Fans mainly remember Deadwood, HBO’s gritty Western drama, for its leads, but more than a few big-name stars appeared on the show as well.
This might be a bit of a cheat since ZZ Top is comprised of more than one person, and they’re also not actors; however, they certainly were notable guest stars for the show. This famous band is known for their hit songs like “Legs” and “Sharp Dressed Man.
Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill, the two heavily bearded members of the classic rock group, show up in what ended up being the series finale. They appear uncredited as townsmen, and given the look of the people of Deadwood, they blend right in.

WOW!! I can’t believe it. The other movie they were in Back to the Future. They also looked like towns people also.
We need more shows like Deadwood. And more of those rocking star’s. Nice look!
Billy, gimme that guitar and take this Hollywood movie contract.
Only goes to show that beards are timeless !
Everyone’s favourite band! So inspiring. Respectful of their fans and their own success , and it’s a “ pinch me” moment when I stop to think “ I’m actually going to see ZZ TOP ( again, again) after forty eight years of first hearing them! And they continue to make great relevant cool music… magic!
Their music brings me cool memories of my dad. I listen the bands’ music when I’m working in the yard or in the garage. I’m close to 50 years old, but the music takes me back to when I was a kid and my dad would pick my brother and I up from school. I hear the sounds of that “little old band from Texas”, and the nostalgia sets in, and I find myself grinning, alone. The moment is all mine. Thank you sir, and gentlemen for keeping my dads energy alive.
Billy also had a recurring role on the TV series Bones as Angela’s rockstar father.
