ZZ Top

It's only fitting that we share with you the best rock songs of 1985 the way we did it back then .... with a mixtape.

Rock still rolls through the years.

What hot new tickets do you need to pick up? We've got tour announcements from Ghost, Killswitch Engage, Alice Cooper, Pixies, Unto Others and more.

The 17-string bass may have been a hit, but the ZZ Top bassist who found the instrument now has some regret.

You certainly cannot say that Tim Montana has not worked hard over the course of his career. I got to know Tim back when he was pushing his first single, "Butte, America" way back in 2007 and he was working hard then as he came to our radio stations personally and convinced us to give the song a few spins on the local airwaves. He had recently returned from school in California where he had studied under the legendary Johnny Hiland, which while impressive, was just the tip of the iceberg.

Midnight leader Athenar serves up some killer band recommendations for fans of Motorhead and Venom.

We can definitely chalk this one up in our weird and kinda creepy category. According to a recent post in the Butte 411 Facebook group, a man with an axe showed up at the Wise River Club late Tuesday night and attempted to gain entry into the cafe and bar area. But what makes this stand out is that the dude was carrying an axe.

Billy Gibbons talks about how ZZ Top's iconic beards began.
