I want to give a little review of the George Thorogood show I went to on Wednesday. First of all, the opening act was the Albert Castiglia band. They were a great blues band. Albert was talking about his latest album and said it went bronze. 😆 then he said “Look out Tay Tay, we’re coming for you!” I recommend you check them out if you like the blues because they were great!
George of course was incredible as always. He did all his hits and even did some stuff he hasn’t done in the past…at least when I have seen them. He has his classic lines like then he was talking he said “I am so full of shit even I can’t believe what comes out of my mouth.” Then he said, “I am going to do everything in my power to get arrested tonight…if someone is going to go to jail for rock and roll it might as well be me!” At one point he asked if the secret police had left.
I have to talk about the venue. The Van Wezel center in Sarasota. Parking was free which is rare in Florida and pretty much anywhere. The seats were big enough. I am fat…and there was a girl that was a little bit big and we were both comfortable and wasn’t rubbing against each other like we would have been in most other concert venues. There was lots of leg room and it was right on the water. If I got to the show earlier I would have walked on the pier but it’s definitely a place I would go to again. It was also less than an hour commute during rush hour so that was a plus.
At 75 years old George Thorogood still delivers a great show. It’s no secret that there isn’t much good news in the world lately, it was nice to be able to go to a show and forget about the problems in the world and enjoy a great show!
