    Another great musician from a 3-man band that can never be replaced. R.I.P. Dusty.

    (the post from the cunt above was abhorrent)
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    "Little old band from Texas".

    For three people to put out that kind sound is only equaled by Rush.
    Both bands lost a member.

    I remember when Tres Hombres came out, was hooked forever.

    RIP Dusty.

    You are fucked up in the head!

    ZZ Top was a great R&R band. Dusty can never be replaced, just as Neal can never be replaced in Rush. Both bands will never play again

    Dusty Hill Once Asked ZZ Top Band Members To Continue Without Him When He Dies

    Dusty Hill was ZZ Top‘s bassist since 1969, so it makes sense that the band would consider retiring without him. Dusty recently passed away at the age of 72 and reportedly asked the band to continue without him before his death. He even handpicked his replacement: Elwood Francis. Elwood has been the band’s guitar tech for a long time.

    Bandmate Billy Gibbons said, “As Dusty said upon his departure, ‘Let the show go on!’ And … with respect, we’ll do well to get beyond this and honor his wishes. Dusty emphatically grabbed my arm and said, ‘Give Elwood the bottom end, and take it to the Top.’ He meant it, amigo. He really did.”

    Elwood played in Dusty’s place before he passed away when he was dealing with a hip injury. ZZ Top was supposed to play a show in South Carolina but canceled. It may take some time for them to get back on the road after the passing of their longtime band member and friend, but it seems like that’s what Dusty would want them to do.
