Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick visits Les Paul's House of Sound 1st Annual Guitar Show at Discovery World in Milwaukee, WI. Sponsored by Cream CIty Music and Discovery World.
When the hell was this!?!? Man I woulda loved to have been there! I live in Milwaukee & I didn't hear a thing about it!!!
I have also met Rick. My good friend was Hammer Hog the mascot for the Rockford Ice Hogs hockey team which Rick attends frequently ; my friend introduced us & yeah he is a really nice guy! Total gentleman! Also met him at his pizza joint in Chicago. By the way, one of the best pizzas I have ever had! Seriously!!!
I met Rick at a guitar shop in St' Paul on a Saturday, while out looking around, I'd say 1979, we were both just lookin at guitar stuff, then I realized who he was! And honestly, he was the nicest dude, down to earth, just unlike my jammin' friends!
We talked for an hour about guitar makes and sounds! He was THEE most friendly famous guitar guy I'd ever met! Ya know what I mean? Lotsa nobodys have head trips, he was a somebody, and it was like lookin' at guitars and sampling
I love that quote! Rick just played it. The price went up! LOL! Saw them on the Heaven Tonight tour. Rick did some amazing guitar throwing acrobatics! He doesn't seem to do much of that anymore.
