I should win because he's bad to the bone! and I have never seen him live.

Oh god, I love George Thorogood! I once listened to One Bourbon, One Scotch, and One Beer on loop in my car for like four hours straight! I know it's his most popular song, and I know he has a lot of other good ones too (Who do you love??? eh? eh?) but I was and AM obsessed with his music! Free tickets?! Sounds too amazing to be true...

how about because I drink alone and should probably drink with those other 199 people. Every once in a while a meet up with my buddy johhny walker and his brothers blackie and red. But generally I drink alone. With no body else, and except for this concert. Prefer to by myself...

I wanna go 'cuz I'm as in love with the Grammy Museum (and DTLA in general) as I am with the Georgester! I'd do all the right things -- walk to the event after having dinner at a local restaurant, and stop off for a nightcap on the walk home! I might even air-guitar the opening riff of "Bad to the Bone" as I went.

I've been a huge fan since I was a kid. My mom even meet George at LAX when she worked for United & got me his autograph. That was over 20 years ago & I still have it, framed on my wall. It reads "To David George Thorgood Be nice to your mom she's the only one you'll ever have!"

I should win because when my mother was pregnant with me, she would put "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" on and I would kick in time with it. I can honestly say I've been a fan since I was in the womb!
