Did anyone have more fun on stage than George Thorogood? A man that genuinely loves his craft.......and how many performers pay such homage to those that inspired them? GT brought Albert Collins on stage with him at his Live Aid performance of Madison Blues as well and that brought Albert Collins more attention that he would have ever received otherwise. Like his music or not, GT is a class act.

Me and a friend tried to get tickets to a Destroyer concert at the then Glassboro Sate College in NJ back in 1978. By the time we got there the show was sold out but we were determined to see George Thorogood that night so we decided to climb through an open window in the locker room of the Glassboro gymnasium. We jumped to the floor and to our surprise there was George, his brother, and the rest of the band sitting on the floor and locker room benches throwing down a ton of Miller High Life before the show!...George said, "Welcome to the warm-up party" as he handed us both a cold Miller. We sat and drank and bullshitted with those guys for an hour while the back-up bands performed. (It was some kind of Battle of the Bands Night). When the real show started George turned to us and said "You guys just hang with my brother and no one will bother you." We stood the entire show behind a curtain no more than ten feet from where George was performing! For a seventeen year old kid from Jersey, this was the definition of heaven! George and his brother were great guys. Very down to earth and very cool at the same time. I recall George kept saying how this was his last show before summer and wouldn't be performing again until September when softball season was over....I think he liked softball almost as much as Rock & Roll! ROCK ON GEORGE!!!!

There will never be another like him, and no other sound like his. The entire band is so massively talented. It doesn't get any better than this!

George Thorogood is just so cool! How can anyone not like the guy and that great band of his?

One thing I've always enjoyed about a George show (seen him four times) is that it doesn't matter if he's playing for 100 or for 15,000, it always feels like a rockin' blues band playing in a dark, smokey bar.

on that note.... I'll never forget that around this time (early 80's), within a year I saw him both at a less-than-full ratskellar at Nassau Community College (Long Island) and headlining at Madison Square Garden. And if memory serves, at MSG while on top of an amplifier he slipped and came down hard on one leg, though hardly missing a beat and certainly finishing the show. A few nights later there was supposed to be a live broadcast from another east coast locale (Boston?), but they had to play a previously recorded gig due to illness/injury? Always wondered if there was a connection.

Always been a George Thorogood fan (even before I knew it was him singing all those classic tunes), but never seen him perform live until now. Wow what a show, great live performer - even contends his incredible studio recordings. What a legend

Saw George for the first time in 1981 opening for the Stones at the Super Dome. He just killed it. That concert BTW broke the 33 year old world record for the largest indoor audience. Saw him again two days ago at the Ryman Auditorium. He killed again. One of the best showmen on the planet.

The Destroyers were always a great sounding live band. Every instrument sits perfectly in the mix. The Bass guitar is fat yet punchy, the sax rumbles & screams, George's guitar is full of mids with that cool boxy tone, his vocals are gritty and cut through the mix and the snare drum is deep yet still cracks. That snare sound is always a dead give away. When you hear it, you know it's the Destroyers. This band def deserved their name rather than just "George Thorogood's backing band". They were a big part of George's sound and a super tight band.

Many years ago, I went into my local bar in Toronto after work to find George Thorogood sitting at a table with Ronnie Hawkins! The only people in the bar were them, George's bodyguard and John the bartender. They invited me to have a beer with them! I was only about 18 yrs. old and so nervous! lol They immediately picked up on that and made me feel so comfortable by telling jokes and just being real true gentlemen! :) George and Ronnie were 2 amazingly talented men back then, and still are to this day!

This is George in his prime. Saw him several times while in college around ‘85ish at Nectarine Ballroom and Hill Auditorium in Ann Arbor, MI. Great memories. Keep rockin’ your life away George. Thanks for all the great music.

Whenever I listen to rock music it always reminds me of my youth. I'm 62 years old and I was born on December 15, 1959 and I remember when I was in my 20s in the 80s me and my friends had a lot of fun. We grew up in a rural town called valley center. There was a mobile home park in valley center called minseund mobilehome park on lake wholford road thats where we grew up. There was a little canal near by that we called the flume but it's actually called the escondido canal. We used to ride it from place to place with innertubes. I remember there was also stagecoach trails near by that were covered in brush and we would hike them. I remember having a bunch of friends on the San Pasqual indian reservation. I remember breaking into a dam and we would just hang out there. That was back in the 70s when we were teenagers. In the 80s I was still living in valley center and I remember living at the oakvale mobilehome park in 1980 when I was 20 and buying a camper in 1984 when I was 24 and living on my friend's property. Then in 1987 when I was 27 I moved onto my friends property on the San Pasqual indian reservation. Then in 1992 when I was 32 I moved onto my other friend's property on the San Pasqual indian reservation. Then in 1998 when I was 38 I was arrested with my Then girlfriend for drug charges. Because back then I used to do speed which is methamphetamines. I started doing that shit in 1978 when I was 18. But when I went to jail I got clean from it. Thats my life story thank you for reading.

You are a lucky SOB! He never has come here to Maine in concert as far as I know. Unless it was between 95 and 06!! I was living in Florida then with my ex. When we got married he was in the Navy, just home from deployment to Puerto Rico and back to Gulfport MS, his home base. He only had 5 months left when we got married. He was glad to get out and then when we moved to Florida for his job he joined the Army National Guard Reserves for four years, then switched to the regular Army Reserves for another four. They offered him a good bonus but he turned it down and got out altogether. Tired of playing war games I guess. Then a few years later he got tired of playing house with me and walked out on me and our two children. Just went to work and never came home one day. I had to find out that he was done with me on the phone!!! Every guy I've told the story to has called him a big, fat coward!!!!! Nineteen years with someone and you aren't supposed to just up and leave!!!! I put up with his shit for years, an affair after 12 years when the kids were little and I forgave even though when we first got married I told him if he ever cheated on me I would take everything and he'd end up with one set of clothes and a cardboard box to live in. He had to get married again to get by because his salary didn't cut it for my alimony/child support and all his bills. He's making mucho bucks now as a computer admin supervisor and on his third wife. Life can kick you in the ass sometimes and I wasted too much time crying tears over that asshole and now I'm too old to bother to find somebody else.

Loved seeing John Hammond! I loved that voice from Who Do You Love! I never knew till today what his name was & what a huge role his father played in changing the music industry! Making history! This was great to see! I used to take their cassette to work, among others & play them while I worked 3rd shift!

I liked seeing George in the crowd that last song, looking up and enjoying the show himself.

They’re big fans of each others. Charlie Watts asked for his autograph. True story!

I've never watched a concert of his, this has incredible energy and wow what a talent!! The band is awesome too wow!!

One of the best and one of my favorites. George Thorogood Rockin blues king. Made dance and sing .

This shit's crazy knowing that George is criminally underrated. He deserves SO MUCH credibility.

Oh hell yeah!! Albert would've taken that guitar out to the frickin' parking lot if the cord was long enough. Dude was putting on a show. Thanks for posting this amazing video my friend, awesome stuff indeed.

Why doesn't this have more views??? Awesome band and awesome show

En este show George Thorogood demuestra que es un gran guitarrista y tremenda máquina de rock'n'roll.

I love that this band does not focus on any member explosively. Everyone gets their time to shine and no one instrument is more important than the next

George and the gang never get old. Live is another true tale. Unreal sounds, lyrics, dancing. Enough said!

One of the best things George has done, beside good music, is that he made blues mainstream so peeps got to know blues legends. My walk started with Rockabilly, rythm and blues to blues. Still listening to all of these...once rockabilly always ;)

Very true! Along with Clapton.

Thank you for a great rock and blues show.

**Speechless** The whole band is just downright epic!

Back around this time, I was just starting to go to concerts in my early high school days. George was my 3rd one ever (maybe in '85 in La Crosse, WI). I knew all his big hits but remember just being blown away by "Bottom of the Sea," which I was hearing for the first time. I haven't given that song a whole lot of thought but hearing it here brought back some of those chills. Just something bone-stirring about it...

Come on take a little walk with me honey & tell me "Who Do You Love?" " Who Do You Love Child?" John Hammond doing this song with George is just incredible...

best live version of one bourbon,one scotch, one beer i've heard.

AMAZING !!! Man we're they having a BLAST with that song 😎🔥 ELVIN BISHOP are you kidding me !!! WOW 🤯🤯😱🤗🤩🤩🤩🤩 LOVE THAT SOLO SIR !! and just watching Georges face after he says he and the Drummer listened to ELVIN and they started Jamming Together. He looked as if he was having a Dream Come True playing with one of HIS IDOLS 🤩😎😎😎 a Great thing to share👍😎

Seen George and the boys many times over the years, always a party from beginning to end.

When I was at the University of Delaware, George lived in the dorm right next to mine, although I had never heard of him. I was interested in the blues and rock-n-roll, and my friend who lived in the same dorm as George told me that a guy there had two LPs for sale, a Chuck Berry and a Little Richard, both from 1958. I went to the room number and knocked on the door, and there were 3 guys in the room, and they sold me the 2 LPs for $1 each !! Even then I thought that that was a fabulous bargain: I would have gladly paid $5 each. I reckon that Thorogood might have been one of the 3 guys.

And Lonesome George is still out there rockin’ it. Saw him this year, last year, and many times before. Respect.

@@vinceriordan3245 I have never got to see him but oh how I wish I could someday. But that will never happen. But in my book he is the tops in rock/blues and showmanship a class act.

Wow, this concert just gets better as it progresses. I first "discovered" George when I saw the record (yes LP) in my record store, called Move It On Over, many years ago. I was hooked after listening to one track. I have seen George twice in my home town of Perth, but this concert takes the cake for me. And his accompanying artists shows his great appreciation for the men who have made the blues great and continue its progression. Thanks so much for sharing this.

I love the way he backs off and gives the sax player front and center for solos, no ego whatsoever!....you'll never see Jagger do that...

Huh......?????

Saw George for the first time way back in early 1979 at the Cabooze Bar in Minneapolis. His second lp, "Move it on Over" had just been released 2 months prior and I had read a review of it somewhere in the music press. I bought a copy and took it along with me that night. It was $4.00 at the door. He did 2 sets, at one point jumping off the stage and duckwalking the length of the bar, "annointing" customers with the neck of his guitar while never missing a note. Between sets I handed the lp to his bass player, Billy B. and he took it back to the dressing room and he, drummer Jeff S. and George all signed it in black marker. Was so blown away by the energy of the show, I called up my best friend, Kevin, and forced him to go back for another show the following night. Another $4. and another 2 sets. Still have the signed lp. Those were the days!
