I will be seeing George in three preformances on Rock Legends Cruise , leaving Dec 1, 2011 to Bahamas, I will see 18 bands on board , including ZZTop , Johnny Winter , Blackfoot, Dickey Betts and others !!!! Rock on George ! I love you !!!
i have seen him many times. the house of blues is the best venue. saw him at bass hall in ft. worth, more of an orchestral hall and a whole bunch of old white people just sat there. me, i moved to an empty section and danced all night. i honestly believe it's the venue he plays in. hob is his kinda joint. bass hall, not so much.
I own this DVD. Kickass all the way! Seen Mr Thoroughly Good 3 times (82, 85, 07) and he is like a good bottle of bourbon. Just keeps getting better with age!
OH! At the 85 concert, my brother and I had front row seats, and both were "knighted" by Sir George. Pretty killer.

I used to party with GT when they were the Delaware Destroyers. Back in the seventies....Stone Balloon.....Newark, De. N E 1 else on here know what I'm talkin' 'bout? Man, we used to ROCK that eff-ing joint! HELL yeah!
@dementia321 I'd say Doors and GT did it the best. No dis to Bo Diddley, but if Doors and GT coulda jammed on this together it woulda been a motherfucker!
Bo Diddley may have done it first, but George did it right. don't bother arguing, most of the post I see show a lack of skill, and knowledge. And I ain't hating on Bo.
@bigjimmyplays Apparently you haven't heard Ronnie "The Hawk" Hawkins do it. Check out his version with 'The Band' on 'The Last Waltz', it's way better!! George's version is just a copy of Ronnie's interpretation.
@bigjimmyplays did You get pyd for that post?The doors had made a lot bettter version of this song,not to mention Bo!I've heard better one on jam nite in my local pub!
Jeezuz!! This is probably one of the best versions I've heard. But how the hell could anyone who's not in a coma sit still to this?? And what seven idiots gave this a thumbs down? (Maybe Justin Bieber lickspittles) Bo would be happy his legacy passed on to the likes of GT.
Good question why is everyone sitting????? I went to a George Thorogood concert and if they had not bothered to put in seats at all it would not have made a difference because none of us sat down.
Ive been to over six of his shows over the past twenty plus years . In the early days we were on our feet all the time , the girls were taking off their clothes and giving head while we smoked bombers and drank our fill . Now ...... well were the old duffers that sit for most of the show and rock back and forth .
just saw them in San Antonio last month, fantastic concert....crowd was hot and rowdy, George came out for three encores.....loved the Texas fans.....
seen em support the stones in 82. this vid doesnt do justice i think to hearing this band live outdoors on a sunny day with the volume up to 12 heh heh. i had a girl on me shoulders for theirs and stones set , two inches shorter now, GREAT TRIBUTE TO BO!
Back in the early 80's he did a 50 days/50 states tour. I saw him at the University of Rhode Island. He rocked the house with almost 3 hrs of non stop music. He had the peeps dancing in the aisles.
@crackdown235 Doesn't have anything to do with Music scene there it has to do with fact that the audience is sitting during this song why? Either they don't like George doing his version of Bo Diddley's song or there is something cause if watch the Bad to Bone video from this concert the audience is now up on that song.
@theponezone To drunk to find out, just lookin for a favourite track, I bet this is England mate!!! To beaten down, don't drink, don't smoke, don't eat that, don't do this, defo don't enjoy yourselves, wtf, rise up brothers and sisters, this is what life's about, don't let these mofo's tell you how to live. ride fast , live hard!!
his concerts make ya wanna flop around like a Mexican jumping bean on fuckin' acid..saw him and the DD's in '81 in Vancouver and nearly went insane pounding my head off everything in sight..pure guitar grinding power and awesome drums and sax to boot..
Track 15 is a remix with heavy drums on the the original CD. I just rediscovered it from my archives- listened to it like 10 times today on Bose in the 'Vette with the top off in 93 degree sun- nothin better- YEEHHEE.. I can't find the remix on YT.
