As George Thorogood reflects on this half-century journey, he shares, "I'll admit to a warm feeling of satisfaction, maybe a bit of pride, and definitely a whole lot of gratitude. But, I must admit, fifty years doesn't feel like a long time when you love what you do. Every show we play can still feel like the biggest night of our lives."

With more than 8,000 live performances, more than 15 million albums sold, and iconic hits such as "Get A Haircut", "I Drink Alone", "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer", "Move It On Over", "Who Do You Love" and the definitive anthem "Bad To The Bone", Thorogood and his long-time band Jeff Simon (drums), Bill Blough (bass), Jim Suhler (guitar), and Buddy Leach (saxophone) continue to captivate audiences like no other. Their legendary status is underlined by the fact that they remain one of the most remarkable live acts in the world, having completed their 50 Dates/50 States Tour, participated in landmark events like Live Aid, and shared stages with legends like Muddy Waters and The Rolling Stones.
