Thanks Jgottlied.... That sounds like a cool time.... I've seen TOP more times than any other band, and it's always been a superb show, but always in arenas. It would be cool to see them up close and personal in a smoke filled Texas honky tonk.

I heard ZZTop play in 1972 at a small college auditorium in Central Pa.

Moments after they walked out on stage there was a very loud sound of a gunshot, and the musicians dropped to the floor and scrambled off the stage. The auditorium was in an uproar, trying to assimilate what had just happened.

An MC finally came to the mic and announced that the band was shook up and were considering cancelling the show...

As you might expect, the audience started chanting for the band. (kind of a bad idea if there was indeed somebody gunning for them)

After a fairly long time (ten or fifteen minutes) the band came back out on stage and proceeded to blow us away. But the adrenaline rush from their little ploy was enough to turn that tiny venue into something resembling a shark feeding frenzy

Stuff like that is what sets ZZ Top apart from their peers. They know how to get an audience worked up.

Herb, I liked the song a lot since I'm a ZZ Top fan too.

I really like the way you balanced the stereo image on this one.

Herb,

Missed this the first go round. Nice. Love the ZZ vibe, but you brought more to it.


Regards,

Bob
