Last week was surprisingly quiet: no new lemmings, no reviews for my favorite perfumes and nothing amusing enough to warrant a LLL post. So I decided it was a good time to introduce a new category - A Postcard From Undina. From time to time I plan to publish a picture of something I like, experienced or saw – with some notes from me or just a “blank” postcard.
40 years, the same three guys, the same three chords.
Billy Gibbons
It was a very enjoyable August night at a beautiful venue with rock legends.
Wish you were there.

Did you go see them with a “Sharp Dressed Man?”
Yep. Here’s the Setlist for that concert.
LOL, is was referring to your better half!!!
Oh, boy… I am old and slow…
Yes, of course! Him and three other friends – all of them being much bigger fans of the group than two of us together.
Love it! Never had you down as a ZZ Top fan Undina! Looking forward to more postcards.
Yeah, yeah, I’m that old
I wouldn’t have predicted your ZZ Top fandom either! But aren’t they fabulous. Here in Texas, there is a series of tourism
TV commercials advertising the lifestyle and attraction of Houston. One of the spots features ZZ Top taking you around the city, showing you their favorite places. I must say it’s pretty convincing!
I’ve never seen such commercial – it must be fun!
I found the video!
Echoing the thoughts of Tara and Susan, I NEVER would have pegged you as a ZZ Top fan! I love that quote from Billy Gibbons you put at the top of the photo. It’s funny, I don’t really care that much for their music except for that “Sharp Dressed Man” song, but I do think they would be a lot of fun to see in concert.
Ok, I feel like I have to defend myself
I’m not a crazy fan – of ZZ Top or any other group/musician.
Glad you enjoyed the concert and I too never would have pegged you as a ZZ Top fan.
The Mountain Winery is such a perfect stage – it would have been hard not to go to see them there
I do enjoy Sharp-Dressed Man, although it’s bittersweet now because the song was one of the favorites of a BIL that’s died; but my fave ZZ Top moment is the guest appearances that Billy Gibbons occasionally makes on the TV show Bones.
Yes!!! I also love his Bones appearances.
A conversation the other day with our friend:
I: 40 years of concerts! They are old!
My friend: Yeah, grandfathers. Angela had a kid, remember?
Love your new category! It is fun to get postcards. I still send and receive them every once in a while, but rarely. What fun!
One of my friends suggested it when I was discussing with her what else I wanted to do with my blog. She helped me to shape up the idea I had.
That is awesome! I am loving the postcard idea too.
Kinda’ curious: did they spin their guitars around?
No!!! They had different guitars and these didn’t have the same mechanism (we were just discussing how they were able to do that) so no spinning.
Oh man! All their guitars should spin!
