Greatest line ever!!! “I like the crowd in front of me. Not around me “. Brilliant

[@demonicsweaters]

What a great interview, George is such a well-spoken guy, knows a lot about music, and damn that slide playing is so iconic.

[@1969MARKETING]

how crazy is it that Sammy is almost 3 years older than George? Sammy never grew up and it's a testament to how he looks and feels now. your mind is super powerful.

[@CIN-bn9zc]

Ya, he looks like he is in his 80's with his alcoholic red face both of them.

[@paulcoenen7918]

Wow I didn't know that 😳.

[@Eddy63]

There is no price on '' Loyalty '' Great statement George ... Thx Sammy ...

[@stevestreet2825]

George played 3 hr straight in Seattle Coliseum 83,84. Fantastic!

[@torarauland7145]

George Thorogood great live man he`s got it. I have seen them live Notodden Blues festival. They Blow the hole thing sky high This is the real deal

[@grinkashman7884]

I played baseball once with George when I was 14 (1980). .Super cool dude! Saw him multiple times including with the Stones, 50/50 tour.

[@lenj9750]

I also played baseball with George, he had a team called the Delaware Destroyers in a semi pro league in Delaware which is where I am from.

[@grinkashman7884]

@@lenj9750 my sister went to the u of d. Fun times going to visit her.

[@lenj9750]

My daughter graduated from the U of D in 2004

[@scottwilson6712]

Saw George in a club called Headliners in Madison Wisconsin back in the early 80s. What Lonesome George brought to the table was total attitude! My favorite song was always, it wasn't me, Dude was always the Baddest Dog in the house.

[@brettl2162]

2 heavy hitters jamming together. This is priceless entertainment.

[@jayhutchinson1962]

I was at the Rolling Stones show two nights in a row in LA in 1981 when George Thorogood, Prince, and Jay Giles band Played with them it was awesome Prince was first to play he was booed off stage both days I couldn't believe it I thought he was great, next was George in his prime excellent performance then Jay Giles both of them kicked ass but the Stones were fantastic. I still have an unused ticket for the second day I was 21 years old great memories.

[@EEF1108]

I first saw George Thorogood more than 40 years ago at the Walnut Street Theatre in Philadelphia. Then saw him open for the Stones in their tour opener at JFK Stadium in 1981. I've seen him a bunch of times since, and he almost puts on an entertaining show. by contrast, I was slow to come around on Sammy Hagar, but watching his interviews and his occasional work with his neighbor Bob Weir, I've become a fan the last 5-10 years.

[@energyasylum997]

Sammy is great host!! The love, respect and enthusiasm he has for his guests is genuine and reaches through!! Great show!! Looking forward to all upcoming episodes! Bravo Sammy BRAVO!!!

[@larrymackerethjr.3812]

Saw George and the Delaware Destroyers about 1994 at Hagerstown Maryland Fairgrounds. Spectacular Show. Loved it

[@luish777]

George is one straight up wise dude he knows where his compass points.Thanx Sammy👍

[@JoeR203]

Just the day before this video was uploaded, out of the blue, I just started thinking about George's song Move It On Over.

[@acdcountryboy2124]

Awesome song!

[@gsmeeuwsen]

LOVE these videos! Thank you, Sammy!!!

[@jacksonruth6811]

Love me some Thorogood. Grew up on it, lived it and love to here it today. Alexis, play me some Thorogood!

[@runnerandgunner7954]

Sammy! I LOVE your R & R Road trip series. I saw George at Mississippi Nights in St. Louis, MO in the late '80s/early '90s. He was awesome! He came out rockin' at 100 miles per hour. After half an hour of rocking, he finally took a breath to say "Enough of the warmup, let's start the show!" During "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" that night, he said "...gimme a triple shot of that ST. LOUIE JUICE!!!" We all, of course, screamed like banshees. A long time ago, but such an awesome show. I remember it like yesterday. Great job, Sammy! Great job, George!

[@paulcoenen7918]

A show nobody can forget. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@veegee3291]

George Thorogood: One of the best hidden gem rockers of all time. Each song on his albums ROCK. ♥️ that another favorite, Sammy Hagar, paired up w/ him for this interview.

[@Thisoldcasita]

I saw you in 1981 in LA with the Stones. You rocked it brother! Thanx!

[@jayhutchinson1962]

I was there also both days, Prince was booed off stage both days how's that when you look back now.

[@richardwalton3521]

Yup Prince got booked off the stage.

[@troyallen5806]

Couple of legit badasses.

[@Ppuffdiddleydangdoof]

I thought I couldn't like George any more than I already do, then I find out that he pays his guys well. He is THE star on that stage, but shares with his band. That's almost a revolutionary act in today's greed obsessed US.

[@dallasmobley9359]

The sound of George thorogood's guitar has been ingrained so deeply into my psyche that I recognize it the instant his thumb pick hits those strings. Is it his gear setup? Is it that choice of guitar? The pickups on that guitar? A mixture of all three of those things? He created a signature guitar sound that I've never heard anybody else make and to this day when you hear him play that guitar you know instantly who's doing it

[@paulcoenen7918]

I don't know either but I know exactly what you mean. So unique and incredible. I would love to sometime s just cut everything out except his guitar. I don't think many people can hear what we hear. Maybe we have the ability to separate all the sounds coming at us. I try to tell folks "just listen to the guitar "

[@colt10mmsecurity68]

One bourbon, one scotch and one beer …got me through rehab in 1988.

[@luciecharvet6097]

Hugs from France love you George !

[@anamerican1054]

Just awesome! Rock on!

[@TheBlueskyson]

George seems a humble sort of guy with a realistic grip on his skill level and reality. ty 4 interview.

[@yumpinyimbo6612]

50 in 50 Tour. The best. !!

[@TheRimeOfTheAncientMariner]

Awesome that he seems like such a good dude. I got to see him back in the mid to late 90s and he was fantastic

[@jydymyyyr9630]

There comes a time when all the cosmic tumblers have clicked into place - and the universe opens itself up for a few seconds to show you what's possible - Ray Kinsella in "Field of Dreams". That's what happened when GT was matched up with the Gibson 125, and what happens when he performs and we have the opportunity to listen to this master.

[@johnnyjohns5570]

that jacket looks like the one I made for george in new york city bout 35 or so years ago, I did a repair on his real python jacket and he liked my work so I made a new one out of a printed python in vinyl

[@paulcoenen7918]

Maybe it was. It sure is beautiful,

[@jeffprokes8990]

Awesome !! Already bought my tickets to this outstanding summer double bill !! 🤘🤘

[@xkguy]

Wow, did not know George was such a great interviewee.

[@lucasjames572]

His name definitely needs to be mentioned with the Clapton‘s, the Jeff Beck’s, Jimmy Page, Eddie Van Halen…, he uses all of his fingers, and sounds better than with a pick. As a matter of fact, you couldn’t do what he does with a pick. Greatness personified.

[@tonygreif21]

1982,Colisium,great show

[@ToxicBigRig]

Well that's just about the coolest thing I've seen in a long time.

[@bixby9797]

So interesting to see how each approach the song at the end. Way different styles but each great

[@ExploringCabinsandMines]

I would like to know how rock singers feel singing the same song over and over for 40 years ? love it or hate it.

[@s4lroachclip]

Depends on if they love the song. Mainly though if you could sing the same songs for 40 years and make the money they made doing it. You wouldn't complain. Some have said that some hits are songs they hate doing but only because they feel like they HAVE to do them, whether they want to or not. Other than that if they don't love what they do they would stop. OK I feel like i have spoken to enough "stars" to have given this answer with 100% accuracy. I am going to give a quote from Troy Luccketta whether or not he wants me to. He once told me, "there ain't no stars here but the ones in the sky, and im standing on the same ground you are." Sammy should do a show with Troy, and/or Tesla.

[@kyleforeman4543]

Damm sweet, tks for sharing , don't get much better than this

[@terrypoplin5940]

Sammy you still sound amazing..you to George🤗🤗

[@randykirk62]

Waiting for Sammy to do THIS OR THAT😜

[@43dukedog]

[@user-kv9mh9jw3t]

Thank you

[@vincegedeon6583]

I've seen this online already weeks ago

[@stevestreet2825]

Mr. Geffen can summon anyone in The World.

[@tw8454]

anyone else feel this interview isnt as intimate as it coulda been like other episodes lol they just havent been around eachother much and it came out. still good tho!

[@BradRocker]

So Love it !!

[@robertklimczak2207]

Man how cool was that

[@jerrykurpiewski5202]

Off The Ricktorr. Scale

[@donna1960]

Ur Both Great!!🎶🎵💞

[@redsammy7789]

I went to a lot of concerts back in the 70's and 80's but I kick myself for not making it to see George and the destroyers

[@tracezachdaniels4264]

SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide} AND sooo cool...LOVE YOU BROTHERS..!!

[@LIE11Bldg7]

Oh Hell Ya...

[@Luke43168]

I like George but what he says, and Sam agrees with, near the end about the Elvis, Chuck Berry etc having no templates to work from is utter nonsense. It's extraordinary after all this time that generation is still getting away with saying this stuff. Elvis, Berry, all the "original rocknrollers'" heroes are all very well documented and they were predominately all their preceding and contemporary bluesmen and women - and also some country people. People like T Bone Walker, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker and countless other R andB and blues artists who gave birth to a more commercialized and pop form of rocknroll.

[@fishingfreak9734]

Keep bringing it Sammy !! I guess I never noticed that George played Epiphone instead of Gibson, I have some research to do now !!!

[@jerrylagesse9046]

God bless Marty McFly eh brothers !

[@travisschmidt3383]

Bad 2 the bone 🫡

[@paulkruger491]

Fun.

[@yolandabrooksqueenofsevens]

Yassss

[@stevep2430]

Sorry but Elvis did have his influences and they were the black blues and gospel people that he had contact with when he was a child.

[@Jack-bs7cy]

George where is your Ooby Dooby lighter from the stones?

[@unedited2716]

ASS KICKING NAME Taking HIT LOVE IT YOU 2 JAMMING 🙌

[@Winterstick549]

George also played minor league baseball for the, guess who??? The Delaware Destroyers whom he named his band after.

[@s4lroachclip]

An 8ball would be better than owing the club for your drinks after the show sammy...give me a call!

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

Is that the song about domestic strife? Shouldn't George be worried that he is going to be typecast as an imbiber?

[@cowboy0212]

Are they sober?

[@jamesviice4217]

Ike did not use drugs?

[@capt.ricksparrow255]

This music is for MEN an endangered species.

[@hillbillysouth312]

O

[@the.communist]

Sammy seems to be obssessed with people "hanging out"

[@clange03]

Sorry sammy, you don’t have the voice or style for it. Please sit down, let lonesome take the helm.

[@leslieperry3001]

Stilted performance. Uninspired I’m afraid.

[@michaeldutill9921]

Bury George he’s done , change the station !
