Just a brief detour from our normal course of action hear at camp JG. Seems like once a year or so the annual NAMM show becomes a topic of discussion because...

Yes and no. Actually it's not generally open to the public. NAMM is a big money making network in itself. You have to be a NAMM member to participate. Anyone...
Do they have another NAMM show in Austin, or was that a one-off event? Does Simmons usually attend? ... From: JamesGangsters@yahoogroups.com ...

Yes, they do have a 'summer' show, it's much smaller than the 'winter' show and seems to be more of a 'guitar' event. It was always in Nashville, but last year...
I think that Billy G will be at South by Southwest this year. There's a new DVD movie coming out about Gibbons and I bet the film will be showcased. ... From:...

Any more info about the DVD you mention ? Billy G (and ZZ Top) are badly under-represented in this area apart from the Trilogy stuff from Eliminator. I once...
It's a Gibbons-focused piece, rather than a Top piece, but it should contain plenty of great stuff. A lot of it will focus on Gibbons-fan interaction and his...

Don't stop there...I'm jazzed about this DVD thing you're talking about. Just a few questions, if you will. Is it a documentary? Who's behind it? What's the...
I know that they have split with Bill Ham, their loooooong (as long as I can remember) manager, which is very interesting. [Non-text portions of this message...
I can also offer this: Billy is a buddy of Rick Rubin and so one speculation is that Top and Rubin will work together. ... From: JamesGangsters@yahoogroups.com...

Don't know much more than that. The premiere was supposed to be last month, in Los Angeles, so I suppose that means it's in the can, as they say. It's more...

THAT would probably be pretty cool. I would love to hear a stripped down (free of all the bullshit effects) ZZ album with massive, in your face geetar tone. ...
Is there any news on the remasters? I think all we have now is Tres Hombres and Fandango. Are the first two albums coming out? Maybe Tejas? Any news on those?...

Well, the stuff from those albums sound great on the box set. I guess the key is sales. If Tres Hombres and Fandango sold well it could happen. If not, who...
perhaps with their split from bill ham those'll come out - or perhaps that will hamper that - i dunno - i bet ham has some kind of control over their release...
