I was in Junior High when we hosted German exchange student. First day in the States, Ralf went out and bought the newly released "Budokan" album. That's all he play ... over and over. And I LIKED IT! Thank You.
I've heard comments from people that listen to this now and then and say things like "Rick, the guy with the funny hat... Is a NUT JOB..." NO, he's the brains of the band... When I met him back in 1978 at a private get together, i saw the 10,000 guitars he collected... (ok maybe a loose connection, but not a nut job) Or, did I meet him at a guitar store.... or, was that a cheap trick, i met?
Yup, Here I go again. I'm glad that all those Colon Cowboys got offended by my comment: That the colorful guitarist looks like a Fucking HOMO. Don't trip, you Pickle Kissers.
a little long on the solo drums but damnnnnnnnnnnnnn what a hell of a rendition of an awesome song!!!!!!!! Hell yeah!!!!!!!!!!! but wish they would have dragged the song out with the vocals rather than the musicals-----almost looose -practically looooooose all interest until the bloody vocals get you ---off the wall!!!!!!!!!!!!! FNA love this !!!
On December 24,2006 at 8 o'clock in the morning, a young 14 year old boy by the name of Scott Jackson was found dead.Doctors couldn't come up with the cause of his death.His mother checked his emails to see if she could figure out what happened.Turns out he was still signed into myspace.She found he had gone to sleep after he read and didn't repost a chain letter.if you don't repost this to 6 videos a girl with no face will kill you tonight. sorry don't wanna die
True story....it's 1978'ish...3 am'ish...I;ve got my big fat head phones on.....I'm playin' rock star...air guitar .....drummer....butt naked.....and I open my eyes to see my mom walk OUT of the room.....we never spoke of this and I miss her very much....RIP mom xox
little subtleties: Rick Nielson pays homage to the Beatles during his solo; listen for a riff from "Please Please Me"..love Bun E.'s drumming intro to this.
I saw many rock concerts in lates 80s and 90s. Cheap trick is on my top 3 list of most ass kicking bands in live concerts. They rock the balls out of your pants! The other two were guns and roses and the great pink floyd. of course pf rocks you in a trippy way!
One of the best big arena show bands.

This is the way to cover a song. Put your own unique stamp on it and do it well. I hope Fats Domino liked it and got some nice royalties too.

I saw them for free when i was in marine corps boot camp in san diego.
They walked us across the street to the Navy base and sat us down and said "no clapping or cheering of any kind" LOL
they kicked ass for a bunch of navy and marine recruits, i wanted to jump up and down and flick the lighter. No dice.
watching a rock concert completely still without clapping is an un-natural thing. LOL
