That would be Thin Lizzy.....not Cheap Trick. I've been a CT fan most of my life. I couldn't tell you how many times I've seen them. Even in their heyday, they still played local Illinois venues like a bar band. Great bunch of guys that never lost a sense of humor in their music.

Yep. They sold out many huge arenas in their prime. I doubt there were more than a few hundred people at this show. It was at a small water park. There was no event specific advertising at all. I happened to hear a spot listing the summer concert series. They mentioned them as if they were another garage band. That was the only ad I saw for them and that was about a month ago.

I've seen them more times than I can count with Aerosmith. Both bands are friends. I'm not a fan of Cheap Trick, but Rick Nielsen is entertaining.

I've always had great seats to their shows, but once in Tallahassee we had 4th row. Robin Zander was singing on the cat walk right next to me.

He kept looking down at me trying to liven me up, but I wasn't having any of it . . . LoL

Zander's daughter is smoking hot, though . . .
