Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, Aleksanterinkatu, Helsinki, Finland
Billy Gibbons strolls up. I offer my guitar. Here is my version using same guitar, amp, and backing track: and check out the rest of my videos Note added Many have commented that people are not stopping to listen. This took place on the corner of a small pedestrian street and a larger shopping street with nice shops and a tram line. Finns are respectful of personal space and tend to leave people alone, plus Billy had his back toward most people. The whole thing lasted just minutes. At 0:30 a blonde turns and perhaps recognizes him but she keeps on walking. People are just going about their business in the middle of a beautiful sunny day. Billy was out shopping with his wife when he heard me. He walked up to the corner to see who was playing. He talks about it at 1:12 of this interview from Sweden The story was picked up by Finnish media.
