As I feared, ZZ Top has officially had to cancel their Seattle date. Industrious fellows that they are, however, they’ve rescheduled dates down the rest of the west coast and back to the east, dubbing the impromptu itinerary revisions the “Necessity is a Mother Tour.” Sadly, it was just too damn late to make something work here. I was hoping for a secret show at the Tractor, but no dice. If I had the funds, I’d fly to L.A. next weekend for sure:Rescheduled ZZ Top Dates:18 Redding, CA – Redding Convention Center20 Anaheim, CA -House of Blues21 Los Angeles, CA – House of Blues22 Rancho Mirage, CA – Agua Caliente CasinoSeptember4 Chicago, IL – House of Blues6 Sault St. Marie, MI – Kewadin Casino7 Sault St. Marie, MI – Kewadin Casino13 Washington DC – 9:30 Club14 Washington DC – 9:30 Club15 Boston – Orpheum Theatre17 Salamanca, NY – Seneca Allegany Casino18 New York, NY – Beacon Theatre19 Atlantic City, NJ – House of Blues20 Reading, PA – Sovereign Performing Arts Center
