Bands go all out when they play in LA. Don't get me wrong I love Cheap Trick but there's a lot of backing tracks and background players, not just the orchestra. You probly already gathered that.. but I agree with you this is a great sound and an awesome performance notwithstanding. Top notch band.
@@mattstickle2725L.A Hollywood Bowl or Greek like my NYC The Garden or Citifield Yankee Stadiums even Morrissey turns it up n he's a prick to all cities lol but GD CT to me is the 2nd best Pop band ever after the Beatles. If I wanna hold your hand is the original greatest pop song not the 1st rock n Roll or hard rock or alternative etc just pure Pop song. Like The formula. Under 3 n half or so minutes mostly hook chorus lighter on the verses n get to the hook fast n mid to fast tempo ear candy for life , the I want u to want me is the 2nd best pure Pop power pop song and best American Pop song n no put down I know they can do pure Rock n hard n r n r etc but they have 3 of the goat of pure Pop power pop future pop punk songs with I want u to want me dream police n Surrender
Amazing... after all these years, it still comes across as powerful and credible as it did in the late 70's. I just can't think of another band that can do this. Robin's voice is still strong, and they haven't lost it. I saw them in concert many times during the 70's and 80's. This makes me proud to be a Cheap Trick fan.
I was at that show, happened to be in Burbank on business for Cessna Aircraft Company, working on their behalf to improve and tune the whell-brake metering valve lap assemblies at Eaton Hydraulics-Sterer Division. When we wrapped up work on the M750 BMV late that afternoon I drove up to to Griffith Park so I could look around the famous Griffith Observatory, thats when I proverbially stumbled on the legendary Greek Theater complete with a marquee showing Cheap Trick - Live that evening, . I was 47 years old that year, time forges on and I'm 55 years old now thankful I had enough smarts and cash to purchase a ticket, as it's such a wonderful memory of beautiful southern California on a fall evening, watching and listening to Cheap Trick rock that venue and bring everyone to their feet for a spectacular finale. A+
Robin Zander hasn't lost a note... man, he still belts it out IN KEY! I saw Cheap Trick with .38 Special back in 1984 and that was one fantastic concert. Rick was his usual nutty self and who'd have it any other way? Great fun, great music.
🔥🖤🔥 I wish I could rock with y’all again next week at Hard Rock Tampa, but I can’t due to issues, but I had a blast when I saw y’all in April 2024 in Tampa with my ❤️! Y’all still sound and look amazing!! 🔥🖤❤️🖤🔥
I come back to this video year after year.. the happy face on the violinist and how much she's getting into it always gets me. best song in the world from the best band in the world.
Absolutely my favorite song by them (that’s why we are all here watching isn’t it?!). This is one of the best live versions of any song ever and now just months shy of their 50th anniversary. Time to replay it, again.
@@karengarrison3666 Heck it's been 2 years and I still haven't moved. I love the Asian violinist, she's having the time of her life. "The Hell with classical, this is too much fun"
@@RSTI191 I love her too! I love when a trained, classical violinist isn't afraid to show her delight in not only playing the song, but also hearing it too. The joy on her face and in her movements show how much she's into CT and Dream Police! A moment-in-time captured lovingly forever! ❤
@@karengarrison3666 This is a perfect tune. No weakness anywhere. Structure, dynamics, theme, chorus, Everything. It doesn't get too much better than this.. If George Martin was the 5th Beatle, Rick Nielsen was the 6th..
I agree they TOTALLY need to do a Bluray of the Dream Police shows. I am a bit frugal on ticket prices but after CT got rained out at our fair in 2010 i went to Milwaukee for my bday & saw the show. TOTALLY a mindblowing show-playing in an area about the size of my house with great acoustics. Both of Rick's boys play--the drummer is a great Bun E sub & the guitarists sings amazingly like Robin. If you have a chance to see the show, you won't be disappointed. A new set every night.
Saw them on the beach, in Miami, back in (87?) , and then again, in Rockford, IL. on the Waterfront, (95/96?).. The Doobie Brothers, were the opening act...Crazy GOOD!!!!

I know that your comment is a year old, but I just saw Cheap Trick for the first time at Coney Island on July 12th this year. I am still knocked out by these guys. I actually wrote on Facebook that the concert was the best concert I have ever seen by anyone and I meant it. I have been a U2 fan forever and I cannot remember how many great concerts I have seen by them. And Cheap Trick blew me away completely. And I mean it.
+Alex Fullick it was Awesome Alex... I drove down from San Francisco for it... would love to do it all over again... gota see Cheap Trick as a headliner, they kick some out great shows... as an opener they are ok but only play the same ol' hits...you wanna see a complete show from top to bottom!
I just saw Cheap Trick for the first time at Coney Island Brooklyn on July 12th. They blew me away! I still keep going over that concert in my head! I cannot get enough video of them!!
Yup, I first saw them in 1977 when they opened for KISS in San Francisco at the Cow Palace. Was a fantastic show. Have seen them live at least 25 times live since that first concert. These guys always put on a great show. Glad they finally made it into the RRHOF!!!!!!!
I saw them in the early 2000s in Austin . Don't remember the exact date , but I had my first kiss in 1979 with my husband ( then my boyfriend) to one of their songs when it was new . The band is still as hot as ever !
I was there, about 15 rows back, aisle seat on Tom's side of the stage. It was AMAZING! But of course, they ALWAYS are! Rick sang the first verse of "World's Greatest Lover;" said something about a bet. They filmed the entire concert. Cameras everywhere, getting every angle; said they were going to release a video of the entire show, but as far as I know, never did. Glad to see they made good use of some of the footage! Really a great show, at a great venue. There are no bad seats at the Greek. I saw an amazing performance of the Stone Temple Pilots (the tour with the giant lava lamps onstage) there too, a few years before this during Scott Weiland's spikey red hair/smudged eyeliner phase. Just a remarkable sound system at this place. Outdoor amphitheater in Griffith Park up in the Hollywood Hills.
Not a single tune down... these boys can still rock!
That's my opinion . Ain't no room for the dream police in that audience . Everybody's pumped .
Holy Crap!!! That might be one of the best performances I have ever seen or heard. Unreal!!!! No wonder why these guys are in the Rock & Roll HOF.

i was at that concert! It was one of the best shows I have ever seen. 2.5 hours straight no warm up act no encore they just came out and hit it.
Newly discovered them have you?

@@nickymartinez-qj6nn You preaching to the choir my friend. Been a big fan probably as long as you have, maybe longer. Doesn't matter.
The orchestra looks like their having so much fun.
Don't they just...a real blast.
How come Asian violinist's are all just slammin' hot?

That 12 string bass of Tom Petersson is so badass...Ridiculously cool😎
Wow. Having that orchestra section really kicked it up a notch.
Robin Zander hasn't lost a note... man, he still belts it out IN KEY! I saw Cheap Trick with .38 Special back in 1984 and that was one fantastic concert. Rick was his usual nutty self and who'd have it any other way? Great fun, great music.
Wow, just stumbled upon this. One of my favorite bands. They're pushing 70 and can blow the shit outta most bands 1/3 their age.
Wow, just wow!
He is always in tune, Robin amazes me!
Day-um! That sounded better than the album version!!!!
Saw them last night at Milwaukee's Summerfest ( 7-8-2018) They blew the roof off the place!! They have not lost a step , the Show kicked ass!!
This was probably the best show I've ever seen. It was absolutely perfect!!
One of the most beautiful songs ever!!!
Such a fun band to see live!
never gets old still 15 yrs old standing in my head rock on Cheap Trick
Who doesn’t luv Cheap Trick?! 😎👍👏

Defines great music if it can be done with an
Amazing
Great band, saw them in Detroit 1979. Today I picked up tickets to see them in Spokane Wa in September scored front row seats.
Flipping fantastic! I’ve seen them so many times…BUT THIS! 😊😮😊 and, in 2011….
Love CHEAP TRICK!
Why is this not released on dvd awesome cheap trick kick ass
Bring back the 80’s i was 13 years old when this came out.
I saw them in Orlando July 2024. It was awesome. Journey followed them then Def Leppard. My wife and I went back to the the eighties for five hours.
I was at this show...Played the entire DP album front to back. incredible!
Soooo cool.
Brilliant Band.
I could watch this all day..
I have been watching Cheap Trick all day and night, can't get enough! ❤

Did not disappoint at all
Can’t believe how good they still sound. Bravo. This rocks
Wow, that brought tears to my eye with all the memories of this song. Well done, boys!!
EPiC POLiCE!
Saw them twice in a small place in Passaic N.Y. Called the capital theater.. They were fantastic and, still are...
I was there. Magnificent.
Saw them in 84. Sounded awesome.
I. Love. Cheap Trick. Robin's vocals with everything else is amazing!!! :)
This is the song that made me a fan.
後ろのviolinを演奏する､お姉さんの笑顔が良いよねぇ。😊
The best live band of all time. =)
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, please welcome to the stage the best f*cking rock band in the world...CHEAP TRICK!

best version of this tune ever
Damnn, the voice man!
They supported Boston as Trickster at my 1st ever concert in Edinburgh - think it was 1978 - couldn’t believe what a superb support act they were!
すげーかっこいい！！最高！！

You know they mean business when they bring in a complete ensemble. Love it!
Saw them in Greeneville, TN last night. They sounded AMAZING!!
Always are, my friends
I have trouble sleeping & love this song and band!
WOW!! That looked like an awesome show! Can't believe these guys can still rock like that...better than allot of what's out there right now.

Absolutely brilliant
Uh-huh . Hold on to your dreams : )
Found myself in the audience when I paused the clip. One of the best Trick shows I've ever seen. I felt like I picked the post-DP songs.
最高！しびれた！
That's CHEAP TRICK! So awesome.
wooooooooooooo i love cheap trick soo much
still at it after all these years - kickin' ass!!
Still rocking
Agreed! This is just as slammin' today as it was back then! Awesome! Thanks for the post!
Sounds great. I am all for Cheap Trick getting into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next year. They are long overdue.
The actual Police officer rocking along to the song is pure awesomeness. #DOMOARIGATO
I just saw Cheap Trick for the first time at Coney Island Brooklyn on July 12th. They blew me away! I still keep going over that concert in my head! I cannot get enough video of them!!
Epic!!!!!
I was born again 😎👍
Saw them at Legend Valley, outdoor show in Thornville, Ohio 1979.
man am I ever late to the party, but better late than never. Damn this was killer! The way he plays the mic, I bet Robin's voice could crack plaster!
Like Rick always says, "The man of a thousand voices, and there all good"
Zander still has it.
George yes
Absolutely fantastic!!!
A lucky audience .
Great song. Great band. That’s it…
still so amazing - thanks guys!!! Saw you the first time in 77 and 43 times since - love ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yup, I first saw them in 1977 when they opened for KISS in San Francisco at the Cow Palace. Was a fantastic show. Have seen them live at least 25 times live since that first concert. These guys always put on a great show. Glad they finally made it into the RRHOF!!!!!!!

Tom Peterson...one hell of a bass player.
Yes, and considering he plays a 12 string bass. His sound and tone is just incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!! 👍
excellent!!!!
Great interview on Howard Stern this week. Somewhere in one of my drawers I have two of Rick's guitar picks; I need to dig them out.
+Bob A Booey Do they confer the ability to play guitar like that? If so, can I get Liberace's gloves?
Absolutely love this video!!!!
Many people say to me...Cheap Trick...who the damned is Cheap Trick??? and I say ... It`s one of the world greatest bands...DAMNED!!!
One of the greatest rock tunes ever. Love the lyrics! I love dreaming. Fcuking cops are everywhere man!
simplemente geniales
Siempre me gusto el sonido de Cheap Trick Clasicos del Rock
OMG that was incredible! What a performance and camera work. I to hope this is for a Blu Ray just unbielavable!!
