    The right reverend Billy G. uses the pointing finger pose quite often, always thought it looks like he is trying to deflect attention to others, doesn't work, he is so cool.
    Not often you see Billy sans his "cheap sunglasses"!
    Saw ZZ Top at the Memorial Coliseum in Portland about 1980.
    My ears are still smarting

    Fandangtastic!! Thanks!
    Somebody needs to use a group picture and list names left to right for those of us not lucky enough to personally know just who is who. I've met a dang few but honored that I've managed to meet any of them.

    This young guy, soon to be 100 on July 10, 2021(THANK YOU HEMI32!) was great to meet even if he did write all over my shirt from winduptoy commemorating our road trip from VA to LARS in 2016.
    Great memory to Al

    Billy Gibbons is the coolest guy on the planet. I've seen ZZ Top 13x in the past 25 years.

    What a gathering! As someone before said "Hot rod royalty, all". To the pioneers of the sport that were there, a heartfelt thank you for all you did and continue to do, and those who were there and those that weren't, that learned from them and followed in their footsteps to advance and help this hobby we all love, we owe ya baby!! Happy birthday to Alex and Ed, may you have as many more as you want.

    What an amazing collection of photos, and a wealth of knowledge in the people gathered there. These pics should be preserved because when this time comes around again, you might not be able to gather them all in.
    Thanks for the ticket, and ride.

    Happy Birthday Alex.
