ZZ TOP TOUR
DATES
UPDATED 8/17/21 & 10/17/21
Hi
all!
Greetings
again! Welcome to the annual updated ZZ
Top tour date listing. I first published
this list in 2003.
At
that time, I had 20 pages of dates, with only two dates before 1971. For a fair comparison of our progress, we now
have 108 pages of dates from 2021 and earlier,
with a full 18 pages of dates before 1971
including ZZ Top, the Moving Sidewalks, and a few other early bands. In total there are 108 pages of dates,
offering the most complete and well documented resource for ZZ Top tour dates
available to the public on or off the internet!
Thanks as always to Bert Gangl for his tireless efforts and efficient
research! You can also find his research around the web for several other
bands. Try a search on - "Bert
Gangl" tour – to see how many other sites he has helped with his diligent
efforts. You can send him updates at
HubieGnospam@MSN.com. Please be sure to delete the phrase “nospam” from that
address before sending.
Right up front we need to note the passing of Joe Michael
"Dusty" Hill (May 19, 1949 – July 28, 2021). Dusty joined the band in
late January or early February of 1970, and was the rock holding down the
bottom end of the endless power trio tour.
His efforts brought a lot of joy to a lot of people. May he rest in peace!
This
is the 18th version of collected ZZ Top and Moving
Sidewalks dates. All additions or corrections which are new since the last list
appear in red.
Why
is this list important? Firstly, ZZ Top have always promoted themselves as “The People’s Band.” Indeed, this list goes a long way to
demonstrate the lengths to which they have gone to secure this title. They have
played in many out-of-the-way markets that other artists of their stature have
ignored. And this continued after they became mega-stars, not just in the early
days. Secondly, these dates represent the times when this band brought people
together – sometimes just to party, some on their first date – whatever it was,
bringing people together with music. You are probably
reading this because some of your own personal history is in this list. This
page is designed to be a way to help us remember these times and place them
properly in our own history. I hope it brings you some enjoyment!
Many
of you have made contributions to this list since I first published it, not least the Little Old Web Page from Texas, where I
pulled tons of raw data that continues to be verified. I would like to thank
those individuals who have contributed to the list since the first publication.
Many have added valuable information to this list, and most are noted next to
the date that their contributions helped to verify (when they don't ask me to
omit their names!).
I’d
like to put in a specific plug for the Look at Stubs website, which is a
repository of scanned STUBs, found at: www.lookatSTUBs.com/bands/zz_top.htm. It is free
to look at the dates and places. To see the actual stubs, you need to either contribute
ticket scans or pay a small fee. Ticket STUBs are one of the best verifications
of a show, and I urge you all to dig out your old STUBs and submit them to the
website.
Thanks
to Greg Deeter, who keeps tabs on archival ZZ Top live recordings.
A
special word of gratitude also goes out to our friend, Joel Kolsrud, from Iowa
who has long contributed to our archive and whose assistance this time around
was especially helpful. Thanks, Joel!
I’d
also like to make a specific plug for Pollstar. They are a subscription only
service, but they offer extra detail that cannot be found on this page, such as
the number of seats sold, the percentage of seats sold, the ticket prices and
the income for the show. Their information has been very helpful in clarifying dates;
however, a caveat is that they tend to defer to the current name of the venue, not the name at the time the concert was
played.
It
is important to note that many of the dates listed MAY BE WRONG. My experience
is that a published date is not verification of a performance. I have included
these listings as a basis of research. The best verification is a display ad or
text listing in a local newspaper or entertainment weekly. Even better is a
review of a show that has occurred. So please use this list as a starting point
and consider it the best info available to date. If you see a date that you
think is wrong, please help us to correct it.
If
you have any updates or corrections, please email them to Bert at HubieGnospam@MSN.com.
Please be sure to delete the phrase “nospam” from that address. Also, please
include the documentation you have for the date: STUB, newspaper copy, etc. If you can scan or
digitally photograph your evidence and mail or email it to me, this is
helpful! Also, please let me know if you
want me to use your name behind the listing. If any of you see an incomplete
listing for your city, feel free to go to the library and try to verify a date
in the local newspaper. I usually look for "Weekend" listings (which
can appear in Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday editions of the local paper), or
sometimes the Sunday paper will have expanded entertainment listings.
Please
allow time for submitted updates to be incorporated in the page! Last time it took 3 years, but it will get
done. And if it takes a few days or weeks for Bert to respond to an email,
please forgive him! Thanks!
Ken
from Colorado
The
following format will be used throughout this document for show lineups:
[Savoy
Brown/Wishbone Ash/BOC/ZZ Top] = [opener /2nd act/ just before
headliner/Headliner]
[Brackets
indicate the lineup in the correct order is known]
(Parenthesis
around band names indicate the order of appearance is uncertain)
Also,
concerning venue names, I have tried to list the correct name of the venue at
the time the concert took place. All the corporate renaming of venues can make
this a trick, but Wikipedia has been very helpful in guiding these name
choices, even though their own tour date listing does not always agree with the
correct venue name at the time of the listed date!
Here
is a list of source notations and their abbreviations. You will see the

is the live history of ZZ Top and related bands, starting with the birth dates
of the three primary members:
1949
05/19/49 Joe Michael (Dusty) Hill born (WIKI)
06/11/49 Frank Lee Beard born (WIKI)
12/16/49 William F. Gibbons born (WIKI)
1960s
Dusty And Frank Bands
07/xx/63 Jane Garvin's house, Como, TX (from
ZZS):
“Actually,
it was the summer of 1963. Two guys named Dusty Hill and Rocky Hill played at a
party at Jane Garvin's house in Como, Texas. Jane threw the party for me because
I was stuck at my Great Aunt's house for the summer. If I remember correctly,
Jane said these guys were her cousins. They played "Chantilly Lace"
and "Summertime" among others. It was the
first live music (outside of church and Jane's piano boogie) I had ever heard,
and I was blown away. Dusty, if you are one and the same, I'd really like to
know. If not for the diligence of my Aunt, you would have been my first. Even
if you're not THE Dusty Hill, you guys rock & I'll love you forever!! Betsy”
(www.billnarum.com/z-2-z/page223.htm)
xx/xx/64 Dusty Hill was in
at least two bands with his brother Rocky in Dallas: The Starliners & The
Deadbeats. (DMN, ZZH2)
xx/xx/64 Frank Beard was in
at least two bands in Fort Worth: The Cellar Dwellers & The Hustlers.
(ZZH2)
9/18/64
or 8/19/65 Dusty Hill plays a local
gig in Dallas, thereby missing a Beatles concert in Dallas '64 or Houston '65.
(per BUDDY interview 12/75)
xx/xx/65 Rocky and Dusty
Hill form The Warlocks with 'Little Richard’ Harris, and later draft
Frank Beard. Some gigs were played at The Amber Room in Dallas. (DMN, ZZH2, GHO)
The Warlocks
were:
Rocky
Hill: Guitar
Dusty
Hill: Bass
“Little Richard” Harris:
Drums (earlier)
Frank
Beard: Drums (later)
Mary
Smith: Vocals (when
appearing as Lady Wilde and the Warlocks)
Rocky
and Dusty Hill’s first musical venture was at Woodrow Wilson High School in
Dallas, together with drummer "Little" Richard Harris. Frank Beard
came across Dusty and Rocky while playing for The Cellar Dwellers at the Fort
Worth Cellar. The three of them, basing themselves in Dallas, Texas formed The
Warlocks dying their hair blue…. Later in their brief career they teamed up
with English singer Lady Wilde and backed her regularly at Dallas cinemas for
British invasion movies like 'Catch Us If You Can' and 'Hard Day's Night'. They
also backed her on their final 45 and when she departed for a career on the stage,
they formed the American Blues. (R6070)
05/xx/65 Lou Ann's Club, Dallas, TX (WWA) [The
Chessmen/Lady Wilde and the Warlocks]
In
May of 1965, {The Allusions} played a gig at Lou Ann's Club in Dallas. We
played on the big stage with The Five Americans, friends of ours from Durant,
Oklahoma. They had just recorded "I See the Light," with Dale Hawkins
producing. On the little stage there was a band called The Chessmen, playing
with a 15-year-old guitar player named Jimmy Vaughn. They were splitting sets
with a band called Lady Wilde and the Warlocks, who had a bassist named Dusty
Hill. Dusty's brother Rocky played lead guitar, and they had a drummer named
Little Richard Harris who twirled his sticks. Our drummer Garland was
fascinated by this and studied him all night. All the way back to Ardmore,
Garland practiced twirling his sticks. He turned into a great showman, as well
as a great drummer.
xx/xx/65 The Cellar strip
club, Fort Worth, TX
"Mr.
Beard... was landing gigs at the Cellar, the infamous underground strip
club-juke joint in Cowtown that later opened a branch in Dallas. Mr. Hill was
making the rounds, too. "One night, I was playing the Cellar with one
group and Frank was playing with another," Mr. Hill says. "My brother
Rocky saw Frank and says, 'Let's try to steal that drummer for our group.'
"The coup was successful, and in 1966, the Hill brothers joined forces
with Mr. Beard in a series of Dallas bands, including American Blues – a
psychedelic act with a one-of-a-kind shtick: The band members dyed their hair
bright blue." (DMN)
08/26/66 Dallas Memorial Auditorium, Dallas, TX
The
Warlocks and over 20 other groups play the finals of the Starfinder ’66 teen
talent search competition, co-sponsored by American Airlines and Vox guitars
and amplifiers. (DMN)
xx/xx/67 Dusty and Frank change The Warlocks
band name to The American Blues, in honor of their blue hair. (ZZH2)
The American Blues were:
Rocky Hill: Guitar
(Dusty’s brother)
Dusty Hill: Bass
Doug Davis: Piano
on "Mellow"
Richard Harris: Drums
Frank Beard: Drums
04/01/67 The attendees at this night’s charity
ball at the new Hilton Inn in Dallas would be greeted as they entered the
building by the sounds of The American Blues, whose members, according to the
Dallas Morning News, would be decked out in “blue suits, blue shoes, blue
shirts and ties and shoulder-length blue hair.” (DMN)
02/09/68 The American Blues and the psychedelic
rock group Southwest F.O.B. played this evening at Autorama, the custom car and
hot rod show held at the Women’s Building at Fair Park in Dallas. The latter
group featured Dan Seals and John Coley, who would go on to form the hit-making
‘70s soft rock duo, England Dan & John Ford Coley. (DMN)
05/13/68 KLIF disc jockeys Charlie Van Dyke and
Jimmy decide it’s time for “A Tribute to Heavy Music,” so they put together a
show to do just that. On the bill for the 7:30 PM concert at the State Fair
Music Hall were Steppenwolf, the Chessmen and the American Blues. Tickets to
the performance would set attendees back a mere two dollars. (DMN)
xx/xx/69 The American Blues
break up, and Frank Beard moves to Houston.
Billy’s Bands
12/25/63 Billy gets his first guitar, a Gibson
Melody Maker, and a Fender Champ Amp for Christmas.
(ZZH2)

Saints, within a week of getting his guitar. (BFG)
The

You can hear
recordings of the third band in the CD box set The Moving Sidewalks - The
Complete Collection
Here I must
introduce the Steve Ames calendars. These were kindly archived by the Briscoe
Center for
American
History in Austin, TX as part of the Richard Ames Music Collection. These
calendars give us
exceptional detail about
the evolution and gig history of the Moving Sidewalks. All listings from this
source appear with
the (RAC) designation. It is difficult to know from the available materials
when exactly the
band formed, as
opposed to when Steve Ames became heavily involved.
1965 Ames Productions/The Ames Agency
- "Ames Productions was the owner of (the Catacombs) Club and Bob Cope was
the General Manager. Richard Ames was the financial backer of Ames Productions
and his brother, Steve, was musically inclined. Steve supported groups... To
make a long story short, Bob Cope was the magic behind it all. Simply, he knew
talent and knew how to promote it. Steve Ames (was the) manager of the Neal
Ford and the Fanatics, (the) Moving Sidewalks, Deuces Wild, and The Magic
Ring." (an excellent historical overview is
here: www.scarletdukes.com/st/tmhou_hammondint.html)
Most of the performance
contracts for the Moving Sidewalks are signed by Steve Ames. (RAM)
Steve was also the organ
player for Neal Ford And The Fanatics for just over a
year. (USW, RAW, MCC)
6/25/65 Steve Ames (future manager of the
Moving Sidewalks) joins Neal Ford And The Fanatics as
the organ player after quitting the band Surfside VI (RAC)
7/10/65 Steve Ames' calendar suggests that he
either played a Neal Ford gig with the Coachmen or that he himself performed in
a gig with the Coachmen on this night (RAC)
12/15/65 This is the first listing from the
modern Moving Sidewalks website. It says, “Dan and Don Joins (sic) the Coachmen
- As Don Summers & Dan Mitchell joins (sic) the Coachmen with Billy F
Gibbons a new band emerges.” The problem
is all other evidence suggests that Don Summers does not replace Mike Frazier
until at least after the recordings of 4/22/66. The 2012 box set shows a photo
of the band on that April date, and Mike is there, and Don is not. (MSW, MCC)
1966 The New Breed – Beaumont, TX
(The band Tom Moore was in before joining The Moving Sidewalks. Bass player
Gerald Pierce went on to be managed by Steve Ames in the MS sister band The
Magic Ring) (USW)
The New Breed
were:
Tom Moore: Hammond Organ/vocals
Jeff Strange: Guitar/vocals
Gerald
Pierce: Bass/vocals
Jack
Grochmal: Drums/vocals
04/22/66 Gold Star Recording, Houston, TX -
Recording session by the Coachmen for 99th Floor & Stay Away as published
in MS: The Complete Collection (MCC)
4 or 5/66 "After getting (the recording) home
and listening to it a million times... we went to Richard & Steve Ames to
see if they wanted to manage and produce us." Dan Mitchell (MCC)
05/19/66 Jones Sound Recording Studio, Houston,
TX - Recording session for 99th Floor & Stay Away. This is the first date
in all the Steve Ames calendars where the name Moving Sidewalks appears. His calendars
begin in January of 1965. On the CD box set "Moving Sidewalks - The
Complete Collection" (my reference to this box set is "MCC") the
earliest recordings are attributed to The Coachmen from April of 1966. The 4/22
date in the box set is convincingly supported by an invoice from the session. But
there is a clear date {5/19} in the calendar for a session with the “Moving
Sidewalks” and the songs 99th Floor & Stay Away. Two previously unreleased
mixes are attributed to Jones Studios in 4/66. Since most of the other sessions
with Steve Ames appear to have been at Jones, I am guessing that this is the
first Jones session. Also interesting is the appearance in the calendar of the
name "Missing Links," crossed out and Moving Sidewalks written in.
Even though the MS name appears in the Steve Ames calendar on this date,
recordings from this session are still attributed to The Coachmen in the box
set. (RAC, MCC)
06/30/66 Billy Gibbons formed his forth band
called The Moving Sidewalks. (BFG) “Billy coins a new band name after being inspired
by actual Moving Sidewalks at Dallas' Love Field airport." This is the
date given by the modern website for the formation of the band. (MCC, MSW)
The Moving Sidewalks were:
Billy
Gibbons: Guitar &
Vocals
Kelly
Parker: Keyboards until 10/20/66 (MCC, RAC)
Tom Moore: Keyboards
Don F.
Summers: Bass
Dan M.
Mitchell: Drums
Moving Sidewalks History:
07/20/66 Moving Sidewalks begin to visualize
their sounds from the influence of Beatles, Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix. (MSW)
08/01/66 Steve Ames has still been gigging on
organ with Neal Ford. On this date he quits Neal Ford And The
Fanatics as a performer but continues to book their gigs. (RAC)
09/19/66 Moving Sidewalks practice. This is the
second date in all the Steve Ames calendars where the name Moving Sidewalks
appears. (RAC)

10/20/66 Mainstream Records calls back. Interestingly,
there is a note that says, "Parker out of Sidewalks." Kelly Parker
was a part of the spring recording sessions, and the Complete Collection liner
notes verify that he appears on the released 99th Floor single by the Moving
Sidewalks. (RAC, MCC)
10/22/66 The band worked on the arrangement of
the song "What Are You Going to Do." (RAC)
10/24/66 Andrus Recording Studio, Houston, TX -
Recording session.
(On this
date The Moving Sidewalks also sign an agreement with Mainstream Records
granting “sole and exclusive option upon our services as recording artists.”)

12/30/66 Billy F Gibbons: “3 guys making a bare-bones go out it, guitar, bass, drums that was it. A
keyboardist with a HAMMOND solidified The Moving Sidewalks”. This quote
suggests that the performances between 10/20 & 12/28/66 were done as a trio.
On the box set track 7 seems to be the one recorded in December of 1966. It
does feature keyboards. Was this Kelly?
Tom? Steve Ames? (MCC, MSW)

The
Moving Sidewalks warm up for Jimi Hendrix on some of the dates listed below. There
has been controversy as to exactly which dates were played by the Sidewalks. This
should now be accurate.

otherwise)

shows) (STUB, NFA)
[Moving
Sidewalks/Soft Machine/Jimi Hendrix Experience]
(Jimi &
Billy jammed backstage at the Fort Worth show. A photo of Jimi and Billy
is from this
night. During Jimi's set, before Hey Joe, Hendrix asks the audience "How
about that group named The Sidewalks?”)
02/18/68 Music Hall, Houston, TX (Two shows)
(RAC, NFA)
[Magic

(USW, RAC)
(Dan
Mitchell: "Jimi, Mitch & Noel actually stood behind the wing curtains
during our entire set to listen.") (MCC)
02/19/68? There is a great story in Billy’s book
about painting with Hendrix one night after the show. You can find it on page
20 of Billy’s book: Rock+Roll Gearhead.

07/10/68 Sam Houston Coliseum, Houston, TX (BCC1,
SAPL, HP, RAC)
[Match
Box/Moving Sidewalks/The Doors]
(Moving
Sidewalks opened for The Doors and John Mayall. If I'm not mistaken, The
Doors concert
was the first time Bill Ham saw Billy Gibbons play. Then Billy jammed with
John Mayall
and Ham saw him again. I think that's when he approached him.) (DBI)(also
D Pattison STUB)
“The
Doors show in Houston was a "happening," said bassist Summers. "It one of those shows that you had to be there to
believe or experience. It was in front of our hometown audience where we were
well-known and had a single that stayed on the charts for five weeks (99th
Floor). The Sidewalks ended their set, as they usually did, with I'm a
Man." The song went kind of like this: As it started, a fog machine and
strobe came on. Toward the end, Gibbons got feedback going on his guitar,
leaned it against the amp and left the stage. Organist Moore stuck matchbook
covers between the keys of his Hammond B-3 so that an E chord would continue to
play as he left the stage. Mitchell continued to (wail) away on the drums and Summers, with a few seconds left, started spinning his
Flying V bass in the strobe-lit fog. Right at the end, shrouded by fog, Summers and Mitchell slipped off the stage. With feedback,
lights, fog, and the organ blasting, the roadies fired the bombs and pulled the
plug to the equipment," Moore said. The audience exploded.” (BCC1)

Machine, TX (RAC, LOV) (Houston or San Antonio)
Love
Street Light Circus Feel Good Machine: In the Steve Ames calendar there are
only a few gigs listed for Love Street. The problem is there were three
possible locations. From the LOV source, we know: “Love Street attempted to
expand and opened a club in Corpus Christi (very short lived {circa May 1969})
and another club in San Antonio (also short lived).” Because of this, the location of the August
and October 1968 Love Street Sidewalks shows are not certain, because the
calendar just says, “Love Street.”
One
poster from Love Street in San Antonio also references HEMISFAIR 1968. The
dates of his event were between April 6 - October 6, 1968.
This suggests that some or all of the venue’s short life was in the summer of
1968. This is important to the following listing:
08/16/68
13th Floor Elevators
Gig: I am posting this listing verbatim
as a way to seek clarification. It is widely reported that the Moving Sidewalks
opened for the 13th Floor Elevators. I have been unable to nail down the exact
date (or dates). A suggested date is 8/15/69, however
by then the band would have been ZZ Top. Also, the report suggests that the
Love Street Light Circus Feel Good Machine was the venue in San Antonio where
the billing took place. This venue did have a short-lived location at 345 East
Commerce Street in San Antonio. (DH: www.scarletdukes.com/st/tmhou_venues2.html) So here is the listing:
The
Moving Sidewalks opened for the legendary Texas psychedelic group 13th Floor
Elevators at the San Antonio Texas psychedelic venue Love Street Emporium
located on Commerce Street on the edge of downtown San Antonio. The Elevators
set was stopped after only a few songs by the San Antonio police department who
arrested the band's lead singer Roky Erickson. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_Sidewalks). Note that
the WIKI listing has been changed.
The
more I read about the Elevators, the more unlikely either of the August dates
(‘68 or ‘69) seem. If anyone has corrected information about this event, please
send it to the email at the start of this document. For that matter, ANY ZZ/MS
performance listings not shown in these pages are welcomed!

“It
wasn't too long after the trip to California (9/5/68) that the Sidewalks began
to break up, thanks to Uncle Sam, who decided he needed Moore and Summers more than the Sidewalks did. Moore was the first to
go, leaving the band as a trio. The Sidewalks played for a while as a trio.
Then bassist Don Summers was called to military duty and Gibbons and Mitchell
were left at least one person short of a full band. Lanier Greig, who had been
part of Neal Ford and the Fanatics, was brought in to replace both. Greig
played organ and used the foot pedals for bass. The trio, then managed by Bill
Ham, released one single: Salt Lick b/w Millers Farm.” blogs.chron.com/40yearsafter/moving_sidewalks/

ZZ Top is formed; the name ZZ Top
was registered on this date at Harris County Courthouse (SDM)
07/19/69 Riverside Hall, East Bernard, TX
(advertised as Moving Sidewalks) (SN)
According
to Gibbons, their odd name came from a row of posters he had, and his
combination of the names Z.Z. Hill and BB King, which started out as ZZ King. Thinking
this to be too close to BB King, he thought, well, BB is on Top, so we can be
ZZ Top. (BFG)
ZZ
Top - The 1st Band were:
Billy
Gibbons: Lead guitar and vocals
Lanier Greig: Organ,
bass pedals (one-time organ player for Neal Ford and the Fanatics) (USW)
Dan Mitchell: Drums
07/04/69 Love Street Light Circus Feel Good
Machine, Houston, TX [New Atlantis/ZZ Top] (DH poster, SCN)
(The 1st
gig with the ZZ Top name)
“Soon
after the recording of Salt Lick, songwriter Jeff Barry asked Lanier (Greig) to
New York to try out a part in a new show called The Cowboys. He went, and got
the job, although (it was) short-lived. By the time he arrived back in Texas,
Gibbons had fired him.... He was replaced by Bill Ethridge. Dan Mitchell was
then replaced by Frank Beard while Dusty Hill subsequently joined in place of
Ethridge. Beard and Hill had played together in the Dallas band American Blues,
along with Dusty's brother Rocky.” (ZZH2)
Stick
Pierce: "During one of our breaks from the Cellar in 1969, Billy Gibbons,
who I met through my association with “The Magic Ring,” asked me to join his
new band, “ZZ Top”. Their organ player, Lanier Greig (formerly of “Neal Ford
and the Fanatics”), had recently left the newly formed group and Billy wanted
to use a bass player as the third piece. I met one evening with Billy, former
“Moving Sidewalks” drummer Dan Mitchell and their manager, Bill Ham, and we ran
over a few songs, including a couple or so of Billy's originals. I was (and
still am) flattered that I was offered the gig, but it just wasn't what I
wanted to do musically. Billy found exactly what he needed a short while later
when he teamed up with Dusty and Frank (also former Cellar players). The rest
is history and neither I nor ZZ Top would want it any other way." (USW)
ZZ
Top - The 2nd Band were:
Billy Gibbons: Lead guitar and vocals
Bill Ethridge: Bass guitar (apparently after
Stick Pierce had turned down the job)

01/xx/70 Bill Etheridge quits ZZ Top. He tells
the story in Texas Monthly Magazine in December 1996: “For the record, I was
not fired from ZZ Top for being ‘a bad influence on Frank Beard.’ I had received a call from my two old buddies
Jimmie Vaughan and Doyle Bramhall about coming back to Dallas to play the blues
with my homeboys. After talking to them, I quit the band. I did this just
before the band signed with London Records. I didn’t want to be tied down to a
contract with that particular band at that point in time. I have only the
utmost respect for Billy, Frank, and Dusty. (TMM)

shows, or possibly this show, are when the live side of Fandango was recorded,
according to the WNO website. This does not totally agree
with the BFG description
in his book, where he describes waiting out a hurricane with
the Allman Brothers and
Quicksilver Messenger Service. Such a lineup did occur on
6/5/71, but this was well
before Fandango was recorded, AND the first hurricane of
1971 was 7/4/71. On the
Warehouse
website they go so far as to show the tape recorder that was supposedly
used)

from a song called "Tush Hog" by the Texas musician Roy Head. The
group came up with this song before a gig at a rodeo arena in Florence,
Alabama. They were practicing a few hours before the show when Gibbons hit on
the opening lick. He kept the riff going, and Dusty Hill improvised a vocal. (CAW)

A great story was posted
on the tamadrum.co.jp Web site and has now been taken down. I am
posting
it here, and if anyone objects please contact me and I will take it down
immediately:
Frank
Beard: I'll give you a really sappy story. I call this is my "crying"
story. It happened around 1976 {SDM verifies the 1974 date}, and we were just
starting to make it. Tres Hombres was out and, Le (sic) Grange, the single, was
out. We had done about three or four opening tours all across the United
States, and we'd sold a million copies for the first time. We were on our first
headline tour and doing really well. We were playing "A" markets and
"A" halls and selling them out, so we knew that we were about to
really break. On a day off in Houston, Billy was trying to open a bottle of
Evian (SDM says a jar of hot sauce on the afternoon of the show) and cut his
middle knuckle on his left hand fairly deeply. He had about eight stitches. The
next night, we had to play at a show in Denver, one of our first breakout
cities. Some cities took to us quicker than others and Denver was one of those
cities -it was like our third or fourth home; you know, Houston, Dallas,
Oklahoma City and Denver.
Beard:
We're in the dressing room, and all bummed out because of Billy's middle finger
of his left hand. We thought we'd have to cancel but Billy said, "no, no, no let me figure this out." And he figured out
that he could do a lot of slide if he moved the slide bar from his ring finger
to his middle finger. The promoter went out and announced what had happened. He
said that we were going to try to play but if we couldn't make it through the
set, we would come back and play at another time for free. When the curtains
opened, everyone was standing, and every cigarette lighter was lit! I almost cried
because the crowd was so cool. The show went over really well. The arena had a
deal that if you didn't like the show, you could
return your STUB in at the end of the night for a refund. I think they had less
than 10 refunds for that show. That was a really touching moment for me.

Billy Gibbons: “The
vulture I guess was interested in the place, so he takes off and does a couple
of
laps around the hall. The guy we have handling the vulture came out, we stopped
playing
and
waited to see what happened. The way the handler has the bird trained, he taps
his head
and
the vulture lands there. Took a couple of taps, but the vulture landed, and we
went back to
playing.”

(The Black Crowes are kicked off tour after this date. The tour is sponsored by Miller Brewing
Company. Repeated anti-sponsorship comments by Black Crowes lead singer, Chris
Robinson, led to the band's dismissal.
Before the firing of the Black Crowes, ZZ Top bassist Hill spoke about
corporate sponsorship. "Sponsorship... helps keep the price of the tickets
down. So, I don't see anything but a good thing coming out of that.")

Dakota (Aerosmith-only concert) (SFAL)
Aerosmith took the stage
around 11:00 pm, with the stage wet from recent rain. In addition
Tyler had sprained his
leg weeks earlier, so it may have still been weak. Around 11:56 pm during
the
song “Love In An Elevator,” Tyler was doing some dance moves and appears in the
YouTube
videos to either
slip or lose his balance or both, and he pitches off the side of the catwalk
extending into the audience. After a short time, he is retrieved by a number of
crew, and his injuries result in cancellation of the remainder show, and later
of the tour. ZZ Top were not scheduled to perform this
night. All ZZ Top/Aerosmith shows between August 7 and September 18 are subsequently canceled.
