THE SCRUMPY MAY '10 - Mag 4 Live Music

FREE EVERY MONTH ‘The Scrumpy’ ISSUE 2 VOL 7
THE ZZ TOPS gaining top reputation
Were formed in 2007 to celebrate the music and career of one of the greatest rock bands
of all time. Comprising of Frank Weird on drums; Dusty Trills on bass guitar; and the Rev
Billy F Bigguns on guitar; that lil’ ol’ band from Devon nails the look, the sound; and the
overall vibe of the Texas trio with the beards, cheap sunglasses, the fuzzy guitars, the
outfits and all the moves. Their shows place great emphasis on ZZ Tops actual live
performance thus creating the most dynamic stage show, packed full of classic’s from
early 70’s and 80’s, through to new releases of today. Great web site on this top band -
