Billy Gibbons, 70, is the lead guitarist and lead singer of ZZ Top if his beard didn’t give it away. Early in his career, Gibbons founded The Moving Sidewalks, which served as an opening act for The Jimi Hendrix Experience, allowing him to become close friends with Jimi.

Joe Bonamassa

Here’s why Joe is on this list. Joe Bonamassa famously opened for B.B. King when he was just 12 years old. B.B. King said that when he first started playing, the crowd fell silent for a moment when they realized it was the kid who was making those sounds. However, once the truth was revealed, the audience went wild, and Bonamassa played in front of huge crowds ever since.
