Request for ZZ Top Set Lists for 2008 In Your Face Tour

Hey everyone:

There is a huge amount of interest in what ZZ Top is playing on this tour. So if you wrote down a full set list, please post it here or send it to us at:

zztopeurope2007@yahoo.com

So far we have been hearing some complaints that the set list is not really that "special" for this tour. But we also hear that they are playing some rare stuff, including a cover of Hendrix' "Hey Joe," which we heard they were working on. (They played "Foxy Lady" last year and have also been working on "Purple Haze.")

So let us know what you see or hear at the shows. People are interested, and in fact the most popular search terms used by people that lead them to this site are "zz top set list 2008." So share the info and let us know. We're still looking for the full Wichita set list and for any feedback from Ft. Smith.

In Your Face -- TODAY

Well, today, Friday September 26, 2008, is the big day. The start of ZZ Top's new "In Your Face" tour, a tour in which the band promises to dig deep ad pull out some golden oldies from their first four albums.

The tour kicks off today in Wichita, followed by shows in Fort Smith Arkansas, Tulsa, and St. Louis. We are trying to get to one of those first shows, but if we don't, we will for sure see them next week in Nashville at the Ryman Auditorium.

The big question is, what will the set list be? And will any of the top choices from our little poll (see right-hand sidebar) make it into the set list?
