Cheap Trick formed out of Rockford, Illinois in 1973. They were very popular in the 1970s and 80s. Some of their hits include: "Surrender", "Dream Police", "I Want You to Want Me" and "The Flame". They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016. Their work bridged elements of '60s guitar pop, '70s hard rock, and the emerging punk rock sound, and would help set the template for subsequent power pop artists

I've lost count at the number of times I've seen Cheap Trick perform over the years. Definitely over a dozen times. Always a great rock show, whether opening for another act with a 45 minute to an hour set, or a full headlining 90 minute show, the band always delivers.
