Tribute - George Thorogood and the Destroyers

2007.08.24







PHOTO's from www.georgethorogood.com/

Last Night I saw George Thorogood at the House of Blues in Atlantic City. Tremendous raw blues performance it was a memorable evening. This is my 3rd time seeing Lonesome George and the Delaware Destroyers seems like about ever 10 years I see him in concert. They have been playing together for 35 years.

In the middle of a set the music stops, George pauses and asks the crowd, "Are ya havin a good time tonight"? Hell Yes ! I am still smiling. What a great bar band.

The played nonstop for over 2 hours with 2 encores; the last encore was 3 songs. All the favorites were played with the audience participating with many of the lyrics. Favorites like "One Bourbon One Scotch One Beer", "I Drink alone" "Get a haircut" "Who do you Love" and "Move it on over" being big crowd pleasers along with a tribute to Johnny Cash.

If you get a chance have a drinks and go see George live before “you” or “he” depart the planet.

chipotle i'm not certain whether he makes me feel young or old. it's reassuring to know, though, that you don't necessarily have to choose between burning out or fading away. (if you post neil pics now, i'll be totally green with envy.)
