George Thorogood And The Destroyers' 'Good To Be Bad Tour: 45 Years Of Rock' Heads to Town Hall

For the past 45 years, it's been very good to be George Thorogood And The Destroyers. In 2019, their "Good To Be Bad Tour: 45 Years Of Rock" is coming to Town Hall on Wednesday, September 25 at7:30 P.M., and will prove why "it's good to be bad" like never before. Tickets are $46, $66, $86 (plus applicable fees), and will be available through Ticketmaster (Ticketmaster.com, 800.745.3000) starting Friday, April 19 at 10:00 A.M. ET.

Since 1975, George Thorogood And The Destroyers have sold more than 15 million albums, built a classic catalog of hits, and played more than 8,000 ferocious live shows. They broke records with their "50 Dates/50 States" tour, delivered landmark performances at Live Aid and on SNL, and became mainstays of radio, MTV and stages worldwide for more than two generations. Through it all, that have remained one of the most consistent - and consistently passionate - progenitors of blues-based rock in pop culture history.

For Thorogood and his longtime band - Jeff Simon (drums, percussion), Bill Blough (bass guitar), Jim Suhler (rhythm guitar) and Buddy Leach (saxophone) - the power to rock audiences has been both their battle cry and creed since forming. "It wasn't about the amount of people we drew, but rather the impression we made," George remembers. "I asked myself, 'Are we reaching them? Do they want more?' And we knew from the very first set that we had something special."
