It gotta be a young ZZ Top, with those beards.

Yea, the beards kinda give it away, don't they?

Guess who is in the first picture?

Well I misinterpreted your question as implying one of them might be you. I'd have picked the tall one. (Had to Google ZZ top)

Pappy: we have WOOLWORTHS out here in Australia. They are one of the largest food retailers along with COLES.
