1977 for me, but yes, Kiss was the headliner. They blew Kiss away in volume. Great show, great songs, never heard of 'em. Bought their first (only) album after that.
@@johnspooner1403 I first saw them also in 1977 opening for KISS. At the Cow Palace in Daly City, CA. It was an awesome concert and Cheap Trick Rocked!!!!!!!!!!
Holy cow - rockin' song! Wouldn't be out of place as a single on one of their albums 40 years ago. I just want to point out that three of the guys on that stage are around 70 years old ... yet they're still rocking just as hard with a new song as just about any band out there today. Really enjoyed that...
I hate to inform some of you people but when you get old you look old. You don’t stay young forever. Christ! I suggest the ones with issues of Aging just die young so you don’t have to worry about getting or looking old.
@@infoblack4455 I couldn’t agree with you more. I just get tired of hearing people whine about how old the band members look. 😡 I had to get that off my chest! Apparently some people think when you hit a certain age you’re worthless and you shouldn’t do anything. But yes I thought they sounded fab and they looked great also!
Do yourself a favor and check out the You Tube video of their performance of "Gimme Back My Bullets" during Lynyrd Skynyrd's "One More For the Road" performance. Great concert and kudos to all the performers, but Cheap Trick's performance was one of the standouts that night. I'd provide the link but apparently YT won't permit it (who knows why?). Enjoy!
Thank you Stephen for inviting the legend Cheap Trick. The band was one of my favorites during college years in Michigan. It will be a treat to invite great music legends from 70s and 80s times. Thank you again🙏🏻
Say what you want about Daxx, but I think he's a fantastic drummer. I miss Bun as much as anyone but at least they brought in a guy with talent, and you couldn't find someone more connected than a member's son. Rock on, Daxx🤘
these guys never disappoint....if you ever get a chance to see them live ....just do it....I have many times and am always impressed ...every single time.
Wow.... Cheap Trick still putting out great music. The new album has some great songs! If you haven't already heard another song off this new album, check out LIGHT UP THE FIRE 🔥! Love that song too! God bless CT! Still fabulous after all these years! Prayers for Tom...get well soon! 🙏🙏
I saw these guys in 1977. I caught one of Rick Neilsen's picks. I had a Cheap Trick t-shirt that I wore until it looked like spider web. I love this band.
Glad to see the next generation, assisting the original members that are still present. Loved the “Bun” miss him but kinda understand. Keep rock’n Rockford’s best!!! I’ll be waiting to buy tickets again, if possible! Checking out, eastern Iowa.
oops made mistake I have liked them since 79. they have been my fav for a long time, reminding of my of the beatles as well. Robin does have the voice of an angel and Rick plays great. Sorry to here about Tom but glad he got to play. Dax plays drums great. Glad though when I saw them get in ducted in Hall of fame that Bun E Carlos was there playing. He was part of them for a long time.
Fun to see Robin Zander's son, Robin Taylor Zander on the guitar, and Rick Nielsen's son, Daxx Nielsen on the drums. Get well soon to the legendary Tom Petersson, who was sitting down because he just had heart surgery.
What a band, what a song, what a performance! I'm keep coming back to this because, honestly, it was one of those pieces of entertainment that gave me strength during those recent dark years. Glad we made it through, boys! :)
The song began as a Demo song called " Rolling Stoned" which can be found some places. The first two lines from the Demo are " Take it Easy,,,Let it Bleed..."
I bought the álbum there are so Many gems in it. Loved the title Sony in another world and the rock songs. The last song "gimme truth" sounds like a Lennon song. Get the álbum, won't regret it. Hello from old México! Daxx is an excelente drummer!!!
Take it eaaaasy, Tom, we need you!!! Roll down the window Robin, you sound better than ever you sexy Rock God--damn you're gorgeous man --hair looks great!!! Rick, jaw dropping great riffs, you still got what it takes, hon! Dax you belt it out, baby!!! Robin Taylor, you are a multi talented hurricane, son. Yall hurry back now from down under, we need you high rollers in Texas!!!🥰
If you haven't, buy 'The Rockford' album 2006 and this new one I'll get somewhere. The Rockford Album along with Ray Davies release in 2006 proved that Rock will never die. I have their Christmas Album so I'm crossing my fingers Cheap Trick's newest will be the best yet.
Rick Neilson is a great guy! I saw them a thousand years ago when they just started getting known and caught one of Ricks guitar picks that he throws to the audience. 30 years later I had a chance to see them perform Sargeant Pepper for a charity event. I went up to Rick after the show and told him the story of seeing them all those years ago and catching that pick. He was so gracious and took a picture with me and my wife and then gave me another guitar pick. It’s great when your heroes live up to your expectations. Love Cheap Trick,
as the stage fog settles and the spotlights fade and the last Groupie visits the free clinic, Robin Zander will still be Greatest Rock Frontman of ALL TIME
Still cranking some awsome music! Heard something on the radio that they might be up in N.Mich to do some shows maybe later in the summer. Definitely go if they do!!!
The Greatest Rock-n-Roll Band in the Land! Still bumping out great music. Go get 'Another World' now on vinyl or digital immediately! If you don't I will call your Mom and tell on you.
I can still remember the first time I heard them: it was 1979 in San Antonio and some guy put on "Surrender". I could not get enough. I have seen them live and they are electric. After seeing this, I would see them again. Robin and Rick, if you read this come out to San Diego this summer. The Observatory is a great venue.
I saw Cheap Trick July 3, 1976 at Summerfest with Peter Frampton, Bachman Turner Overdrive, Gary Wright, Steve Miller, Supertramp, Triumph, Zebra......There was Bun E., high up on the riser above them all, raining down the thunder. His masterful playing laying down the groove melding with and covering the parochial efforts of the bass and infusing life into the crude chording. Spontaneous, ,inspired, machine like, cohesive kind of drumming that sends shivers up the spine. C.T. just don't serve up the same deli style flavor sandwich with no Bun in the oven. PUT THE BUN BACK IN THE OVEN!!!
ALWAYS... been my American Beatles, since the beginning! Still have IT, BUT... I'm a HUGE Bun E. FAN & this just hurts w/out. Bun E. Carlos IS CHEAP TRICK
@@rowauthority Ummmm...that's *NOT* the legitimate Colbert channel. One subscriber? It's a bot that misappropriated the Colbert logo to appear "legitimate".
Cheap Trick still rocks. I just saw them in Morristown, NJ and they were great. And if you liked this song, check out the album In Another World as it's their best in years. I think they look great and sound great.
Just got this cd its frickin awsome a must have can't wait to see them this summer in Cleveland be my 4th time I'm 59 lol first time I saw them 16 they are amazing
"gonna buy an old tour bus full of new guitars"...Richard Nielson inspired that lyric in the Nickelback song, he was even in the Guiness book of World Records for his guitar collection.
I've always loved the checkerboard Explorer guitar since it appeared on the cover of the Dream Police album...cool to see it still living the rock 'n' roll life...so iconic.
These dudes are so cool. Still have it after all these years.
@dorene 🤘🤘🎸 🎸 😊
I am blown away, my first concert was these guys opening for kiss in 1979. just wow, always loved these guys.
luckyyy still trying to see them and im old too haaa

Now thats a Cheap Trick song, The best Rock and Roll band ever.
Cheap Trick is a good band but greatest ever? Get real.
Haha. No.
Give me Blackberry Smoke any day!

Wow, Robin's voice still sounds great. Love the new song. Any Cheap Trick album is always worth a listen.
Saw them in 1992 and Yes 29
Years later his voice is Still Awesome.
Killer riffs, killer vocals. Nothing cheap 'bout that trick.
Thank you Stephen for inviting the legend Cheap Trick. The band was one of my favorites during college years in Michigan. It will be a treat to invite great music legends from 70s and 80s times. Thank you again🙏🏻

He's a super nice and down to earth guy, too!
and that's Robin's Son on Rythm guitar. Keeping the good Family vibe going!
He does a nice job of respecting Carlos' slapdash style without just aping it.
@@Handlemcdaniel Totally agree
Agreed. Daxx is a great guy and super talented. This performance was stellar!
For those who don't know: the first 25 seconds were the good old "Colbert Report" intro theme. :-)
Zander is a vocal giant. love these guys since 1976
This album should be number 1 on billboards charts...the whole album Rocks...can't wait to see the boys out on the road soon...
The last band standing... from the 70's, that is. Rock on forever Cheap Trick. Much love to all of you.
That's the truth! Why people go see bands with one remaining member (or none!) I'll never understand - when you can see Cheap Trick!
Awwww, how great to see this awesome band! My crush on Robin Zander celebrates it's 42nd birthday this year. Still looking and sounding dreamy... ♥️

I'm glad the drummer isn't a Bun E look alike in appearance and style, but he was the Ringo Starr of Cheap Trick.
Saw these guys in concert in 1979 and 2018. They still sound great and Robin still has an amazing voice❤ 🤘😎
@🤘🤘🎸 🎸 😊
Very cool they started with the old Colbert Report theme song

One of my favourite bands. Seen them in concert many times. 👍😊👏
@julie 🤘🤘🎸 🎸 😊
damn they sound good
@Mike. Fróm Watch This Rócket. bad bot
Cheap Trick drops a new disc and Henry Kissinger is trending on Twitter. Am I in alternate reality 1979?
Exactly how I feel, I love these guys. Hard working blue collar band!
Album version is great but this is even better. Coming back to this regularly. Thanks all and rock on! ✌🏼 (we made it!)
Greatest American band ever
Fantastic - they NEVER lost it.
Hot Damn Dax knows how to swing. He truly is a worthy successor to Bun E. Both new songs sound fantastic!
Absolutely!!!
I also noticed that Dax was kicking ass
Daxx tore it up! Outstanding performance.
Fun to see Robin Zander's son, Robin Taylor Zander on the guitar, and Rick Nielsen's son, Daxx Nielsen on the drums. Get well soon to the legendary Tom Petersson, who was sitting down because he just had heart surgery.

😂🤣
Great lyric reference there bud! Got a chuckle out of me, thanx!
It’s good to be weird. They’re allowed just like you
@@Sunnysets It's a reference to their old hit "Surrender" 🤣🤣😓🤣🤣
The Dream Police live inside their heads

Wow, they still sound amazing!

Great band. I was lucky enough to work as a stage hand for them , once, many moons ago.
Omg they are still Rocking after all these years. Way to go my hometown guys from Rockford IL. I am a huge fan. ❤️💖💙
@🤘🤘🎸 🎸 😊
I can never stop loving this band.
I think this technically makes Stephen a conjurer of Cheap Trick
I like your thinking. Hahaha
Amazing performance by an amazing band. Thank you Cheap Trick!
The chorus reminds me of “Street Fighting Man”. The song definitely rocks big time.
The band GLITTER DOGS is similar, but waaaay better
The song began as a Demo song called " Rolling Stoned" which can be found some places. The first two lines from the Demo are " Take it Easy,,,Let it Bleed..."
@@phillipcegielski Very interesting. Thanks for the cool facts.
@@smudgecapone9836 😆
Awesome! Love the new songs. Top form. Daxx tears it up in this performance!
The lads are sounding killer and the lads of the lads are a great asset to the family business!
Love love love from a lifelong fan!
So proud of my hometown boys!!!!

Oh gawd, my favorite band on Colbert. :(
as the stage fog settles and the spotlights fade and the last Groupie visits the free clinic, Robin Zander will still be Greatest Rock Frontman of ALL TIME
yay.
This song is surprisingly fucking good, like this could have easily been on one of their records in the 70s and 80s. Awesome.
The opening part was the theme song Baby Muggles written by Cheap Trick for the Colbert Report.
I love that they played the Colbert Show theme before the new song from In Another World.

Sounded great.
Part of me wants to say "Leave Rock to the young", but Cheap Trick still has it. Well done Guys! PS, Great to see Rick Nielson play again.
