We've got the late summer blues as ZZ Top's performance with Jeff Beck at Ravinia Festival scheduled for tomorrow night has been cancelled.

ZZ Top's bass player, Dusty Hill, reportedly slipped on the band's tour bus last night and injured his hip. As a result, all scheduled dates up to Sept. 13 have been "temporarily suspended."

Those with tickets to the Ravinia performance need not worry. Refunds will be issued automatically through the initial point of purchase, according to a Ravinia Festival representative.
