On Saturday, April 29, 2023, we welcome George Thorogood and the Destroyers with special guest and former Albert King Award Winner for Best Guitarist Nick Schnebelen tothe Penticton Trade and Convention Centre (PTCC) in Penticton on Saturday, April 29, 2023! Presented by K96.3 Kelowna’s Classic Rock.

After 45 years of rock – and no signs of stopping – can Thorogood point to what continues to make it all matter? “My highlight is every night when I walk on that stage and play our hits for those happy people,” he says. “At the end of the show, the audience is smiling, I don’t see any police and everyone got their money’s worth.”

More importantly, is it still good to be bad? George Thorogood instantly flashes that huge grin. “You bet it is,” he says. ”We’ll always be the baddest band in the land. Expect our best on this tour, because that’s what you’re gonna get.”

Tickets are still available for as low as $52.50 and can be purchased in person at the Valley First Box Office (at the SOEC) or online at www.valleyfirsttix.com .
