		Thorogood played as an opener for Hound Dog Taylor and the Houserockers early in his career and was greatly influenced by them.
		The venues were unfamiliar to Thorogood as normally he shunned large areas for smaller clubs, even going to extent of playing under false names to prevent the smaller venues being overcrowded.
		Because George's philosophy is to provide his legions of fans with the music they have come to crave for as long as they're enjoying themselves, he's ebulliently optimistic about his immediate and long-term future.

	DVD.net : George Thorogood & the Destroyers - Live in '99 - DVD Review
		Thorogood is an all American boy, a former semi-professional baseball player, and a purveyor of the blues.
		Thorogood's brand of blues could best be described as boogie blues, or rock-blues, with an emphasis on rocking tunes with plenty of slide guitar, saxophone and good-time lyrics about girls, cars, sex, and beer.
		George never strays far from the formula that brought him his success, and therefore he has a pretty steady and loyal fanbase.
