Back On The Road For George Thorogood & the Destroyers!

Summertime is just around the corner, and what would summer blues festivals be without blues-rock guitarist George Thorogood and the Destroyers? After a two-month "warm up" tour, a short breather and a trip overseas, Thorogood and crew will be back from Europe and back on the road in June, rockin' clubs, theaters, and casinos across the country through the end of summer. Thorogood and the Destroyers are touring behind their 2006 album The Hard Stuff, and rumor has it that a new album is right around the corner.

You won't find many surprises at a Thorogood show, just good old-fashioned gutbucket blues-rock with plenty of riff-happy guitar and a driving beat. Several of this tour's dates will include an opening performance by blues-rock guitarist Jonny Lang, no slacker himself in the houserockin' department. Check 'em out when they hit a city near you….
