Playing Lead,Rythem guitars,and singing at the same time for more than an hour is what makes Billey Gibbons one of The Best of the Best in the business period......
Just got back from Texas: what a place! Saw My cousin Mike Castle.. Vietnam Veteran. Purple Heart, Bronse Star. His son in law two tours Iraq. Has a great band and loves our country like me
I saw them in the 1970s, 80s, this concert, and once more at the rodeo in NRG stadium. Bought my first drum set from the original drummer of the Moving Sidewalks in 1968. currently I live down the road from Frank Beard. His kids and mine went to the same HS together.
🫀🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬sir yes sir? AGREED. 3x3 saw ZZ Top three times LOVED ALL THREE, JACK AND TOOTOTABON WERE WITH ME, MYSELF AND THAT 1963 Chevrolet CORVETTE T TOP 327/375 HORSEPOWER #clicking
I find myself listening to Dusty, too bad I waited till I can't hear him in person to really pay him close attention. I am thankful we can see and hear these concerts up close and with clear eyes now! Blue Jean Blues !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The only time ZZ Top played the Astrodome. I was there. Joan Jett opened.. The masses were yelling " Z Z Top! .. Z Z Top! Z Z Top!" .. First song, Joan Jett said"Take your ZZ TOP! .. Threw the mic down, and walked off the stage!!
"I HATE TO CORRECT YOU, (OR), INFORM YOU, ABOUT ZZ TOP AND JOAN JETT, YES, THEY DID, BUT NOT AT THE DOME, IT WAS AT THE SUMMIT, TWO(2), SHOWS, SATURDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT/OCTOBER EIGHT(8th), AND OCTOBER NINTH (9th),1982!!! I KNOW, MY BUDS AND I, WENT TO BOTH OF THEM,🤠🤠🤠!!!
I saw these guys at my first ever Houston Rodeo, but my last in the Astrodome. They they made it an unforgettable experience, and I'm glad to be able to hold onto that memory to this day.
Love you guys your the greatest ever since I heard Lagrange on Australia greatest hits 1969 !!! You were ahead of your time !!! Loved FRNK Beards triplet roll in the boogie .
What I like about ZZ Top,besides their Blues Rock music, is how tight and effective they are. They never added Keyboards or backup singers. They are still a hard Rocking Power Trio! Two singers and a good backbeat! Guitar 🎸 Bass and Drums and that’s it! And that’s enough! Long Live ZZTop! 🎸👏🏻😎
If Keith Richards likes your band, you made it. What a nightmare, bass out on the opening song... in a 3 piece. They sure have a lot of hits, the ZZ Tops.
"ZZ TOP, WHAT CAN I SAY, ABOUT THAT LITTLE OLE' BAND FROM TEXAS,"🤔🤔🤔⁉️⁉️⁉️ IT AMAZING HOW ZZ TOP, ENDS AND CLOSES THE LAST OF THE MOHICANS (THE ASTRODOME), IN 2002!!! AND, JUST TO LET Y'ALL KNOW, ZZ TOP FANS AROUND H-TOWN, TEXAS, ZZ TOP OPENED UP THE VERY FIRST OPENING SHOW, AT THE SUMMIT/NOVEMBER 1975(THANKSGIVING NIGHT), AND THEY PERFORMED AND CLOSED THEIR LAST SHOW, AT THE SUMMIT, SOMETIME IN 2003(OR), 2004, WHICH IN THE ERA OF THE MOHICANS/ THE SUMMIT,"🤠🤠🤠
16:41 I think Jesus Done Left Chicago has to be my my favorite ZZTop song because in order to get to New Orleans he's crossing the Mississippi Louisiana line in my County.
It really shows you how much they need the low end. That goes for any band! But Billy is a gent, showman, and from what I've heard a pretty good guy. They handled it professionally.

I still have their very first ever 45rpm record, "Salt Lick" on Scat Records, with the solid yellow label from 1969, and ever 45 after that thru 1990 with "My Head's In Mississippi", and of course every vinyl album and CD they put out. R. I. P. Dusty 🇨🇱Hill
THis is one of the few times Beards kit is just normal. i am a drummer and musician and I love his sets. he plays great not like a mangini or peart but he has "manly" kits and they're beautiful. i wonder if he has them all in storage. These kids today.......uh hemm.....Grohl....i feel like saying "be a man; get a kit with some damn toms and cymbals!" if for just looks only
Tough way to start the concert...Dusty's bass doesn't work until the 1:00 mark. Funny to see Billy's reaction & Dusty walking to the tech like "WTF" and grins about it!...😎😎😎...still an amazing band and talented musicians. Thanks for posting!
I like how he just stands there, like, "FIX IT NOW"! Love Dusty's live bass, it has more treble than the recordings, more 'in your face'. Reminds me of John Entwistle of The Who, heavy bass, always better live.
Nice to see a show from this era. Haven't seen them live since 1981. Thanks 4 the upload. Last rock show at the Astrodome huh? Fitting that it was them that did it.

ZZ TOO could stand there on stage and play Hank williams songs all night and the crowd would feel they got their monies worth😁...yes they are all that and a bag of chips..amazing trio 😄💜❤️
In the Astrodome, in Houston, Tx., where Billy came from. Intro announcer calls them the The ZZ Tops? You’re kidding, right? Have you not even heard of them? DID YOU EVEN READ THE COPY? Give me a break, man… 😂😂😂😂
you might not see Him in person, but He'll see you just the same, Baby Hey Yeah YEAH! Cos takin care of business is His NAME .. TAKE ME WITH YA LORD JESUS!
Nope, he's standing in for Dusty Hill, doing the best that he can..., the Dusty boots are hard to fill. Give him some time to come to grips with his position in the band.
❤❤ for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son whosoever believe in him should not parrish Jesus Christ loves us ❤️ he gave his life for u Jesus Christ said there is no life for a. Un repent sinner
Радующая моё настроение . Любовью к тебе одной перенаполнен! Готов проявлять это и напоказ! Ты - свежесть, какую приносят мне волны, услада для трёх поэтических глаз. Концертный характер твой радует ярко. Твоя живописность - сплошной идеал, что кажется самым великим подарком, который когда-либо я получал! Чтоб видеться, я доберусь по нагорьям и жёлтой подземке из листьев сухих, и снежным заносам, и рельсам, и морю. Вот так вот отважен, всесилен и лих! Моя фанатичная вера как пламя, сжигающая вмиг сомнения все, крепка, как и нежно-соломенный мрамор, добытый весной на карельской земле. Мои искромётные грёзы рождают стихи, нежномыслие и доброту, мелодии, равные птичьим средь мая, шарм, умилённость, дар и теплоту. Высокие чувства порхают цветасто, как будто перёные тушки вверху, как будто салют наисветлый и частый! И жить без тебя я уже не могу!
It's amazing how much better they sound now than they did in the early 2000's, listen to their 2013 Montreaux show, the sound is so much better and more powerful
Actually, they sound better because they have a ton of backing tracks piped in during that performance. Watch it again and you'll see what I mean. Everyone is different, but I prefer bona fide live.
I think Billy had a little much to drink that night. He forgot he had to lipsync Sharp Dressed Man and Legs. His guitar playing was all over the place. Dusty carried the band that night. He was lead man that night.
More like the sound man in charge of the tracks he's been miming to for years forgot to turn it up for those 2 songs....so we heard what Billy really sounds like when he thinks the tape is supplying his voice! I've been saying to people for years how he NEVER sings Sharp or Legs live. People don't want to believe it. THIS show finally proves it to those idiots who can't tell his real live voice from those prerecorded vocals!
@@sarge9733 💯. The backing tracks, vocals extra guitars extra percussion etc have to be implemented to get the studio sound. People may not like it but it is what it is and i've always been entertained by them regardless. RIP Dusty
Playing Lead,Rythem guitars,and singing at the same time for more than an hour is what makes Billey Gibbons one of The Best of the Best in the business period......
They are truly the Little ol band from Texas, Dusty and Frank from Big D and Billy from H-town. Thank God for these guys!
Just got back from Texas: what a place! Saw My cousin Mike Castle.. Vietnam Veteran. Purple Heart, Bronse Star. His son in law two tours Iraq. Has a great band and loves our country like me
Nothing but crackiling guitar and real bass and drums. Phenominal.
I saw them in the 1970s, 80s, this concert, and once more at the rodeo in NRG stadium. Bought my first drum set from the original drummer of the Moving Sidewalks in 1968. currently I live down the road from Frank Beard. His kids and mine went to the same HS together.
They are excellent!! Saw them when they played on a farm in upstate NY. One of the best shows I ever saw❤❤❤❤
Yes man, I‘m old, but I saw ZZ TOP on stage!!! 😁😁😁
Dusty RIP.
Dusty, you will be my favorit bass-player forever.
I will always love ZZTop Music ❤😀

Cool, I just found my ticket stub from this show......great show....love the part after the show when they did donuts in the Eliminator
RIP Dusty, thanks for the entertainment.
The only time ZZ Top played the Astrodome. I was there. Joan Jett opened.. The masses were yelling " Z Z Top! .. Z Z Top! Z Z Top!" .. First song, Joan Jett said"Take your ZZ TOP! .. Threw the mic down, and walked off the stage!!
That's wild!!
They played the Astrodome in 1983. Fabulous Thunderbirds, ZZ Top, and The Rolling Stones. Best concert I’ve ever attended.
"I HATE TO CORRECT YOU, (OR), INFORM YOU, ABOUT ZZ TOP AND JOAN JETT, YES, THEY DID, BUT NOT AT THE DOME, IT WAS AT THE SUMMIT, TWO(2), SHOWS, SATURDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT/OCTOBER EIGHT(8th), AND OCTOBER NINTH (9th),1982!!! I KNOW, MY BUDS AND I, WENT TO BOTH OF THEM,🤠🤠🤠!!!
Would have Loved to seen that. @@jayhendricks6594
Cool, ZZ Top fans know Good Music.
I saw these guys at my first ever Houston Rodeo, but my last in the Astrodome. They they made it an unforgettable experience, and I'm glad to be able to hold onto that memory to this day.
Yup. I was at that one and many others. They even opened up the rodeo at Reliant when it was new.
Love you guys your the greatest ever since I heard Lagrange on Australia greatest hits 1969 !!! You were ahead of your time !!! Loved FRNK Beards triplet roll in the boogie .
Rip John Hill Dusty and his brother Rocky 2 great Texas Guitar Slingers
Watching this reminded me of how great Dusty Hill was... RIP Dusty one of the all time greats!
RIP Dusty I attended this performance Really great with a lot of the audience singing along
What I like about ZZ Top,besides their Blues Rock music, is how tight and effective they are.
They never added Keyboards or backup singers.
They are still a hard Rocking Power Trio!
Two singers and a good backbeat!
Guitar 🎸 Bass and Drums and that’s it!
And that’s enough!
Long Live ZZTop!
🎸👏🏻😎
Go have a listen at songs like “Legs” and tell me there were no keyboards?😂
Take it you are unfamiliar with the albums from 1983 to1994 ... Ten+ years of keyboard pop garbage.
@@avolite719 Yeah, I didn’t follow those years.
Have seen them 3 times in Birmingham Alabama.First in 83 then 89 and 2016.Were all great shows
Nothing like a technical snafu to get things started right.
I saw her on the 2002 tour in Hamburg, ZZ Top in top form, thx for upload ... RIP Dusty Hill
RIP Dusty.
It don't get no better than this heart felt awesome performance..love ZZ TOP..for ever..and ever..
And ever...etc..
Etc
.etc...
I’ve seen at the Dome (they closed it out) and Reliant stadium. I can’t remember which was when, I was on a high for about 4 days afterward.
Höre ZZ Top seit '79
Every true ZZ Top fan knows best to have seen them befoee 1980.
I was there, and each show since.
Thanks for posting,.,., man i loved these guys in the 80,s.
Still rocking out and writing great songs .Looking like some Texas Pirates in this show.
I was there at the Houston rodeo zztop kickass final concert at the Houston astrodome 👍🎸
That Little Ol' Band from Texas!

Thats a great idea having your Amp heads facing backwards so sound crew can adjust accordingly.. love these guys

It really shows you how much they need the low end. That goes for any band! But Billy is a gent, showman, and from what I've heard a pretty good guy.

😎👍👍👍
Doesn't it seem like Dusty always had technical difficulties in the first song? Lol
Jebeno dobro oduvijek❤
Billy Gibbons really SINGING Legs is a rare one. The mic was left unintencionally with volume?
In the Astrodome, in Houston, Tx., where Billy came from. Intro announcer calls them the The ZZ Tops?
You’re kidding, right? Have you not even heard of them?
DID YOU EVEN READ THE COPY?
Give me a break, man… 😂😂😂😂
“ Take Me With You Jesus! “ LOL
you might not see Him in person, but He'll see you just the same, Baby Hey Yeah YEAH! Cos takin care of business is His NAME .. TAKE ME WITH YA LORD JESUS!
This, coincidentally, was the bass tech's last gig. He now works the late shift at a bowling alley in Clovis, NM.
Nope, he's standing in for Dusty Hill, doing the best that he can..., the Dusty boots are hard to fill. Give him some time to come to grips with his position in the band.
I would LOVE to know what the upkeep and everyday routine on there beards is. Many, those are nice!

Billy forgot the lyrics to I thank you and sang his 2nd verse on the first one. Then on his 2nd verse he sang dusty's verse. Lol
