False Alarm. Apologies.

Happened over a year ago. I should have done my usual checking.

Mea culpa.

“We are saddened by the news today that our Compadre, Dusty Hill, has passed away in his sleep at home in Houston, TX. We, along with legions of ZZ Top fans around the world, will miss your steadfast presence, your good nature and enduring commitment to providing that monumental bottom to the ‘Top’. We will forever be connected to that “Blues Shuffle in C. You will be missed greatly, amigo.”

Another piece of my youth, gone...

I'm sorry to hear this, one of the top bands of all time, IMO.

No. That's not ZZ Top.

This happens a lot depending on the site. They get paid for "clicks" and if they get people to look, they get money, no matter how old the story is...

 

[insolent imp]

No. That's not ZZ Top.

that asshole Phil Anselmo is trying to bring back pantera.

Anything for a buck, I suppose.

You almost gotta laugh. A year old celeb death gets a current event post because the apology for not posting the death a year ago is current? It sounds something like a Biden apology.
