This was my 4th time I have seen ZZ Top, and the best yet! I think what made it so good was that it was in a small venue, I belive theres only 350 seats there, we were about 30 feet from the stage, they seemed to be having so much fun at a small place. Billy was joking around a lot, they played most of their old hits and some awesome Blues along with Foxy Lady. These guys really put on a good show and played for almost 2 hours. I would highly recommend seeing them at a small cozy venue like the casino. I give it a solid 5 stars.

Saw the Boyzz on 11/10/2009 in Milwaukee, WI at the "casino." Billy had a different story, rather than talking about shopping at the Dollar Store, he told us he was talking on the phone with his woman and told her they made it to the big time by playing casinoes.

Anyways...it was a small venue with seating for 500 and I'm guessing there were only around 400 in attendance judging by the empty seats. The sound was excellent (probably the loudest I've heard them) and they were on! All 3 were having a good time. I was spitting distance from the stage on Dusty's side.

No opener but that is fine for me.
Same set list as reported on other shows in this tour.

It's always hard to believe how much sound three guys can put out there. You'd think that after being a band for about 40 years, they'd look like they were mailing in their performance. Not "The Top". These men still seem to enjoy what they do for a living. The music they create is as tight as ever, but still sounds as if they change it up just enough to keep from sounding like they're playing the record. Billy Gibbons is an incredible master of the guitar, throwing in one-handed lead solos occasionally. Combined with Dusty Hill's solid bass lines and the two men's fancy steppin', the show is very entertaining. Of course, the third member of the team, Frank Beard and his strong drumming, completes the powerful triad.
The only negative feature of the show was the lighting. Whoever thought it would be a good idea to put powerful spots behind the group and periodically blast them into the audience's eyes really wasn't thinking it through. At times, they were so bright and sudden that my eyes hurt. Made me wish I'd have brought some Cheap Sunglasses!

ZZ Top was a real let down. They didn't even play for an hour and a half. For seventy bucks we should have at least gotten two hours.

ZZ Top of the heap

Beacon Theatre @

Favorite moment: Billy Gibbons invited some VERY young boys up to the stage and gave them grief for being out too late. @

Opening act(s): Young act from Austin I believe @

ZZ Top rolled into the Beacon and took no prisoners. They put on a straight forward mix of their hits and the blues. The crowd was unlike anything I have seen at a rock show..an eclectic mix of bikers, yuppies,beer drinkers, hell raisers, parents and their kids! A 50 something mom and pop took their son to his first show and were sitting next to me. Billy Gibbons lead the proceedings and his growling baritone charmed everybody. Dusty Hill was superb and Frank Beard and his skull drum kit stormed through the show.

ZZ Top is terrific. First time I saw them live. Extremely entertaining, funny, and playing their a$$es off.

However, the sound in the Beacon Theater's balcony was unbelievably bad. The PA stacks are aimed at the orchestra. Those of us in the cheap seats couldn't hear any of the spoken portions of the show, and every riff was overwhelmed by mid-range. The house should be ashamed of itself. This is a dramatic contrast to the Wellmont Theater in Montclair, which is admittedly smaller but has speakers that point to all parts of the house. It sucks seeing a great band but not being able to hear them.

As for ZZ, I'll definitely see them again. Just not at the Beacon.

The concert was in a theather which made the event even better! The noise level and energy was second to none. ZZ Top has always been one of my favorite groups but we had never seen them live. Let me tell you, if they come back in the are we will be there!!! They sounded exactly like the CDs... At one point the played Jimi Hendrix, Foxy Lady and it sounded better than Hendrix himself...... No kidding! The light board video screen played the videos with the Eliminator Car .... Spectacular!!!!

I can not express how good this show was!!!!!!!

ZZ TOP: If you have the chance to see them live do it....

This was my 4 time seeing ZZ top and I would go again in a heart beat. I really enjoy their shows this especially since it was soo close to home. They may be celebrating their 40 years together but you would never know it by their performance on sunday night at the Sovereign Performing Arts Center.

What a show !!! ZZ was great.. The crowd was really loving every minute. I was singing and cheering and having a ball. I am a ZZ Top fan from way back..They still have what it takes. The House of Blues was a great venue for the little ole band from Texas. They played for 1 hr. and 45 minutes and gave us one of their best shows,
