Now \u201cone of the most iconic bands in rock &#038; roll history\u201d (Rapid City Journal) celebrates it all with their Good To Be Bad Tour: 45 Years Of Rock coming to Foellinger Theatre in Fort Wayne on Friday, August 20. Tickets are available to the general public this Friday, June 25 at 10am at Ticketmaster.com. Presales start Wednesday, June 23 at 10am with code SUMMER. Presented by Exceptional Artists, Mammoth Live and 96.3 XKE. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re content, you may as well be dead.\u201d George laughs with his familiar rasp. \u201cI think everyone has thoughts about retiring, but the phone keeps ringing. You want me and The Destroyers to come to your town, set up our gear, wear some badass clothes and play \u2018Who Do You Love?\u2019 End of conversation. Let\u2019s rock!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s on tour that George &#038; band flip the switch nightly, delivering what The Toledo Blade calls a \u201cgut-bustin\u2019, guitar-wailin\u2019, face-meltin\u2019, take-no-prisoners, good old-fashioned lunch bucket rock-and-roll show\u201d. The Sacramento Bee says, \u201cThe Destroyers remain as they have been for years \u2013 Jeff Simon on percussion, Bill Blough on bass, Jim Suhler on guitar, and Buddy Leach on saxophone. They are without doubt one of the best touring bands in blues-rock history.\u201d Or as Rolling Stone once raved, \u201cGeorge Thorogood &#038; The Destroyers play rock &#038; roll hot enough to melt the polar icecaps and flood the world\u2019s major population centers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But after 45 years of rock \u2013 and no signs of stopping \u2013 is it still good to be bad? George Thorogood instantly flashes that huge grin. \u201cYou bet it is,\u201d he says. \u201dWe\u2019ll always be the baddest band in the land. Expect our best on this tour, because that\u2019s what you\u2019re gonna get.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>More information about this year\u2019s concerts at Foellinger Outdoor Theatre can be found at FoellingerTheatre.org.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/\">Return to the AroundFortWayne home page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/fwparks\/10092.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Foellinger Theatre at Franke Park.
