Just saw this. 77 isn't *that* old (funny how your perception changes as you get older.) RIP

RIP.

Well, this should be the retirement signal for Billy Gibbons. End of an era.

The gears in BFG's brain are always turning, I predict he'll come up with something that will keep him active and in the public eye but able to go at his own pace. Whatever he comes up with, if not a-one-original-member ZZ TOP, will still be innovative, with great guitar tones (I'm surprised at how much I enjoy Raw). Non-stop activity is simply Gibbons' style.  David Blayney's  Sharp Dressed Men (a 1994 tome) would have a reader think Gibbons and Ham were "management" and Hill and Beard were "labor". I agree with that observation, and had read the book back then on BFG's recommendation.

Billy's been doing some stuff with Guthrie Trapp kind of a tex mex style. I like it.
