Tickets for the "Good To Be Bad Tour: 45 Years Of Rock" shows go on sale on May 27, 12 pm (local time) via the Live Nation website.
George Thorogood and his long-time legendary band, consisting of Jeff Simon, Bill Blough, Jim Suhler and Buddy Leach, have sold more than 15 million albums since 1976, built a catalogue of classic hits, played more than 8000 ferocious live shows, and been a household name for more than two generations.
"Since I was 17, all I wanted to do was see how far I could go with my guitar, putting my own spin on music I loved," Thorogood said. "Expect our best on this tour because that's what you're gonna get."
To coincide with the tour, Universal Music will release the Australasian-Exclusive souvenir edition of The Original George Thorogood, a collection of the best songs from George Thorogood & The Destroyers.

Through the power of music, we are creating a new kind of conversation that supports our choices and the decisions that we make."
