George Thorogood coming to Sandy Springs
George Thorogood and The Destroyers are coming to Sandy Springs next week.
George Thorogood and The Destroyers are bringing their “The Bad All Over the World: 50 Years of Rock Tour” to the Byers Theatre in Sandy Springs on Nov. 9: Thorogood says the tour celebrates half a century of hits, from the band’s cover of “One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer” to their now-classic originals including “I Drink Alone” and “Get a Haircut.” Of course, Thorogood’s place in music history was cemented back in 1982, when he and The Destroyers released a little song called “Bad to the Bone.” Believe it or not, the song wasn’t a huge hit when first released — but it’s since become one of the most iconic rock songs in history, used in dozens of film and TV productions, commercials, and major sporting events around the world.
