ZZ Top’s The Big One tour currently has upcoming stops slated for Fresno, Califonia, on Friday and in Saratoga, New York, and Modesto, California, this weekend. Earlier this year, the band extended its 2026 tour with nearly two dozen new dates for the summer.
“It’s true that we’ve been spending a lot of time on the road, and the more we’re out there, the better it feels,” Gibbons said in a press release announcing the new shows, per Ultimate Classic Rock.
“It’s a good time for us and for the generations of fans who appreciate what we do,” he said. “We’ve been at it for quite a while — something like five decades — and it seems we’re getting good at it, so there’s no reason to slow things down. Let’s rock!”
