ZZ Top return to Dublin on July 28, 2017 when they bring their Tonnage Tour to the 3Arena.
Tickets go on sale on Monday December 5, price to be confirmed.
The name of the trek derives from the Texans' Jeff Beck-assisted cover of seminal Tennessee Ernie Ford number, 'Sixteen Tons'.
“It’s gonna be a good time,” guitarist Billy Gibbons enthuses. “We’ve been at this long enough that we’re starting to get good. Come and see us; it’s gonna be loud and live.”
With Fab Vinny Hanley and MT-USA acting as cheerleaders, the hirsute rockers became household names here in the ‘80s courtesy of their Eliminator album, and its trio of hits – ‘Sharp Dressed Man’, ‘Gimme All Your Lovin’’ and ‘Legs’.
They’ll also be dipping into their bluesier ‘70s output with ‘Tush’ and ‘La Grange’ both promised.
