Saw this a bit ago. So sad. We've been lucky enough to see them a couple times over the years. I've been a big fan for a long time.
Awww man.... 
Ouch. I've been a fan of ZZ Top ever since an older brother gave me an 8-track tape of their first album in the '72-73 time frame.
I worked as an usher at one of their concerts around 1974 at the old Capital Center in Largo, MD when I had this 8 track too,

Damn, love ZZ...R.I.P. Dusty
My top band in the 70's as a kid, even now as an adult. Had all their albums in the day. If you have not watch the ZZ Top documentary on next Net Flix, highly recommended.
As a ski bum in the early 80, I had "El Loco" engraved on my 207cm Vokl Rentigers. I played this album every morning to juice me up for the day on the hill.

One of my faves.
I remember driving from Worcester to Newport one day for some oceanside pleasures. I was in my '76 Olds Delta 88 Royale.
Somewhere along the way the radio was blasting 'Cheap Sunglasses'. Stopped at a light, I looked to my right to see and hear someone listening to the same radio station, nodding their head, hiding behind some cheap sunglasses.
Small story, good memory.
I saw ZZ Top a few times and it was a thrill every time.

This is a total bummer for me and the music industry. I have been a fan forever. I have a lot of their music.
