ZZ Top Performs 'Pearl Necklace' Live in New Lenox Without Dusty Hill

Venue: Performing Arts Pavilion Location: New Lenox, Illinois, United States Date: July 23, 2021

On July 23, 2021, ZZ Top performed at the Performing Arts Pavilion in New Lenox, making it a historic moment for the band. This concert marked the first time they played without Dusty Hill, who was sidelined due to a leg or hip injury. Just the year before, ZZ Top had released their album 'Hardware,' which showcased their signature blues-infused rock sound and included themes reflecting on the passage of time and their storied career. Interestingly, throughout their career, they've maintained a gritty authenticity, and this live performance stands as a testament to their resilience and commitment to music, even in the face of personal challenges. Fans and bandmates rallied around Dusty, who has been an integral part of their identity since the band's inception, reinforcing the notion that ZZ Top is more than just a band; they're a brotherhood.
