ZZ Top

In their live performance of 'Pincushion' on June 18, 2011, ZZ Top showcased not just their musical prowess but also the enduring appeal that has defined their career. Leading up to this show, the band had released 'Recycler' in 1990, but by 2011 they were basking in the success of their album 'La Futura,' which marked a significant return to their classic sound after a long hiatus in studio work. It's fascinating how ZZ Top has managed to blend their gritty rock with a hint of bluesy charm, all while sporting those iconic beards. The U.S. Cellular Pavilion in Gilford saw fans reveling in timeless hits, and the band's energy, coupled with their love for spontaneity, makes even a live recording feel special. Plus, they’ve earned a solid reputation for their electrifying on-stage charisma, making every appearance a memorable one.
