When I saw Billy Joel in Boston at Fenway he brought out Peter Wolf (of J. Giles fame) who had played the night before and later Joe Elliot of Def Leppard who was playing the next night. Such a great surprise.
Although I have never experienced it, I know people who have. Billy Gibbons rolls around Houston just like a normal guy. I know folks who have run into him at gas stations and grocery stores and they say he just acts like one of us. Many props to a Texas legend.
Lol that’s one of my pet peeves too. Vertical is fine for short sound bites or an instagram story, but an actual performance should always be horizontal!
I hear you. I saw ZZTOP In a 3000 seat venue (Celebrity Theater, PHX,AZ) before they hit it big, which was only a few months later when I saw them headline a five band outdoor show. I’ve seen them many times throughout their career. They kicked ass every show. God Rest Mr. Dusty Hill.
That’s the John Lee Hooker modality. ZZ fashioned la Grange sound after the Boogie mans song “ Boogie Chillin”. He would use a propulsive drone in open G ua-cam.com/video/VSUeOvmkjM8/v-deo.html
@@kenrangen this was taken with my iPhone 14 Pro. I was in the front row of section A so that certainty helped with the quality of the video (the people you see in front of me are in the small “upgrade pod” of seats on the very side/edge of the stage).
Excellent performance. And, high praise to the steady-handed videographer for clear and smooth camera work. Still trying to translate the background voices.
One of my favorite bands, and also my dad favorite band, dad I hope your listening talking to ole dusty up there !, also the guy that sang tush is phenomenal!
Incredible two "Billy"!! Billy Joel is my most favorite singer-songwriter and pianist. Billy Gibbons is one of my favorite American Blues and Boogie guitarist. it's awesome and gorgeous!!
It was a great viewing this video that brought me back memories of ZZTOP and Bill Joel live shows back in the day. Since my friend grew up with Billy in Texas, we got to socialize with him in the backstage and found him to be a real gentleman. No wonder everyone wanted to play with him!
Very true Dusty is gone way too early in life. This is one of the greatest bands of all time nothing today can even light a candle to what ZZ TOP has produced in 40 + years that might be wrong I think it more on the line of 50+ years
Imagine writing a tune so pure and so simple that everybody knows it, recognizes it, loves it and is able to jam or solo to it. Doesn't matter if it's a guitar, a bass, a sax or a piano. La Grange is brilliant in its sheer simplicity, yet hard to match or master.
Im a chinese 18 year old who has been surrounded by mostly mainstream chinese or english pop songs all my life. But for some reason, I LOVE ZZ TOPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP
Heres to two legends killing it always on stage. The vocals singing Tush sounds freaking awesome. I think Billy would not sing the vocals of that song out of respect for his buddy Dusty. RIP Dusty. We all miss you.
I love the ‘Holy Shit It’s Billy Gibbons’ 🤣👏👏👏 Brilliant
No matter when, where or under what circumstances you see Billy Gibbons pop up the man is ready to rock and roll. Always sharp.
Yes Billy is a Master A Coolest GAY ❤️🥇🎉🎉
So
@@britt-janneolsen689
B,
Que?
BG not Gay.
And sharp dressed too!
amen
Whoever is singing Tush is killing it. Awesome voice!
@2v_5r Thanks!
I'm sure Dusty Hill would give his seal of approval.
Absolutely nailed it 💯
That would be the piano player 🎹
@@allenwilson9656better look again!
This is why Billy is one of the GOATs! He knows he's the star in this guest spot, but always gracious in encouraging the others to take a solo!
Class act, humble, doesn't need to prove anything anymore

T,
Billy Gibbons Is One Cool Cat.
Met Him Once, Seen Him Play Many Times.
A True Troubadour.
I’ve spoken with him multiple times at the Dallas Guitar Show and he is really nice. There is cool and then there’s “BFG” cool! 😂
Billy Gibbons is just the coolest. Every move polished and professional. Leads the band like he has been part of it for decades. Fantastic!
Billy and Billy... I never would have imagined it. But that was really cool.
One of the greatest pickers with that little old band from Texas. Rock on Billie Gibbons. Looking for you in Knoxville TN in March 2024🎉🎉🎉❤❤
Billy Gibbons is an American institution, so talented and generous.
Billy gibbons is the COOL HAND
LUKE of rock and roll...
Thank you for this, and for shooting horizontally and not vertically...great job, well done!
Lol that’s one of my pet peeves too. Vertical is fine for short sound bites or an instagram story, but an actual performance should always be horizontal!
Two great Billys that ive seen in person, and never in my wildest dreams though id see them together.
My teen years in music. How cool is this?
I was there last night and this was just fantastic when they did this.
Was this a surprise walk on? Did anyone in the audience know Billy was there?
@@riskybusiness3413 was a complete surprise. No one knew and he just casually strolled on the stage.
@@lisalovemc717 👍
I've been lucky to see ZZ Top and Billy Joel at MSG a few times, and I'm glad this crowd got a real treat. Very well made video !

God Rest Mr. Dusty Hill.
@@reydavidbarriga3212 saw ZZ five times between 1982 and 2002. always on fire every show and probably at their best in '91 on the Recycler tour.
If you had a list of the top 10 coolest people ever. He would be on it twice!
Two Rock 'n Roll legends on stage killing it with an awesome band behind them.
This made me happy ;)
Billy twice! Is like a fortune roll of a dice! Rock'n'roll, ladies and gents!
Love Billy Gibbons I think he is one of the greatest ❤ Z.Z.TOP Rock One
Best Band Ever they can play anything ,anytime any Tune, everywhere!! Fantastic!!
I went to the Jeff Beck tribute concert in London. Of all the stars there Billy Gibbons got the biggest cheer. And deservedly so!
Billy Gibbons is SO FREAKING GOOD. Great show.
To any aspiring shredder, study Billy Gibbons. As few notes as possible, but make every one of them count.
Sustain and pauses with big beautiful bends are awesome. Taste and pace wins the race.
As we often know. Less is more.
Absolutely. He plays so smoothly and with such attitude at the same time. It's not how many notes you play, its how you play the notes that you do.
That’s the hardest thing to do , way more than speed and shredding
That’s the John Lee Hooker modality. ZZ fashioned la Grange sound after the Boogie mans song “ Boogie Chillin”. He would use a propulsive drone in open G

It’s amazing the amount of people Billy Joel has gotten to play with him over the years, or who have wanted to play with Billy.
Probably because he is the ‘Mozart’ of our time, a songwriter, musician, and human being extraordinaire!
😳😳😳😳😳😳
WTF… waowwww!
What the what the what now!!!???
So Fng GREAT!!!!👍🏻👏👊
🇧🇪🇺🇸🇧🇷🤗
It’s not surprising, it’s a very incestuous Business.
Well let's see, do I want to do a song or two at a sold out MSG? No brainer for guests...
One of the most talented punks to ever come outta long island.
Had a great time at this concert. Very happy to see different views of it showing up on UA-cam.
Holy shit, talk about a crystal clear picture. I want to see the entire show like that!
That *IS* really good quality video. I wonder what camera/phone was used.

@@Billy_Joel_Forever thanks for the reply. I appreciate it.
Thank you dude! Loving this in England! Killer quality.@@kenrangen
It took eight people at least to create the sound that three boys from Texas did on their own. My My My.
Excellent performance. And, high praise to the steady-handed videographer for clear and smooth camera work. Still trying to translate the background voices.
Band from right here where I call home. TEXAS. YeeeeHaaaaaw. ❤
Amazing Gig! From starting in college, late’60s until 2023! No band is cooler than ZZTop
Both these dudes are 73 years old and there are 25 yr olds out there that can't hold a candle to them...PERIOD!!!!
One of my favorite bands, and also my dad favorite band, dad I hope your listening talking to ole dusty up there !, also the guy that sang tush is phenomenal!
The Reverend was awesome as usual. That guitarist for Billy Joel did a great job singing Tush. The whole band did great!
Incredible two "Billy"!! Billy Joel is my most favorite singer-songwriter and pianist. Billy Gibbons is one of my favorite American Blues and Boogie guitarist. it's awesome and gorgeous!!

The reverend never disappoints.
Reverend Billy’s the coolest of the Cool. Period.
Hendrix thought so.
Thank you for shooting this with professional quality. Nice work…
One of “The God-Father of Coolness!!!!!!”
Billy Gibbons ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Blues and guitar for EVER!!!!
E,A,B the heartbeat of rock n' Roll, the DNA of the Blues. Thank you Rev. G.

Billy just killin' it like a Sharp Dressed Man! This was a lot of fun! Kudos to Billy Joel for bringing him on!🙏😍 🤘😎🤘
Beautiful but sad, Tush was Dusty’s song rest peacefully Dusty! From a Texas lady and long time fan!
Very true Dusty is gone way too early in life. This is one of the greatest bands of all time nothing today can even light a candle to what ZZ TOP has produced in 40 + years that might be wrong I think it more on the line of 50+ years
This never gets old

The collab I never knew I needed. Amazing!
Billy Gibbons is a national treasure
He is a pure stud.
Damn straight
The look on Billy Joel’s face is epic……absolutely in awe and loving it!!!!!!
Imagine writing a tune so pure and so simple that everybody knows it, recognizes it, loves it and is able to jam or solo to it. Doesn't matter if it's a guitar, a bass, a sax or a piano. La Grange is brilliant in its sheer simplicity, yet hard to match or master.

Two legends! That must have been a great show.
Agreed on the guy singing "Tush" He was awesome. Great voice.
Mike DelGuidice
I kinda love how Billy Joel's face during La Grange basically says "a crazy man has walked in here and taken over my concert." But: a whole lotta fun!
Awesome!
Unfortunately, I have never seen Billy Joel but I have seen ZZ Top multiple times, recycler tour was awesome
That was awesome wish I’d been there 👍🏻
Two American Legends !❤ Incredible Performances and a Phenomenal Band !!!❤WOW !!!❤❤❤

Simply in the pocket and in the groove....
Billy (Gibbons) has always been cool... But hell, I think his coolnes is increasing with age
Willie G. is like a fine wine. We don't have too many guys like him anymore.
Dude may have been born a 60 year old blues guitarist, he’s got so much natural swagger….
Cool and gracious..
Well said, I agree 100% !!!
Good bottle of wine ? Try Bourbon my friends. This guy rocked me over 45 yrs.
Every musician on that stage are class acts
Never ending storry. Always perfect
This was a great time!!!
Heres to two legends killing it always on stage. The vocals singing Tush sounds freaking awesome. I think Billy would not sing the vocals of that song out of respect for his buddy Dusty. RIP Dusty. We all miss you.
