Well, we've bought our airline ticket to Europe, and were just about to book our intra-European flights, hotels, etc. to finalize our trip this summer, when a lot of rumors started to fly. Rumors that the ZZ Top European Tour 2007 has been cancelled, that Dusty Hill needs some sort of "radiation therapy," and all kinds of other crap. Other people close to the band are denying those rumors, and insist that everything is fine. As usual with rumors, the truth probably lies somewhere in-between. All we know for sure is that two venues (Kolding in Denmark and Hovet in Stockholm, Sweden) have announced that their shows have been cancelled and that refunds will be available. Everything else is just hearsay and speculation.
We'll let you know if we hear anything else.
And whenever the tour happens, we'll be there!
