    My husband passed in Dec. 2021 I was home alone and my daughter called me and asked me what I was doing. I told her I was having a drink and she said without me and alone so I had to play George I drink alone and it led to this. My husband loved him so much.❤

    I was at this concert in the ninth row. It was awesome! My ears rang for weeks afterwards. We stuck around the stage door when the show was over and not only got a glad-hand from George but hung out with John Lee Hooker and Willie Dixon for a while just sitting in chairs on the sidewalk while they regaled us with tales from the Old Days on a warm summer night. Needless to say, it is still one of the best moments of my life. And we never even asked for an autograph.....

    I saw him in Calgary in the 80s. He did 4 Encores and finally they shut off the power in the Max Bell Arena. George kept playing n the dark as everyone went silent so we could hear him. The best Concert I was ever at in the worst Venue in the world.

      There are new groups out there, but it's not popular in the mainstream so you have to seek it out unfortunately. With that said, rock and blues music will never die, just go underground like it is now, until it gets popular again. Gen Z are bringing back grunge music in the underground now too. Happy search guys, and keep dancing!

    I saw George at SUNY Geneseo back about this time in the early 80s, I am not sure of the exact date... but this motoring basic rock and roll was about as much fking fun as we can handle back then - without being obnoxious to others just freaking having good fun enjoying our youth. NO reserves and no crap and no fking wars we were the kids of the late seventies that just loved having fun without any preconceived thoughts of the bloody fking status quo MATRIX affecting us. It was the true eye of the storm.

      @@sandienochs6132 Millennials will say the same about music of their era. Every generation sees the music of their youth as the best. I was born in 1967. I like music of the 60s, 70s and 80s mostly, plus some 90s. The 60s was a time of a cultural revolution where pop music exploded and the music of 1960 was very different to the music of 1969 which is an objective viewpoint, as is that popular music such as rock and roll was born in 1955. Contemporary music continued to evolve ever since its inception and every new genre creates a new sub-genre. So, to me and most people of my age, the music of the late 70s to early 80s was the best era and there were many great artistes from that period who have written songs that will last forever. I can't see that happening in the last 20 years because attitude and image have taken over actual musical integrity.
