Twice for me. It would have been a third time, but that concert had to be canceled after he got injured.
Fun Fact #1: Dusty and Billy were the biggest reason I decided to grow out my beard. Sadly, genetics has conspired against me, and, even despite the fact that I haven't dared to shave it off (maybe taking a bit off the sides or trimming some stray hairs, but nothing more) since shortly before I graduated high school, it's not even at Russian Novelist length, let alone ZZ Top lengths. Also, the first of the ZZ Top concerts I went to, someone mistook me for an Orthodox Jew. Evidently, they didn't think that the reason I grew my beard out was right there on stage a couple minutes prior.
Fun Fact #2: I was wearing the T-shirt I got from my last ZZ Top concert (one where they co-headed with John Fogerty) yesterday, the same day I heard Dusty died.
Comparing the Universal Oneness of All Life to Yo Mama since 2010.
