Yup, me too.

Must be ZZ Top's evil clone. . . . They don't play and only lip-sync. . .

However, I've a little information on this ...ZZ (prouncde as Jee Jee or Gee Gee) is needed when You want to edit some record in production file. Sytem Supprt personals copy the files with Production HLQ to ZZ HLQ & give access to the requestor RACF ID. HLQ is ZZ so the name for sucha file ZZ-copy. Once You are done with the file same file is copied back to production file. But this process carries good risk (A proper justification & some panels needs to filled up)& responsibilty.


Hey Dick,

Is this that ZZ naming convention is not common through out the shops?

Hello,

Yes, it is not overly common.

On the other hand - the "little ole' tribute band from Texas?" - ZZ Top was pretty much everywhere (Pronounced ZeeZee). In 1983 or so they released the Eliminator album which contained both "Legs" and "Sharp Dressed Man". Both of those music videos can be played for free. Personally, i believe the music is better than the videos, but i'd still take the car<g>.
