[thinkingstuff]

[masteranto]

[TangelTingelBob]

somehow reminds me of michael Jackson´s Thriller...

kinda creepy :D

[jimbo111589]

Aren't white people just great?

[hillfolkloki996]

this is an awesome hootenany got right here

[Dzuted]

I always get offended when people say "white people cant dance" but ive had enough now

[horaldo11]

Slim dusty does a great version of this, slightly different but

[gemkilt]

Turn the music off and watch the mental cunts move hahaha

[TooLameToDie]

The days of inviting fans on stage to dance are long dead...god bless George Thorogood.....

[Wheelz12]

@TooLameToDie Nah Iggy still keepin' it real every time is see him live he invites a bunch of people on stage with the song "Real good time".

God bless Iggy and George and so many more!

[TooLameToDie]

@Wheelz12 Yeah..but for the most part it's a dead practice. There still are a few performers out there that believe in showing the fan a good time, but by and large you can't even "belly up" to the stage without having to push through a line of security guards...It's just sad.

[MURKYDEEP100]

that dude in the dungarees at 1.25 is the shit, i'll have one of whatever he's had.

[tomipro]

thats 80s party rock shufflin right there

[888duty]

[JrBills2010]

hahaha when he toldsome people to dance never in a million years would i imagine they would start dancing like that at 1:24 ....ESPECIALLY the guy in overalls hahahahah

[MrTravisbobavis]

[Onazol17]

OMG! The poor man had 2 beg 4 people 2 dance n then when they finally do it's 2 a song that's not easy 2 dance 2 so it's total chaos! Hilarious! Everybody is doin their own thing, HA HA HA:-)

[keef186]

[RBOB4200]

[alijav091]

I guess these guys were better off at the back.. fckin hilarious

[13stryker1]

the 1980 blues moshpits

[BulldozerBri]

Maybe the audience scored some seriously righteous cocaine before they all danced their brains out. I dunno ... sounds like fun to me.

[mjkranig]

No retards there. 31 years ago you were a just a little boy. George was an opening act at the time, you do the math.

[LORDGOAT1976]

Didnt Johnny Cash originaly do Im On Fire, that Bruce coverd

[GOTITWET]

lmao



[hardkunt]

AHHHHHH Hahahahahahahaha this is the funniest dancing i have ever seeen!!!!! AHHHHHH HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

APART FROM ''GO WHITE GUY''....I RECOMMEND WATCHING THAT :p

[brick0rockwell]

White people dancing... like they're on cocaine

[zjbeast]

I love this. Johnny Cash remix.. or...??

[brick0rockwell]

@zjbeast yeah, this is a Johnny Cash song. Though "Cocaine Blues" is also an old blues standard; a whole 'nother song with the same name

[billinwilliamston]

Reminds me of when I saw George at the Bus Stop in East Lansing somewhere around the same time. Took a while to get acclimated to seeing him rock out in an absolutely hideous disco.

[AtWarWithGod]

LMFAO

[TheMinigalz]

nice dancing boys

[750jrod]

germans ain't got no soul

[Stonerboi99]

Hillbilly dancing! : D

[REVW196]

HA HA HA!!!!! It's like watching Seinfeld :)

[jotsmee68]

From that laid back nation who brought us the holocaust, I present German dancing.

[iviesmith1]

[TheOriginalShredneck]

[longlivetheking58]

George manages to keep a straight face during that spectacle.

[DenActivist]

OMFg! They look like the zombies from the George Romero's "The Living Dead." LOLOLOLOL

[mdejovifan2]

[FukinWonderful]

[theblobishere92]

I bet thats my father all coked out dancing like a fool up front.. Was it ok to dance like that, or was it just everyone that took enough acid to act like a fool in front of all those people

[Patatenhannes]

In the 80's, germans didn' know englisch very well.

indeed, that was a retarded generation...

2 much drugs..

[Leichenfaeule]

@Patatenhannes you, my friend, are talking bullshit.

[babytiger28]

the dancing spaz with the check shirt looks like Billy Connolly with a lit cigarette down his back.

[aequitas3]

If you are on rockpalast learn from the dead. You dont need lyrics to get the crowd moving. Music is the Ur language. check out grateful dead and pete townsend grugehall germany 81

[LordCinderWalk]

What a dead fucking house.

george was thinking.. "damn at least i get paid for this".

[flynnlovestrong]

That's why those people are dancing so funny. Their German!!!!!!!!! Gooden foffen shnitzle hoofens good times! Thank you for Octoberfest Germany!

[foch41]

[Veith86]

@doglips1958 German chickens would make you dance like a punk in the ball hail

[arseface1234]

why would he want to sound like johnny cash?

george thorogood and johnny cash have completely different styles

dont watch it so i dont need to see all your complaints kids

[coolhandloc1]

his version of this song is worse than those peoples' attempt at dancing

[lewbowski3161]

It looks like the destroyer was playin a benefit concert for a bunch of retards

[maZZiveAttack]

@lewbowski3161 It's a shame that the people he ask to come up and dance never showed up LOL

[MrGergen]

@lewbowski3161

[spectremuffin]

@lewbowski3161 Either a retard concert or a benefit for epilepsy.

[Playingpants]

[kenthedizzl]

[dwrdtoler2000]

What a bunch of cry babies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[aceshighsays]

so thats how you're supposed to dance to this song..... kinda goofy

[nirvana1134kc]

sounds like if you were there it would be better

[The22Jackaroo]

Saw him 86' in Hershey,Pa.-very good live;better than studio!

[KKV13]

fuckin terrible

[nnellezz]

thiss is really badd

[muzzster1970]

I agree it doesn't sound the best-especially with the sax and the bad mix.I guarantee if you listen to the studio version from their self titled album,you'll change your mind!

Muzz from Downunder

[GitFiddlesErCool]

What the fuck are you going on about? This is a video of George Thorogood playing "Cocaine Blues". It has NOTHING to do with religion or evolution or any of that stuff, man. Are you foreign or just retarded?

[SotR59]

For those of you arguing over whether G.T. does drugs, this is a really old country song from the 1940's and George just covered it. It's been done a ton of times by all kinds of musicians and it's self is a re-write of an older song called "Little Sadie".

[HonRevPTB]

Geez you need to settle down! Sounds like you're on some coke!!!

It's just a fun song.

[skumsnekker]

Only users loose drugs

[nerzk]

Germans dancing.

[HonRevPTB]

LOL! Right on!!! At least they're not goose stepping hey?

[throwdown5000]

IS that what "dance was back then O.O those must of been the pioneers

[SpartanSapper26]

Ha! You must be 14 or something. Look at the year and the location. 1980- Germany. C'mon thats not even that long ago. Pioneers? are you serious?

[throwdown5000]

Lol ya that is actually 7 years before my time

[mubirshu]

So he goes to all that trouble to get girls to come out to the dance floor to dance with the guys... and then he sings a song about a guy who kills his girlfriend? How romantic!

BTW, it's thought the song was written by TJ Arnall in 1947. It was a reworking of an old traditional song called "Little Sadie". (So says Wikipedia, anyway.)

[Anaheimfan]

It is most definitely a rework "I shot woman down, went right home and went to bed, I stuck that lovin 44 beneat my head" "Met a little sadie and I shot her down. Went right home, got into bed, 44 pistol under my head."

[burton1rome]

seen george a few times years back, great shows, but did ya notice when he stops singing all the songs are the same lol.

[Gilbrox1]

Went to see him last night he was fantastic first time I have seen him live unbelievable if anyone gets the chance its worth it brilliant!

[texaspilcher]

George remembers how we all danced back then,remember the sock hops?

[nosrednugj]

The sound quality could be better. Drums are too loud and guitars are too quiet.

Great song though.

[dimebagCFH420]

Don t ask me why but when i seen this video for the first time for some reason i couldnt stop lookin at that guy at 1:25 the one that looks like hes freakin out with the blue overalls LOL

[blogtips]

Saw the destroyers in Burlington Vermont many years ago - surrounded by rednecks or whatever you call them up there - they've always kicked ass!

slide it on George!

[waarismijnkat]

hahahaha i laughed my ass off at 1:25 haha,

[PISTOLcm]

Good god those dances are aweful. They look like they're having a seizure.

It's cool to see what the 60/70s generation were up to though.

[wikidsupra]

Willie Dixon wrote this song years ago..

[devilandjesusHeb]

It was written by TJ Arnall,first recorded by  originally recorded by Roy Hogsed in 1947, but anyway..... Best version of this song is JC or Hank III

[groffel123]

johnny cash's version is the best

[ilknockuout]

dam how many people sang that song?? is it cash who wrote it

[saberjett]

Thanks again, 'Slide, love this tune. Pretty gruesome crowd though, no wonder he couldn't get any chicks out on the floor.

[d67529]

this sounds like the benny hill version!

[southernrockdrummer]

Die Deutschen tanzen wie Idioten! LOL

[Wash89]

George Thorogood Kicks ass. Great drivng tunes...... Got to love that German dancing

[malepigdotcom]

Great song. That's not dancing...that's a scene from Night Of The Living Dead.

[knutervalve64]

love this song but i prefer the 1st version

[SkullCowboy333]

George is beyond cool, hard to buy that he is not from the South.

[sleepyeddiejames]

The studio version by George of this tune is pretty good.

[potatodar]

yyyeeeeaaaaahhhhh!!!!!

[mojo1165]

great song!

amazing artist!
