WOW

An excellent rendition of this. I am dying to see a Rick Nielsen instructional video. He's like an encyclopedia of rock licks--and his wacked-out hyperactive style is awesome. Seeing Rick in a chair. This is a cool vid of a great tune.

Tremendous. Fuck you, Jann Wenner and you rag, Rolling Stone. Die of cancery you worthless fuck YOU and YOU ALONE have kept Cheap Trick from the HOP. I hope your death is slow, painful, and publicly humiliating, you fucking maggot.

Marshall Mathers sounded just a bit too Eminem-ish, lol. However the above is just copied all over YT, so maybe that was not his real name either. I do believe the friend/photographer part is correct though.

"The title came from a photographer the band knew in it's early days. The gentleman's name was Marshall Mintz and they affectionately called him "Candy", and he commited suicide in the mid 70's."
Dear "mrspence2007" You obviously are either too young to know or you don't sing. Zander is still singing the Cheap Trick songs in their original key..What this means in this case is the man is singing a song as he recorded it more than 30 years ago!!.... Check out 99% of all singers who still tour many years later... they pretty much lower the songs so they can hit the high notes... Robin still hits em!!!
