George Thorogood & the Destroyers
To have a backing band hailed as the anarchic “Destroyers,” George Thorogood must be some sort of rebellious punk icon, socking it to the man and the mainstream at any random, unhinged moment. But in reality, Thorogood’s a radio-friendly kind of guy whose reworking of blues classics, from John Lee Hooker to Bo Diddley, has made him a classic rock station staple. With Damon Fowler. $25-$75, 7pm, Aztec Theatre, 104 N. St. Mary’s St., (210) 812-4355
