What can be said about these three guys? Two of whom sport foot-long beards, thick black shades, and instantly transform themselves into three of the most recognizable rock-and-roll characters of the last decade.

ELIMINATOR is not just another cover band. They are three seasond veterans of the rock-and-roll trenches who have mounted a major assault on the stages of clubs and festivals throughout the midwest. ELIMINATOR is the premier ZZ TOP tribute working today!

ELIMINATOR is one rare group of preformers with the musical ability, physical appearance, and sould to recreate the low down and dirty aura of that “Little Ol Band From Texas”.

As Ron “Dustylicks” Schneider, bass player and lead vocalist once stated in an interview by showcase magazine, when asked, “Why a ZZ TOP tribute”? Ron replied… “Why should Elvis impersonators make all the money”? Mr. Licks is typical of the tongue an cheek humor both ZZ TOP and the boyzz of ELIMINATOR posses. A veteran of the regional music scene for more than 20 years, Ron fits the boots of the Dusty Hill part to a Texas T! His years as a long haul driver, going to and from Texas, have etched a Lone Star twang into his vocals that fits the sound well.

Rounding out the rhythm section is Ron Austin. As the only beardless member of the band, he bears an eerie resemblance to Frank Beard of ZZ Top, and is a top notch drummer as well as a multi-talented instrumentalist. Ron Austin has a knack of “findin’ the groove and makin’ it move”. Powerfull when needed, and all the time tasteful, he aling with Dustylicks form the perfect one-two rock-and-roll power punch.

The guitar chores are left in the beefy hands of Bobby Z. A Long time ZZ TOP fan, Bobby Z has the tone, taste and Tenacity to complete the ZZ equation.

ELIMINATOR has been in demand by organizations such as A.B.A.T.E. , D.A.R.E. , LITTLE CITY FOUNDATION, numerous motorcycle clubs, and has been seen and heard by millions on TV features from “WILD CHICAGO” to THE JERRY SPRINGERSHOW”

ELIMINATOR has performed live, several times as featured guests on the “Jonathan Brandmeier Showgram”. To quote Johnny B. after ELIMINATOR performed as the house band on his 1994 WLUP Christmas Show, “These guys kick some major ass!!! They even smell like ZZ TOP”!

With their Rip Van Winkle beards, Spinning Guitars and over 50 ZZ tunes in their arsenal, ELIMINATOR is ready to rip your crowds into a Texas sized frenzy of beer drinkin’ and hell rasin’ excitement!
