I went to the Thorogood & ZZ Top show at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto in the early nineties...great show!!!
After the performance my pal and I pretended we knew what we were doing and chummed our way through security into a party room of record people..
The place was crammed, we grabbed a few free drinks and tried to fit in but all wasn't going perfectly smooth as some people seemed to know we didn't belong and my we're with X-Radio story was wearing thin?.
All of a sudden the doors opened, in came the ZZ boys and Billy Gibbons came straight over to me all excited and treating me like a long lost brother!.
Of course I had to go along with it all and he and Dusty hung with us through the rest of the gala and those who seemed against us before were all smiles now!.
After being presented with some BMG Music record sales award they took my pal and I back to their small private party room and we spent the evening talking cars, bikes etc..
I never did figure out who I was supposed to be but what great car guys especially Billy Gibbons!!
We laughed most of the way home to Peterboro' and did the traditional middle of the night lap of the Mosport road circuit in my old '84 Dodge half ton...the slant six didn't have quite the torque or speed up the back straight that the Can-Am ZL1's did but we got a bit sideways through turn 5!.
