I’m just looking for some Tush.

Been into Billy Gibbons lately, and some of his music. In an interview, Dan Rather asked him the meaning of the ZZ top song “Tush”. I always thought it was about getting some tail, but it’s not. He explained it came from Texas slang about being a “tush hog”.

They got it from a Gene Vincent song from 1967 called Tush Hog

If you look up tushhog from urban dictionary, it explains it pretty well.

Life is good. I’ve got one day of work tomorrow, then off for a week. Heading up to Seattle to see my oldest daughter, her husband and my 6 month old grandbaby. She has that look in her eye; she’s going to be a good one. Starting to crawl, and each video we get makes us smile pretty wide. She has a name I think, but I call her peach.

The Easy Rider book is coming out in November —- I’ve read the rough draft, and I’m pretty happy with it. We’ll see how that turns out.

Family life is good. This last ride I came back with the thought of how lucky of a man I am. My wife is awesome, my dog is a little shit, my kids are on a good path and my bike runs.

After travelling around and renting for the last 10 years, we’ve finally decided to put down roots here. Arizona, is home. Missus Zip and I both love it, and it’s been a while since we had our own place.

Looking forward to meeting my neighbors, building my dream back yard, painting the walls whatever colors my wife wants, and being a homeowner again. Firing up the smoker, and having a bunch of bikers over. It’s been too long.

Plus I’ve got a lot of great roads here that need to be ridden.

I’m just looking for some Tush.

  1. Passing thru your way on July 23rd. Leaving Tombstone in the AM headed to Joshua Tree for 2 days, then to Ballarat for 2 days. If you get a chance check out Middlegate Station in NV. Cool place in the middle of no where on US 50. Two days ride from Gilbert.
