Group shot of World Texas Tour road crew.
You may recall a series of Bullshit On threads doubting tales of ZZ Top touring with longhorn steer, bison, vultures, goats, barnyard cats, and rattlesnakes onstage. The continuing quest to validate ZZ Top’s purported onstage livestock display for its 1976 Worldwide Texas Tour has taken a baby step forward with the following photo, provided by Townsman jungleland2. Let’s see who’s willing to shoot down the veracity of the flying bison pictured behind the band! Undeniable evidence…after the jump!
A bison is also the name of a particular modern dance leap. Perhaps there was a whole lot more going on on that ZZ Top stage!
No, no, no. I own that book. The item to review is not any “flying bison” in the background; it’s the rattlesnake under the lucite pyramid in the foreground.
I see that. FILE UNDER: Big Whoop!
Didn’t Alice Cooper bring a python onstage with him prior to 1976? I don’t think he kept his snake under (Plexi)glass.
SHOW ME THE BISON! SHOW ME THE BUZZARDS! SHOW ME A STINKING PRAIRIE DOG!
