Wollongong Venue Distances Itself From Billy Gibbons Australian Show Disaster

Anita’s Theatre in the Wollongong suburb of Thirroul has distanced itself from the Billy Gibbons debacle after the ZZ Top legend performed just three songs on his first night and four the second night at the venue on the weekend.

Wollongong newspaper The Illawarra Mercury claims fans were outraged by the amount of time the less than enthusiastic Gibbons devoted to his fans. “ZZ Top fans have branded frontman Billy Gibbons’ “Up Close and Personal” tour a waste of money and demanded refunds after the legend failed to impress at shows in Thirroul,” reporter Desiree Savage wrote.

Gibbons was on stage for just 15 minutes.
