George Thorogood & The Destroyers - It Wasn't Me

[cassie371000]

Saw GT in 1983 at the Capitol in Sydney, some guy ran on stage playing air guitar .

and George just rock on.

[badbrainaj]

excellent ! 

[guitarslinger48]

I talked to him once years ago and asked him why he finger picks. He told me he could never master the use of a pick. I have the opposite problem. I still can't master finger picking!!

[drummmerfish]

[LHcountryboy1]

[georizzo]

What was wrong with that girl when he walked down into the audience?

[feabas1]

[Lrpesme48]

@georizzo I wondered that myself, she must've been on some of those German don't appreciate music drugs.

[minidave54]

[beautifulsarah100]

So sad he has been totally underrated his entire career. Him AND his band kicks ass!

[godkingRoss]

3:20 'on yer bike!'

[eddums]

Saw him last year in the UK and it was rockin

[DerEchteBold]

that could be very cool without the cheesy sax

(softens it up way too much)

[lnaneRexxx]

this may be proof of a deity.

[stewajf]

Dude playing air guitar right up front shakes his head so violently his glasses fly off.

[madFlam1]

white people ruin everything

[rsalmon63]

[gir5100]

[ThaatsCool221]

[dougreid46]

We should export this instead of drone missiles.

[shinybald36]

drums are so been a long time, but wtf zep was heavylee infl by american RnR

[Rockinghorserider1]

See the guy right up front in the blue pullover shaking his head? at about 1:12, looks like he shook out his gum or dental appliance.

[GermanShepherdWolf]

Remember seeing him in the Trenton War Memorial I think in 1980 or so... was amazing!!!!!!!!!

[youaretheblues]

amazing

[beta757]

Reminds of the long lost tapes at Roise's Cantina.

The guy ain't very pretty but he can sure play that guitar.

And what about those guys in the crowd in the polyester? What a hoot.

[IngtogBas]

[Rockinghorserider1]

It was ME! Good job, George.

[MrDizzeebeep]

[fuckyourouldoll]

[graybeard420]

@fuckyourouldoll You make the Meteors come to Detroit and we'll get George to Ireland!

[russellrosario]

@fuckyourouldoll maybe you could offer him an irish 7 course meal,a 6-pack and a potato

[fuckyourouldoll]

@russellrosario or maybe you could suck my balls

[russellrosario]

@fuckyourouldoll you dont have balls,that thing down there where it looks like you got hit with an ax is called a vagina,that why why it stinks

[beta757]

The perfect guy song.

[fuckyourouldoll]

[RandyD52]

Outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[TheOriginalBedazzler]

Haha! Did that guy ask for Rock-n-Roll? Love you George baby!!!

[Lrpesme48]

Ich liebe George, :)

[rubyrose456]

just love this, like a Valentine it is, with GT&D playing just SO Good. But, especially irresistible is Thorogood, with his sliding, singing, swaggery sweet-talk and banter, he is in full possession of audience's adoration, without doubt! SO GOOD!! GT is adorable! Full of charismatic "Boy" charm, for sure! Interesting, too, are what appear to be several little Dramas, seeming to take place because of GT's particular power to charm AND Rock! What do you think?

[Rockinghorserider1]

@rubyrose456 I could go for him myself, and I'm straight.

[russellrosario]

@Rockinghorserider1 no you arent straight,not if you say that,fudgepacker,haha

[Rockinghorserider1]

@russellrosario How sweet of you to say so, Queenie.

[ShadowWanderer1]

[steve89z]

[1001608]

CHUCK BERRY!!

[wyatt1175]

I thought the bass player looked familiar---couple years before his big league career started with the Red Sox, ya know money was tight back then and the women were scarce,and what a better gig than to play with George---...lol

[smautomat]

Hey, I know that George was a decent baseball player, but how did he manage to get Wade Boggs to play bass?

[wyatt1175]

Nice one-----it is Wade Boggs.

[bagrat22]

@smautomat LMAO Boggs

[52381a]

This is some awesome stuff. Our radio just plays his drinking songs,

[tonniesmolders22]

This is rock 'n roll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[littlefred811]

He used to play the Little Bear in Evergreen, CO during the mid 70's. Always a great rocker!

[videodude4]

That drummer is like a robot! Awesome song!

[EasyStu007]

das is im rockpalast^^ greetings from germany

[supergirmy]

great :)

[Rockinghorserider1]

The wife & I went to one of his shows in Tulsa, Oklahoma during his '50 States in 50 Dates' tour. The music was great, but we never saw him. As soon as he came onstage everyone stood on their tables and chairs, and stayed there. I might mention that he came on at midnight, and was still rockin' when we left (at 5:00 the next morning). Tickets were $11.00 each. Something of a bargain. .. We could've stayed home and turned the stereo up all the way .

[martijnspeed]

HEY!....  It waddn't me!

[bunkman64]

Dance of the Living Dead..

[TheJerrylynch]

[JJSaxon666]

[IronicallyVague]

This can't be legal...

[allaboard70]

"It Wasn't Me" is the best song George Thorogood ever have recorded or played. Let It Rock!

[jackobcooper]

Think the guy in the orange boiler suit has escaped from Jail to rock to George Thorogood!

[wyatt1175]

Oh yea, George was a pretty good baseball player in his younger days (semi-pro), but we're all glad he stuck to rockin!!!

[wyatt1175]

Going to see George and Johnny Lang August 21. Been going to see George since the early 80's and he still flat out brings it!!! Awesome guitar player and his band rocks too----here is to never getting old George, you are the man!!!

[jamezbond78]

I just got back from seeing George and Johnny. Awesome show!

[wyatt1175]

The man never dissappoints. Another great show at Grand Casino Hinkley (MN) Friday night 8-21-09. His age is showing, but doesn't slow him down. He just flat out brought it again-- AMAZING TALENT!!

[lacika67]

FUCKIN GOOD

[martybunyan12]

Just saw him two nights ago and he burnt the place down! Almost 60 years old and hasn't lost a thing. ROCK ON GEORGE!!!!!

[CreadorMex]

Shit, I was 2 fucking young to see this guy live :(

FUCK YOU 93!!! :'(

[sloeleek]

[XLR8RBC]

Thanks for posting this - I saw George back in 1981? Edmonton, Kinsmen Field House. 1000 people? Definitely one of my favorites. Thanks for the memory!

[JASONJAMES74]

[stevenedgar]

[pawnshops]

George you top the bill !

[acdcrocks101]

The man rocks! His band too! Period!

[pls24]

it sweet how he finger picks the whole song man.

[saberjett]

My cousin saw him at an outdoor venue in the early 80's(?), raining so hard no one would play. They just stood there getting colder and wetter 'till George came out in a poncho (or trash bag?) and RIPPED untill the rain stopped. He STILL talks about that. I Saw him at college in NH, he just blew the freakin' roof off the place. thanks for the post, that guy burned like the sun back in the day...

[chucufarley]

I was at Ole Miss in '83 or '84 when they did their 50 States in 50 Days tour at a little bar called Abby's Irish rose in Oxford MS. They started this song and I grabbed some random sorrity chick and made it to the 50 sq ft dance floor before she had a chance to answer and George started playing this song. He jumped down and started playing on the otherwise empty dance floor with us.

I think I did her. Not sure though. George was great though.

[southernrockdrummer]

No one can jam any better than these guys!

[treyrules]

any tabs available for this song and im just your good thing? why are they so impossible to find?

[billycosboy]

Noone is as bad as George!

[abcpc1]

"I met a German girl in England, who was goin' to school in France, said we danced the Mississippi at an Alpha Kapa dance...it wasn't me"! GOD BLESS CHUCK BERRY annnd George Thorogood and the Delaware Destroyers!

[wink12345]

This is just as fast, driving and energetic as punk music without all of the crap that goes with a lot of punk music. In other words George Thorogood rocks!

[9496tull]
