We’ve got the Angry Ladybird, and mixed up chameleon, but I know there’s also one about a brown bear. The thing is, if someone put one of those books in front of you I bet you’d recognise it as ‘the person who wrote the very hungry caterpillar’, and I think that’s special.

Was it a virus?

I dunno. Is it possible to self-infect with a lethal virus?

Bitgin radio sounds cool, but I meant virgin radio

I’m sad about this one. I remember when they released Eliminator in 1983, and the great videos that went with it, which is when they seemed to get more attention in the UK.

Sir Taxalot · **Joined:** 5th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 4878

Aw shit. I watched the ZZ top documentary on Netflix a few month ago and really enjoyed it. It's easy to forget how tight they were as a band, really tight sounding.

DavPaz · **Joined:** 27th Jun, 2008 **Posts:** 38709

My sum and total knowledge of ZZ Top is from Back to the Future and Book 3 of The Dark Tower.

Great beards though

For some reason this sentence has made me giggle a lot. Reminds me of Flight of the Concords somehow.

Have a look at the vids in Youtube. "Sharp Dressed Man," "Gimme All Your Lovin,' ". and " Legs," are great.

Is ZZ Top the band that has a drummer called Dave Beard (or something Beard) and he's the only one that doesn't have a beard?
