Pffft. Me and the missus went to see ZZ Top* at Hammersmith Odeon / Appollo (or whatever it is called now) for their farewell tour.

They've done two more tours since...

* we left before the end

The Band are weird, aren't they? Had the whole down-home, good ole boy vibe, but were in fact mostly Canadian. Levon Helmet was the only actual southerner, I think.

Yes, 'The Night They Drove Ol' Dixie Down' would suggest they were all full blown Johnny Rebs. Odd.

Canada is redneck as fvck. Don't let the genteel accent fool you.

Nah, it really, really, really isn't.
