I had the unexpected pleasure of ending up backstage at the ZZ Top concert at Snoqualmie Casino last night. Co-band leaders Dusty Hill and Billy Gibbons sipped champagne and mingled with well-wishers (including Seattle-based filmmaker Jamie Chamberlin, who recently finished a documentary on the band). Being the super-fan that I am, it was thrilling enough just to see Gibbons padding about in slippers and blue-and-white striped pajamas, but it was also very kind of him to do such a swell job autographing my purse. It pretty much looks like it’s supposed to be there, doesn’t it?
