ZZ Top Tour Halts as Beard Steps Aside | Music News

ZZ Top’s legendary drummer Frank Beard has pulled out of their tour due to serious health issues, forcing the cancellation of their Hollywood Bowl show — with refunds issued and no rescheduling. Though Beard, 77, has missed gigs before, this time it’s a full stop, leaving Billy Gibbons and Elwood Francis to carry on with fill-in drummer Michael Monahan. The band’s iconic sound remains intact as they soldier on toward their November finale in Buenos Aires — health first, rock never stops.
