Allen Theatre: ZZ Top

 The passing of Frank Beard had me recalling their Allen Theatre appearances.

From Scene, December 5 - 11, 1974.

This was the show when a leg of the power feed into the building blew out during the sound check, forcing stagehands to do a bunch of workarounds, and the show went on.

From Scene, June 27 - July 4, 1974.

This show was the source of numerous Lovomotiv GT longplayers which were handed out prior to the show.
