RE: Learn Something New Every Day Contest. Day 9
I love ZZ Top! Did you know that they were the "Festival Band" in the movie "Back to the Future: 3"?
I actually got to set up and tear down the groups stage equipment and watch the show from backstage at the Clark County Amphitheater back in 2008!
Dude that's awesome! It's been so long since i saw part three... I did not know they were the "Festival Band!" I always got to carry around my parents equipment! Another interesting fact... ZZ Top have a song called the Balinese. My dad and mom played there just before the hurricane blew it off the map. http://www.balineseroom.net/historyofBalinese.htm
Cool stories my friend!
Another cool fact about ZZ Top. The razor company "Bic" offered them a million dollars EACH to shave their beards for a commercial for them. I think this was back in the 90's when a million bucks was a lot more than it is now (not that a million bucks isn't a lot, cause it is). Can you guess what the band members answers were? LOL
