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

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
