I handed a joint of some Afghani to George Thorogood at a concert in 1978 he was playing at as he stood on stage in front of me playing his guitar , he took a hit did a backwards flip came back up without missing a beat handed the joint back to me . I motion'd to him to pass it to the rest of his band , so he said we'er taking a short break and he left the stage when the song was over of coarse about maybe 10 minutes later they came back out on stage and said this ones for Oregon " THE GREEN STATE " came back over to me while playing his guitar and passed what was left of the joint which was a little over a quarter of it and gave me a nod with a big grin . George is a really cool dude .
Cool ❤️
Cool 😎
This is exactly what I'd expect from him hahaha
I remember the "Afghani" we got on the coast in the late 70's, real sticky and it was a creeper bud, it would hit you twice....
I saw him and Johnny Winter opened for him. Those men put on a show and I think they were more wasted than I was.
Bad to the Bone. You gotta do that one. It will become your theme song.
AGREED!
And Move It On Over.
@Ron S I was a kid of a mere 6,7, or 8 years old and on the last day of school our bus driver put up a boom box and blasted Bad to the Bone and when we left the bus he gave us gum ( not really good gum but still )..... Oh yeah his name was Dave
Yep
A must ! I agree!!
George is a badass. "I Drink Alone" "Who do You Love" and "Get a Haircut" are all great songs, and of course "Bad to the Bone" probably his biggest hit.
I love your reactions, they make an old woman smile. and the little jiggle you do when you really get into a song is awesome
Grew up listening to Thorogood, lol. This and "Bad to Bone" and "I Drink Alone".
My nieces first dance with her dad at her wedding was *Bad to The Bone*
@@sck4070 That's an interesting choice, lol. My dance with my Dad was Billy Joel's Goodnight My Angel, which is a very sweet song he wrote to his daughter as a lullaby. First dance with the husband was Your Song by Elton John
I drink alone is my favorite
I drink alone is ace
I love Gear Jammer
George is Bad to the Bone. He even says so in a song.
White boy trying to sing the blues. He's crappy. That's second only to Goin up the Country by Canned Heat
😍
@@garyfletcher844 don't listen then🤷
@@garyfletcher844 That's racist.
Hey get it right hes babababa bad to the bone!!!!! Lololol
The studio version is hilarious. The way he says the dialogue is so funny. 😂
George really does sound this good live, I have seen him and he is great and has so much energy, a really fun performer. Elvin Bishop is a guitar god. He is about 78 now so I don't know if he is still performing, I saw him live A L-O-N-G time ago and there are no words.
George Thorogood is all party, and is ranked as a top guitarist by other guitarists like Stevie Ray Vaughn etc. I am so excited you did a George Thorogood. Great reaction !!!!
You are the only one out there that has finally played OL’ George..... thank you 🙏 .....
I think Andy & Alex, college students react, did it on one of their Drunk Reaction nights, but it was a while ago.
Ikr😍
George getting tore up from the floor up.
Video Man toking and stroking on a blunt.
"Elvin Bishop sittin' on a bale of hay; he ain't good lookin', but he sure can play"- Charlie Daniels
Here's a little bit of something to listen for:
At about 14:20, when he starts naming off what he's listening to on the jukebox, the licks that Elvin Bishop is playing are actually in the styles of the people he's naming off. It just goes to show how good that guy is on guitar.
He’s sweating so much because being under those lights is hot. And the “story” part is part of the song, I’d suggest listening to the album version, as he customized the song for the location here and I assume other live shows, so you can hear what it’s supposed to sound like.
Agreeing with Brian, modern stage lights are different, especially since LED tech came around. Stage lights between the 60's to the mid 90's were crazy hot, so there were a lot of sweaty musicians. Now that doesn't mean it wasn't a booze and drug filled bonanza (it was), just that it was usually the venue making them sweat, not the coke lol
Ikr!
to be fair Thorogood did do a song called Cocaine Blues lol
And Elvin Bishop is throwing heat everywhere he goes...
One bourbon one SCOTCH one beer
A party wasn’t complete without this song back in the day 😛👍🏼
I had the pleasure of seeing him decades ago. It was really kind of strange because unlike most rock bands he didn't have any of those mind blowing songs like Free Bird or Stairway to Heaven, you know what I mean. But he and his band had more fun than I had ever seen a band have. And it carried over to the audience. I also heard several interviews with him on a local radio station and he always came off as very humble.
ROFL! The idea of a band getting ready to do a gig and the guitarist losing his guitar slide before the show. "Hand me that 9/16th mm deep well socket over there!"
I'm a retired bartender.EVERY TIME this song came up on the box I had to scramble to line up all the shot glasses. love the song though. another nightmare song is Jimmy Buffet's margaritaville. cheeseburger in paradise was just as bad,but for the cooks not me.
You put a whole new perspective on things. Interesting.
Was a bartender, too. My nightmare song was "Why don't we get drunk and screw."
Lmao.
3 rounds of 3 Drinks... he Drinking DRANKING
As a business manager, those songs seem like gold mines. Tips too!
I'm getting a contact drunk off my past from listening to this and the memories of playing pool to a full boat of George playing for hours, then repeating. The best music for a pool hall ever.
"I Drink Alone" is a banger.
I remember being in my early 20's, out at some beach shack bar here in Florida and this song came on the jukebox (yes.... the jukebox). And when it got to the part where he sings "One bourbon, one scotch, one beer", the entire BAR sang it... every single time. Good times, man. Good times.
Lmao The "slide" is a common accessory that guitarists use when playing BLUES. Fun times! 😊❤🤘🤘
@ Mr.Video
Slides are also made of long lasting materials such as glass, and of course, metal. The glass ones make for a cooler look and a crisper, finer sound. 😊❤🤘🤘
We luv ya dude...its allright
Saw him number of years ago. Dude put on a 2 1/2 hour show and it was so much fun. I mean it was FUN!! Everyone there left exhausted but with smiles. Some people just know how to entertain.
Johnny Lee Hooker’s is the original and best. You would love him. Another Mississippi Delta Blues legend, he has so many hits. ‘Boom, Boom’, the original and a great version with ZZ Top. ‘I’m Bad Like Jesse James’, ‘Crawlin King Snake’, and ‘Shake It Baby’. He’s baaaad in the best way!
Listen to the original by black blues musician John Lee Hooker. Then you will get the full vibe of the song.
Love it!!
Yes the John Lee Hooker version is classic Blues. This guy had one Bourbon, one Scotch and one speedball
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Both are good but Hooker is the original
Yep...in this song he even collected "my John Lee Hooker albums" before he walked out the house w/ the rent money!!
Yep I'd suggest you listen to the studio version so you know what happens in the story. Props for playing George. You are an original.
Listen to Elvin Bishop FOOLED AROUND AND FELL IN LOVE! !!!!
I think he will like that one.
One of my favorite guitar solo's on that one
I didn’t know squat about Bishop except for the shout out in CDB Souths Gonna Do It Again.... Thank You Tyson 🎸🎸🎸
I recall being blown away that Elvin was not the lead singer of that song, but the fire-hot guitarist. I was very young when the song came out and it was well before MTV. 🙂
@@gilbertdimas9415 Oh man. This is crazy. I have known two Gilbert Dimases in my life. One was the ex of one of my best friends in Guernsey, Wyoming, the other, her son. 😁
He's fun! Elvin Bishop himself is awesome. Some song hits there.
Elvin Bishop is killing it on the guitar. You would loooovvee “ Fooled Around and Fell in Love” with Mickey Thomas singing lead.
Mr. Video! George is a bad ass in R&R! George invented rap that don’t rhyme. He started in early 70s. Very heavily guitar jive boogie style. Kind of tongue in cheek lyrics. Great concerts with a lot of drunk people. He sings a lot about drinking. In 1982 his Bad To The Bone album and singles really defined his rock identity. Just a fun guy that makes fun music. Btw... the sweating is from the lights. Above the concert stage, there is a whole city of lights and there are lighting technicians up there making sure the light are focused on the singer, or a guitar player doing a solo...etc. Now it’s preprogrammed and they have huge fans on stage to keep them cooler. I’ve been in front row, it’s hot up there. We could feel it off stage. Thank you ❤️
lol you’re like a breath of fresh air for me so thank you!!!
He makes me happy too🤗
My 34 year old son has heard this one since he was a teeny baby. He likes it and he also likes George's "I drink alone". Leo, you've given me today's smile 😁
A friend and I ordered that combo one time just to troll our neighborhood bartender - who rightly considered us dorks - but George knows what he's talking about. That three-hit combo does as advertised: makes you feel real loose and forget all about your late rent.
He played at the Colorado State Fair back in 1980 I was there my uncle's took me because my mom actually has a tape recorder of me when I was three or four years old singing bad to the Bone LOL I think it's a great live show
😍
More george:
Who do you love
I drink alone
It wasn't me
Crawling king snake
No particular place to go
Ride on Josephine
I drink alone, a true fav.
I sing I drink alone all of the time. 🤣
@Abbot Creekers my favorite version of that song
if you don't start drinking (I'm gonna leave)
One of the only reactors who I dont care when he pauses... this man should be on prime time TV... funny, got good voice and a real personality... modern day variety show, lol
John Lee Hooker - One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer....
and actually Amos Milburn did it first but the John Lee Hooker is where this version is influenced by.
❤️
One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer. Looks like the man was careful to ensure all 3 of his meals were strong health choices that day. Must've received advanced food group pyramid training.
😂
More like one bourbon, one scotch, and one speedball
😂😂😂🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼😂😂😂
🤣
One of my favorite Lonesome George Thorogood songs. Also I highly recommend "I Drink Alone" by George.
😍
🙌🏼😍🙌🏼
We saw George at the Oregon State Fair back in the 1990's, later we hit a local bar and George and his crew came in, ask the owner if they could play, and played until closing as we all partied all night. George is the real deal.
That 'mechanic' that just left work was using his 'tool' on the guitar...the Craftsman 9/16 mm deep chromed socket. Man that mechanic can play!!
Love this song. I saw him in concert. Hell of a show.
I also have seen him at a out door music fest. He ran around playing every instrument on stage. Great show.
Mr video how's our homie not a millionaire. Guy is a genius entertainer 😎🚬🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Oh my...now watch Elvin Bishop--- Fooled around and fell in Love. He turns over the vocals to a back up singer Mickey. 🐸💚
They sweat because of the hot lights and the temperature inside the clubs they played in. Plus, when you drink a lot of booze, you retain water and sweat more, so there’s that, too 😂
George was my dads favorite musician before he passed. Thank you for reacting to this. You should try "get a haircut and get a real job." His personal favorite 😂
😂😍
My pepaw liked that song. Get a haircut... Lol.. Good memories man.
why do they sweat? banks of 1000 Watt spotlights. onstage can be a very hot environment. (former roadie here)
Yes def
Oh I also like how George got the essence of the blues in that it was a story and he would stop his song to talk about his life as that is what the blues is. Talking about your life and your struggles. Music is universal and don't let anybody tell you different. It is one of the ways we can all relate by listening and trying to understand. Love it.
Was fortunate enough to see him live in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada 20 years ago perform this gem.
Seen him live once. He opened for ZZ Top. He was drunk as fk. Slurring and shit. LOL
😍
Ya, he’s really kind of a dick.
@@lisacaron7224 well, I'd be one too if I wrote a 10 minute song about booze, and it made me rich from kids who wanted to be cool and bad buying the shit out the single!
Did you enjoy the show though?
Maybe we went to the same concert.
So the guitarist played with what's called a slide. It's usually made of brass, or glass, or ceramic, or some other metal. Its allows you to slide up and down to different notes. Popular in blues music, slide guitar is a pretty different technique than normal guitar. If you want to hear what others can do with this style, check out people like Justin Johnson, Robert Johnson, Ry Cooder, Duane Allman, as well as George Thorogood himself. He's a pretty cool slide guitarist.
Brian May also uses a slide & so does Jimmy Page.
@@Terri6868 yea but I wouldn't really consider it something they're known for. Obviously stuff like Tie Your Mother and In my Time Of Dying use them prominently, but it's not really the first thing you think of.
@One Voice Sorry. I was trying to keep it short, yet still throw in some important names.
Bonnie Raitt is a master of the slide
Let's not forget George Harrison or the Queen of slide Bonnie Raitt.
Makes me want to watch the move "Christine"!! LOVE that movie. You should watch that movie!
Damn it. Another intelligent heartfelt reaction channel listening to the music I grew up with. Don't y'all realize I got to get up tomorrow and log into my work from home COVID19 computer and look like I'm working?? How the HELL am I supposed to do that when you keep me up all night re-living my youth with this shit? HUH?
Oh lord, you're gonna love this one.
lol
'He's playing with a 9/16 on his finger....'
~Mr. V
Cheers!
Yeah, my pop went all over my phone screen when he said that 🤣🤣🤣
You ain’t gonna EVER go wrong with George Thorogood. Best live guitar performance I’ve ever seen - bar none.
Your right! He didn't give a shit what people thought.. I met him in Philly the night before that show. So humble. Not a fame seeker just a guy who wanted to play guitar. Still got my backstage pass. Great memory. Thx
Another great story song is “Alice’s restaurant” by Arlo Guthrie😂You can get anything you want at Alice’s Restaurant🎼🤟
It was a case of blind justice🤣😁😂
I've been trying to get everyone I watch to do this....no takers yet ☹️
Especially 8×10 glossy photographs with detailed writing on back of everyone 😁
Beth Shadid I keep trying to. Wish he would do this one. I think he would like this.
I've seen the movie too .
This is such a great song. I always liked ole George. Considering this was the 80's, there's certainly every possibility he was on coke, but the fact that he's sweating doesn't really mean anything. Stages get really, really hot. Between the amps and the people and the lights, you're going to sweat. And that thing that looks like a socket wrench is a guitar slide.
💯
1986 or 1987 my very first concert. Such a good time, entire audience singing along! You weren't even born yet! At least you're learning your variety of rock music now
He’s the shit for sure. My dad loves him. Grew up listening to tons of this.
He’s playing with a tool on his pinky 😂😂😂☠️
It works like a slider on a steel guitar 🎸
@ambidextrousfapper Yes. Both MAC and Snap-On make that size...
It's called a slide. Lol every good blues man owns one.
I grew up with his music glad to see the younger generation taking a liking to it. This was the kind of music we all wanted to play in high school.
I must have heard this song late at night on KMET sometime in 1977. I was lying in bed and this song came on (the studio version) and my mind was simply blown!!! We fuckin' loved that song!!
I like "When I Drink Alone" too.
Fun and clever lyrics
Great as always man and to answer that question about why they sweat so much, it's because the show lights make it really hot and this was filmed in the summer to begin with. The lights are really hot, if it's 85 out it's 110 on stage.
The technology has improved so much since those days with bulbs that run much cooler. Back in the day they were like heat lamps.
I'm glad you enjoyed this song. It does turn into a song. They sweat because of the hot stage lights.
One of his many contributions to the film, "Animal House" (which cast then girlfriend, Karen Allen as Boone's HS sweetheart)is his amazing scene with John Belushi smashing his guitar!
Oh man THANK YOU for hanging with ol' Lonesome George. His band is the Delaware Destroyers -- that's who he referred to. He was alllll over the central east coast in the 80s and my friends and I partied down listening to him. He's all about the live shows -- saw him 3 or 4 times, every one lots of improv and sweaty fun. Kinda can't listen to him now since he's so boorish about women but lots of memories!!! Thanks again!!!
He wearing a socket on his finger🤣
Oh and you can keep the beer and the scotch. Just gimme the bourbon. Neat please. 😁
😂😂😂😍
Do Elvin Bishop I Fooled Around and Fell In Love 👍
I'll tell you right now from being on stages many times myself you can just stand there and you will start sweating when the lights are up light that. Stage lights are very powerful and you will get hot and sweat under them. And spotlights are like being under a god damn heat lamp. I've seen many people collapse from overheating on stage for that reason.
George was a Professional partier and drinker. He could play too.
😍
Bad to the bone or I drink alone
😍😍😍
I think you mean " I drink alone"
I hate auto correct
I got to see George Thorogood and ZZ TOP at the same concert in the early 1990s. I can't wait until we can have concerts again. You look like you have a good time when you go to shows. "By this time, George is wasted." 12 shots and 6 beers will put the heaviest drinkers to sleep. It's a blues song from the fifties George and the Delaware Destroyers put a funky party spin on when they were a bar band playing 5-6 hours a night.
I have seen these guys live 5 times, they put on an excellent show.
This song never failed to come on, when me and my girls were goin out
The studio version is waaaaay better. He's hilarious. You might want to try Move it on Over, Bad to the Bone, I Drink Alone and Who do You Love?
George Thorogood and The Destroyers was the very first cd i ever owned. My dad got it for me for my birthday when i was 10 years old.
Saw him live at a classic bar venue Cat's Cradle in Carrboro, NC. Great show.
You gotta check out some Robin Trower. Very underrated guitarist from the 70's, and he's still jamming. Too Rolling Stoned and Bridge of Sighs are a must... Smoke up! Cheers.
Why is he sweating.... it’s a Fourth of July concert, probably outside at some fairgrounds. Also this is a late in the show maybe even an encore song, so you are seeing him AFTER over an hour of up tempo performance
It's at the capitol theater in Passaic nj with the lights and wearing that leather (?) jacket it'd be pretty hot.
Nope
It's called cooooooocaine
Used to play shows and do theater... The sweating is real and due to all the stage lights + the crowd of people producing a ton of body heat + adrenaline from performing. ❤️🎭
George been blasted for near a month by the end of the song. Each time the chorus comes back more time has passed at the bar.
This band was one of the opening acts for a Rolling Stones concert I atteneded in Los Angeles along with other opening acts of J. Geils and Prince. George rocked the whole stadium and this was one of the songs he did along with Bad To The Bone. It is hot under those lights and who knows how many other songs he has already done that night. Stop being a buzz kill, let him have his drinks.
J.Geils😍
Muddy Waters -" Champagne & Reefer" I think You might like this song
"He's playing with a 9/16" that killed me 😭
Yesssss!!! I LOVE George Thorogood! We used to cruise around getting nigh and listening to his music cranked up loud.
Hell Yeah !! the only way to start the day !! My friend its time for " Bad to the Bone " by Lonesome George Thorogood !! weekend is near friend " BBQ AND BLUES " !! GEORGE is always near than !!
the other guitarist reminded me of :
fool around and fell in love elvin bishop
One of the best concerts ever! I almost got kicked out for trying to touch George's boot while he was on stage. I had definitely had a little too much scotch, bourbon & beer 🤩Love George! He's a great storyteller & one helluva musician. You definitely need to check out lots of his music even if you don't do a reaction video 😁
OMG - this is your best reaction yet! I smiled all the way through, watching you! Great one! Thanks!
To get a true Blues sound you need a classically designed “hollow body” or “semi-acoustic “ electric guitar and those things are big and heavy. Blues played on a modern solid body electric guitar just isn’t pitched right.....
Let me guess.. your white.
I saw him many many years ago, it was a great show.. although I'm sure he had more than one bourbon, one scotch and one beer...... I'm pretty sure he was wasted..... lol
Love George. Proof that three chords and a guitar can make a career. BTW, he was a minor league baseball player. He said, "If I could hit or run or catch that's what I'd be doing today". Man knows his limitations.
Now do I Drink Alone!! By George..so happy you did this!!!!
Listen to his song Bad To The Bone next 👌, also Elvin Bishop is a legend
Yes. From Tulsa. I remember those early days.........
My cousin can sing this song and sounds just like him with radio version .
This guy cracks me up! Every one of his videos puts me in a good mood ...
george thorogood sure can tell a story in a song.
