"It's been five decades, and I think we're starting to get pretty good at this!," says guitarist Billy Gibbons. "We're just as excited to be back in Texas this May playing our bluesy kind of rock as when started with in '69. The beards, Frank excepted, are perhaps a bit longer, yet nothing else has changed much and we're keeping it that way."
