Dusty Hill, bass player and founding member of ZZ Top dead

That really sucks.

Oh man! I love ZZ Top!

RIP Dusty

Yep….

Pissed that I never saw them play live. My own fault, really. They toured a ton. I took the band for granted.

Rest In Peace, bearded bro.

I won tickets about 20 years back, but then found out a neighbor who was deploying really wanted to go, so I gave them to him and his girlfriend. Always figured I'd get another chance :(

cool song

Lots of stars suddenly dying..

hmmm

Another Vaxxident?

You absolutely did the right thing in that case. Awesome gesture.
But yeah…you, like me, took them for granted. They always toured, figuring I’d get a chance at some point.

Most of them were probably first in line. Many felt they ‘had’ to in order to tour or perform again. This will be continuing.

RIP rough boy.

Man, that shit could end even Keith Richards.

Well fuck....I have not nearly enough alcohol at my farm for this sad news.

Damn....yeah, someone drop a comment if it becomes known he took the jab.

RIP, sir.

Don't worry you didn't really miss anything by not seeing them live. Not impressive.

This is ZZ Top's best song ever, Blue Jean Blues

this year marked 50 years for them. I assume he was vaxxed

Dying peacefully in your sleep is the new trend among celebrities. Much like hanging yourself on a doorknob was a couple of years ago.

These people are always following the latest trends.

Ahhh…that’s too bad.

The members of ZZ Top, Billy, and Frank, would like to share that Dusty, their fearless Bass player, is on a short detour back to Texas, to address a hip issue. They await a speedy recovery and have him back pronto. Per Dusty’s request “The show must go on!”. With that directive, ZZ Top has put the services of Mr. Elwood Francis, their trusted guitar tech of the past two decades, into play with his slide guitar, bass guitar and harmonica playing in full swing. “And with Elwood to our right...

Great guy, lived nearby and I do have some Dusty Hill stories to tell.

But everyone around here does.

Sad news indeed.

He was 72. A lot of pressure put on the over 70 crowd to vaxx. ...
