Have you seen ZZ Top in the D-FW?
11:54 PM Fri, Jul 25, 2008 \| Permalink \| Christy Robinson E-mail \| News tips

Thor's written a story about how some people forget that two-thirds of the Houston-formed band ZZ Top are actually from the Dallas area, born and raised (find the story online here late Sunday night/early Monday, or in the Sunday paper). Dusty Hill and Frank Beard are pretty proud of their Dallas roots and have played at all sorts of venues in the area — the big ones, the legendary ones that aren't around anymore, the sketchy underground ones.

Have you ever seen the band play in the area? Tell us where, when and how it went. If you haven't, what's their best album or song?

Country singer Trent Willmon has his own computer game
	12:40 PM Fri, Jul 25, 2008 \| Permalink \| Mario Tarradell/Music Critic Bio \| E-mail \| News tips

Texan Trent Willmon sings, writes songs, records albums. He can host a TV reality competition for cowboys, act in a Western movie ... and now he has a computer game. Trent Willmon's Cold Beer and a Fishin' Pole Fishing Game is a casual, interactive game created by PlanetCazmo.com. It ties into the Amarillo native's latest single, "Cold Beer and a Fishin' Pole" from his criminally underrated new album, Broken In. Anyway, to play go to either www.countryweekly.com, www.compadrerecords.com or www.trentwillmon.com.

And isn't that cartoon version of Trent Willmon too clever?!

Did you go? I want to know who rocked, what sucked, if you had a good time or what. Look for the review here.

Didn't get your metal fix last night? There's always the Mayhem Festival tonight.
