velorush Posted August 28, 2025 Posted August 28, 2025 Sounds (oddly, surprisingly) like Billy Gibbons.
veatch Posted August 28, 2025 Posted August 28, 2025 Must be using one of those fancy new Boss pedals.... : )
ARM OF HAMER Posted August 28, 2025 Posted August 28, 2025 When you have reached that level of playing after all those years you can make just about anything work for you and sound.................just like Billy Gibbons.

I noticed that also with the Fender Vintera II demo he did: Seems to me to be a two-edged sword...yep, he sounds like Billy Gibbons, but then again he always sounds like Billy Gibbons. Would anybody recognize him if he wasn't playing, and he shaved his beard off?
ARM OF HAMER Posted August 30, 2025 Posted August 30, 2025 What if he looked like this............?????? Because at one time he did.
Jakeboy Posted August 30, 2025 Posted August 30, 2025 Good to hear him unprocessed in a bar environment. I’d like to imagine he loved it and was reminded of why he stated playing blues-rock in the first place.

tbonesullivan Posted August 31, 2025 Posted August 31, 2025 Hell yeah! Jesus just left chicago! Such an awesome song. And yeah, I'm pretty sure that BFG can make just about anything sound awesome.

Disturber Posted August 31, 2025 Posted August 31, 2025 Too bad the person filming that gig was struck by a bad case of VVS – Vertical Video Syndrome. Honestly, why do people keep recording upright? Phones aren’t periscopes! It’s painful to watch, even though it’s the Reverend. Half the band is cropped out, and the “view” feels like peeking through a mail slot. Movies are meant to be wide. So please, dear videographers: tilt that phone sideways. It’s not rocket science, just gravity. 😉
Willie G. Moseley Posted August 31, 2025 Posted August 31, 2025 I'm a bit bemused at how much I've enjoyed the Raw album by the ZZ TOPs. Lives up to its name and does indeed conjure up memories of the pre-beard days.
Kerry Marchman Posted September 1, 2025 Posted September 1, 2025 Maybe it's the Epiphone IBG Billy Gibbons signature model "Pearly Gates" model. It wouldn't surprise me if they came out with one.
