Like the Stones, they'll only quit when the fat lady clears her throat.

Thanks for the heads-up

ZZ Top was supposed to play the same free event last year, but had to cancell due to illness.
I was in Paris to see the Stones the day before - rushed back to Berlin without sleep, just to find out it was cancelled. :funny

good to see Thin Lizzy is also on the bill - allthough there's only 1 original member left.... http://www.thin-lizzy.net/

Free, Thin Lizzy, and ZZ Top all in one night? That's an awesome line-up. Is Paul Rodgers playing with Free now? I thought he was still in Queen.

Lol, [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]

Free ain't playing - but the event is for free.

i thought david cook sang great with them during the finale of american idol.
i have never seen them live.
keiths intro for them into the rock and roll hall of fame a few years back was quite something...he looked pretty freaking wired.

:wtf1

Do ZZ play their own instruments?

And you wonder why you get picked on . . .

I saw them a few weeks ago at the Vermont State Fairgrounds. They were excellent. My 17-year-old's first real concert since he grew up outside the States.

"We've been together 39 years. Same three guys, same three chords," said Billy Gibbons. Who could have added "same beards, same fuzzy guitars (for She's Got Legs only), same black leather outfits."
