From 1995 through 1999, ZZ Top continued their road-tested run as one of rock’s most distinctive live bands, carrying their signature blues-rock sound into a new era of touring and production.

These years also represent the final chapter of Showco as an independent company before its sale to Clair Brothers in 2000. This section of the archive collects Showco-related materials connected to ZZ Top during 1995–1999—including passes, itineraries, crew shirts, photographs, production documents, memorabilia, and other surviving pieces as they’re located and digitized.

I’m building this archive by hand and will continue adding materials as more items are identified and preserved.
