ZZ Top and GNR

Probably showing my age, but I just cant believe that ZZ Top are the "support" band for Guns N Roses (or Axl and some hangers on).

Who puts these things together?

Kiss and Motley Crue - how are they even in the same ball park?

Deep Purple and Journey - they've probably never even heard of each other.

<sigh> ... back into my box now

Yeah but...... They got legs!

how can you say that!!!

Guitar riffs are legendary, try Beer drinkers and Hell Raisers - riffs after about 1min are tops (pun intended)

Indeed.

Or maybe u meant Machinegun Fellatio?

Yeah Grumps agree totally

Check this out, 1980, and yes, that is Billys Famous Les Paul

Axl Rose is a sad fat old man now. Seriously. Too much money, drugs, pies whatever. When GNR where huge he was some kinda sex god for teenage chicks. Now..

If you wanted to hear guitar riffs many minutes long you only had to go see Neil Young and CrazyHorse last week.... some described it as "old men standing in a circle and mastur....".

It was loud and long and for those that appreciate that particular Neil Young combo a good concert but I suspect a lot left disappointed with a 2 hour concert with only about a dozen songs of which maybe 4 were the hits from the past in the "Old Man" style.

For an old man himself he really put on a good show and his voice is still as it was years ago - is that good or bad ????

+1 for The Perth Arena too - great venue..

I went to see Niel Young and Crazy Horse and thoroughly enjoyed the show.

I play a bit of guitar (or at least used to try) and pretty much taught myself playing some of his early acoustic stuff.

I was fully aware that with Crazy Horse it was always going to be a bit more electric and grungy but it was interesting hearing different people's perspective some loved the show some were very dissapointed.

i saw zz top for a first time in early 80's, they were supporting the status quo.
billy played on a tiny guitar that looked like a kids toy. like the one on a video.
and my reaction was " who are these clowns with fake beards ?"
