There has been a press release that ZZ Top bassist , Dusty Hill has HCV (Hepatitis C Virus) and the band has cancelled all appearences for the next few months.

If you had planned to see them I guess you need to make different plans.

I’m posting this to be able to make a plea to my friends at SDMB to get tested for this disease. I have it as most of you know, and it sucks.

Well, I’m not a big fan of ZZ Top, but I’m sorry to hear that anyone has hepatitis.
