miles in the snow to buy pot."

And the kid you were talking to asked, "What's pot?"
