ZZ Top played in Macon, Ga last night. I knew about that but couldn't make it. What kills me is he ate lunch at a little restaurant in Warner Robins yesterday. This is where I work and is south of Macon. It is one of the places we go to for lunch and we almost went there yesterday. Not many legends get that close around here. If I'd known this i would've set out of here like the roadrunner.

And Billy loves to talk guitar with his fans. Missed opportunity for sure to meet the reverend

I'm still pissed. That little restaurant is basically just a mile down the road from my office. Walked in with a local.

That's such a shame.

What a rotten bit of luck.

I would've definitely asked him about that first album. I still give it a listen from time to time.

Fandango with the explosive version of Heartbreak Hotel is one of my favorites. The tasty licks and singing on Blue Jean Blues, another.
