Great thread / story, Brad!

I hadn't heard this before...


I was a card-carrying member of the "ZZ Top International Fan Club" back in my law school days.

Still have the key chain...


I lived in Toronto then, and got first dibs on choice seats for their concert when they came to town.

Needless to say, my toughest choice was which 3 of my school chums to bring...


I lived on campus, so my mail was still going to my parents' home, and I still remember my Mom calling one day and saying that there was what looked like a very important envelope in the mail for me, possibly related to my schooling.

I ask her to open it and read it to me.

It was the latest newsletter update from the fan club...

Still laugh about it to this day...


Needless to say, the show was amazing.

It was their "Eliminator" tour.

One of my buddies was so taken w them, that he drove the 250 miles from Toronto to Ottawa to see them again the following night.

And this was in the middle of exams...
