SUMMARY:George Thorogood & The Destroyers with Artimus Pyle Band
DESCRIPTION:\nThe Baddest Show On Earth\n\n\n\nIn a five-decade career fueled by 8,000+ live shows, more than 15 million albums sold, and a global reputation as “the band that plays hot enough to melt the polar icecaps” (Rolling Stone) and “one of the 5 best acts left out of The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame” (WNBF Binghamton), where can “one of the most iconic bands in rock history” (Rapid City Journal) possibly go from here?\n\n\n\n“That’s all pretty good for the first 50 years,” George Thorogood says with a laugh. “But we keep working harder, digging deeper and playing stronger. Now it’s time to go back out there and do some serious rockin’.” For George Thorogood & The Destroyers, serious rockin’ will always be what they do best. And for 2025, The Baddest Show On Earth Tour will bring theguitar-slinging, amp-blasting, roof-shaking rock party like never before.\n\n\n\nGeorge and longtime Destroyers Jeff Simon (drums), Bill Blough (bass), Jim Suhler (guitar) and Buddy Leach (saxophone) are now taking all the drum-bashing, bass-pounding, sax-wailing, monster guitar energy of the past five decades and pouring it into The Baddest Show On Earth Tour, with “the boogie-blues Sinatra” (Classic Rock History) as its relentless ringmaster. “If the circus makes everyone feel like a kid again, this tour will make you feel like a teenager,” George says with a grin. “I consider us to be a musical high-wire act that works without a net, and we’ll be bringing all the danger, thrills, and fun that our audiences can handle. Because that’s what great rock & roll is all about.”\n\n\n\nTHE ARTIMUS PYLE BAND – HONORING RONNIE VAN ZANT’S LYNYRD SKYNYRD\n\n\n\nAPB features Artimus Pyle, the last surviving member and drummer of the classic Lynyrd Skynyrd lineup & 2006 Rock & Roll HOF inductee with Lynyrd Skynyrd.  Come see the new APB lineup that includes Bo Bice (the celebrated southern rock singer and American Idol finalist), Barry Lee Harwood (Rossington Collins Band), Shannon Wickline (Charlie Daniels Band), Jerry Lyda & Scott Raines\n\n\n\nAPB’s new album, Anthems includes classic Lynyrd Skynyrd songs featuring special guest singers. Included are Sweet Home Alabama, (feat Ronnie Dunn from Brooks & Dunn) & Simple Man (feat Sammy Hagar), Free Bird (feat Dolly Parton) and many more.\n\n\n\nAPB is featured on Dolly Parton’s 2023 album, Rockstar. \n\n\n\nThe soundtrack from 2020 film, Street Survivors: The True Story Of The Lynyrd Skynyrd Plane Crash (Cleopatra Entertainment) features music from APB and various artists.\n
