Cheap Trick - 'The Latest'
-
Artist:
Tuesday, Cheap Trick will reenter the music market with a new album called The Latest. Not coincidentally, Tuesday, June 23rd, is also the day Cheap Trick hits the road with Def Leppard and Poison. Now, from a straight musicianship point of view, some purists would argue Cheap Trick should headline that bill versus Def Leppard - but I digress. The Latest features 13 tracks, including "When the ...

Track:Sick Man of Europe
That's the name for their new 13-song album- their first since Rockford came out on 6/6/06- set for release on 6/23/09 from www.cheaptrick.com and www.amazon.com. Sick Man of Europe is their first single from it and, in contrast to the album title, the song title is pretty old- it was the name of the group before they became Cheap Trick. So it's yet another Rick Nielsen play-on-words prank. To ...

I read the news this morning that Cheap Trick was self-releasing its new album, which is cool, but not really that newsworthy. Lots of bands have been stepping outside of the "label world" lately. But this paragraph stopped me in...

Album:Budokan 30th Anniversary
Cheap Trick's trip to Budokan really was like the Beatles invading New York for the first time.The new DVD/CD set captures it all- finally! The video of the concert- the concert- was only shown once- on Japanese TV and never here in the US.It was worth the wait. I know the list price of $49.99 is steep and you probably already have the Budokan CD but I found it for under $30 by scanning my favo...

Track:I Want You To Want Me - (live)
So with my last post I seem to have struck a nerve with my fellow mogsters. Can a music collection make or break a relationship. Now I ask, lets say you are a few dates into this new found love, and you want that special person to really get to know who you are. What do you do, well of course you make them a mix tape. Ok, I just dated myself by saying tape, so I will say mix cd. Seeing most mix...

Album:
Cheap Trick played Ribfest 2006 in St. Petersburg, Fla., last night. Fantastic show. Normally I would never go to a food festival to see one of my favorite 80s acts. I just feel bad about the whole thing. But I was desperate.But they sounded great. And the crowd of 10,000-plus (hell, it could have been 40,000 for all I know) was appreciative as hell. Even the songs off their new CD "Rockford" s...

So what inspires your MOG love? And why? What gets you to jump onto a fellow MOGger's thread? What kind of post elicits a comment from you? Need to express solidarity with someone else who just "gets" a favorite artist of yours? Compelled to swap anecdotes or answer a query? Why do you come back here to read, listen, look, post and comment, day after day, week after week?Inquiring MOGs want to ...

Wouldn't Preston Tucker be proud? Talk about gettin' too big fer your britches...The splintering of auto giant GM will shower us with toothpicks for decades, I'm sure. It'll over-burden the already bloated health care system, as well as offer retailer Walmart some brand new work force candidates.Hummer? Sold to China!GM, which filed for bankruptcy court protection on Monday, has said it plans t...

I was not/(am not) a big **Cheap Trick** fan, but this song has rocked my world for a long time.For my money, they became cartoon characters as their career progressed.But on this track they rock like bona fide rockers, ??not?? caricatures.

Nope. Not Sufjan. And not the namesake wordplay from Slade. How'z 'bout Illinois one and only Cheap Trick? Still crankin' it after 30+ years of aural explosions, these guys were pretty much my Beatles. Their last recording, "Rockford", is named after their hometown. Nice homage.Here's Robin Zander in a '76 Trick show at the Columbus, Ohio Agora.
