[@zingermike]

I don’t always listen to Cheap Trick... But when I do, so do my neighbors

[@ericfermin8347]

Most underrated drummer of all times

[@jonathanzissman5476]

I disagree that Barry Carlson is underrated. I'm pretty sure most people see him as the great drummer that he is.

[@sunnystormy4973]

underrated is so overused...

[@rapscallion3506]

I never get tired of Mr. Carlos kicking off this set. Never!

[@jonathanbatturs6359]

How would ya like to be that dude that replaced him, and already know rolling into this song that you could never measure up in a million years!

[@BIFFICATOR]

Awesome Band. I liked the fact that they were hard rockers that were not nasty and did not look like Devil Worshipers. They were like the Who in many ways with their attitude...just a bunch of wild dudes getting down and had a sophistication, not just noise..but they were "loud". Plus they stuck together, and did not pull a Van Halen on us.

[@MrSKINFLICK]

In fact they're R&B with hard rock + punk rock elements. In the late 60s a concert poster of the Who had the lettering: "THE WHO - MAXIMUM R&B". Listen to "The Who - Live At Leeds" + you get how much they're influenced by Townshend + The Who.

[@MicheleDavies-c2l]

I agree, but what an interesting mix, the pretty boy out front in his divine suits, another pretty boy on bass guitar, a crazy but very interesting character on other guitar, and a drummer that everyone says looks like their Accountant, but Wow do they fit together so well!

[@sunnystormy4973]

​@@MicheleDavies-c2l xD !

[@franklinloll2229]

My favorite time for them. It was new and brash. Bun e. Carlos and everyone produced a unique, fun sound

[@marklewis8067]

a band i can never get tired of watching

[@JayMark2049]

The best Ain't That A Shame version I've heard. The intro and outro are just amazing.

[@christiecooper1479]

2022 still cranking this jam🤗🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

[@tekalitha]

Love ❤️ this. The drummer is fricking on fire 🔥

[@BruderBoyTX]

This performance was at the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo. You can see the dirt on the floor when Rick is walking around in front of the stage. The stage actually revolves very slowly. It rotates about 200 degrees, stops, then goes back the other direction.

[@DerSwine]

gotta give it up to Cheap Trick for making a Fats Domino tune one of their go-to live songs for 40 years... total respect for that, and how they kill it every time... nice stick swap at 0:53 by Bun E.... Brad Carlson FTW!

[@karenjacoby2063]

I start and end every day with Cheap Trick. I am obsessed :)

[@BonnieK80]

Same🙌🖤😜🏁🤘

[@dianaaveline5747]

I enjoy a little Cheap Trick with my morning coffee. Greatest way to start my day. :)

[@ibosquez5238]

yup, same

[@jerrydimmer1556]

Definitely this is still the best active band of the universe !

[@randalkjones]

Was there, loved every moment of it.

[@MicheleDavies-c2l]

There's no doubt that the superb guitar and drumming are signature of Cheap Trick but it's Robin Zander's superb voice that ties it all altogether so divinely

[@bitstream9511]

Don't forget Tom Petersson on bass! That 12-string sounds like no other and his absence is quite noticeable on the albums he's not on

[@musicmanfelipe]

I love how they all trade off at the end to close the song.

[@billtolles7406]

Just amazing rock n roll... Cheap Trick Cheap Trick

[@shonnamay8331]

No one Does drums like Bun E😁😁😁Robin is smokin hot🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️on the vocals too

[@blaynesmith7295]

I was at this show they played at the Houston Rodeo I remember the guitarist running out on the field and later his 5 guitar guitar probably the best show i ever saw at rodeo

[@pbldrum]

These guys looked like they had too much fun!!

[@BonnieK80]

Amazing performance🙌 My favorite cover of a rock song ever!! Fats Domino agreed🙌 Pure classic Gold👊🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🏁🖤

[@squonktears6265]

Bun E Carlos one of the greatest figures in rock history . He's doing the intro a little different here . maybe he was a bit tired from the night out before or cheeseburger food poisoning ? dunno

[@idicula1979]

Mr Bun E Carlos and Cheap Trick, the business in the front party in the back band.

[@samuelhall3822]

the whole band underrated

[@r00zTa]

Gets my adrenaline going like no other. I'm luvin it!!

[@angelascarbrough8424]

Carlos breaks tip off, oh well said Carlos I have a spare. Then continues to beat the hell out of that drumkit.

[@skullivanfranklin4117]

Bada$$ Cover!! , I was there in Houston for this Tour .. still remember it like it was yesterday!

[@leemiller349]

Always Cheap Trick. Live u Robin

[@squonktears6265]

Robin Zander has one of the all time great voices . i just wish primo guitarist Rick Nielsen would have taught Robin just a simple guitar lead the could play simultaneously a few bars one after the other a couple times in a song or in a performance . i just love that duo guitar thing . maybe they did, anyone know ?

[@aflsteve9139]

Thanks to CT for sharing these great vids, but you guys really need to package a few of these shows up on a dvd and release it via the website. I'd love to get some more of your live shows.

[@jhamtramck4569]

Tom rockin' that 12 string!

[@shabadoo24]

I love Buns heavy drumming, unlike his replacement.

[@BIFFICATOR]

LOVE CHEAP TRICK...A FRIEND OF MY COUSIN'S IN NASHVILLE PROMOTED THEM BACK IN LATE 70'S EARLY 90'S AWESOME BAND THAT JESUS LOVES TOO!!

[@scottconyer4575]

Anyone here think Bun E was self aware of how damn good he was??? For him it’s like he’s just combing his freaking hair in the morning for Pete’s sake!!! Unreal.

[@Hiker63]

I saw them twice. Once at the Boston Gardens during the Dream Police Tour. Tom was not playing bass that night. The second time was in Florida around 2006 or 2007. They still kick ass.

[@adamb241]

Great song!

[@bwassinger21]

My god this is amazing.

[@cindyimhoff2359]

GOD LOOK HOW TOTALLY HOT ROBIN IS😀😍❤AND THAT VOICE IF HIS....Just makes you melt like an ice cream cone on a hot summer day....

[@Dietpepsivanilla]

The best effin' band to play in the Astrodome. Or anywhere else.

[@richardfiller2108]

Richard is a guitar god

[@DaveWardattorney]

Missed them at the Dome. But, I did see them in 1980 at the old Sam Houston Coliseum. Man, what a show!

[@JohnReganSeattle]

best american band hands down

[@edwardwhite221]

total thumbs down. you need to go outside and buy a second album son

[@leemiller349]

Love you Robin. Kick it

[@bingolookup3071]

That twelve string bass at 4:36. A simple C - D riff sounds like a roaring engine!

[@pavltazzen]

How freaking cool is Tom? So awesome!

[@jameskendall9168]

I'm glued to the tarmac like a deer in the headlights. Cheap Trick doesn't run me over though, they stop their tour plane before it hits me.

[@terrymasters837]

Aerosmith + cheap trick, 2 of our best!

[@mettall1981]

How in the world could Rick play and run around under those hot spot lights with a sweater on? Cool sweater though

[@itsme48423]

man head singer lived like 3 blocks from me in Rockford ill (national ave)

[@ericgagnon5589]

Just great

[@denisecontreras1635]

well back in the day and now today I like them!!!!!!!!!!! I like Robins voice and the sound of the whole band and I like Tom when they both sang! yeah sorry but I did and they were from Rockford and Milwaukee? cool

[@jameshawk4616]

Nice work CT

[@h2ofield]

If they needed any more proof that it's time for the Cheap Trick Mega DVD Box Set, this You Tube CT channel says it all.

[@santabclause5298]

Rock and Roll! 🤘

[@christiecooper1479]

hey Mr Carlos🤗🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

[@chebrneck]

Saw them on this tour in Phoenix at the state fair.

[@simuso3634]

You know: this band had some crazy energy in the videos from the 70's, and that is great, however, this seems to be that sweet-spot in time as the electric amplification tech was heavy, less mobile, and generally had a better sound than later gear invented in the 90 and the 21rst century, you know, the smaller, lighter, more technologically on-point... so, vocals are closer to those great steel hi-fi mics, less movement but heavier, stronger energy, yes?

[@franklinloll2229]

Yes

[@a1chemist1]

Listen to the riffs at 1:19, 1:26, and 1:33. Awesome!

[@frankcastle5294]

Freaking Bunny!!!

[@marthacollopy1405]

love you

[@clydesworld7376]

😎YES YOU ARE BABY 😎

[@jjdvideo]

I agree

[@overallgreatidea6433]

0:32 shows super intuition

[@jenniferbright525]

HI.............................................................................!!!

[@ӇЄ0Ӈ-ф5в]

🔥♥︎🔥♥︎🔥♥︎🔥

[@denisecontreras1635]

I live where I live and my family sssh.

[@EyeWatchThemAll]

Rick looks like he can't figure out how to get back on the stage without losing the intro's momentum, then just says "F**k it!"

[@fredzeppelin5508]

Rick....."Where's the stairs" ! 1:50

[@fandango4273]

The fn best!!!

[@PanaGringoBarefootBass]

@1:50 "I CAN'T FIND THE STAIRS"!

[@har9020]

Good performance of this song, but I like the 1988 Daytona performance much better.

[@benbryson6598]

That's how you blow up a stage

[@matthewslimm4735]

go go drums intro!

[@drm2566]

Great ya to start a set or encore

[@louielovett]

What are Bible and religious comments doing here? Cheap Trick is Rock N Roll.

[@edwardwhite221]

Rick looks smashed on the stage. All over the place. Singer pizzed off a little

[@kaylaschulz4755]

xoxoxo run away

[@ThomasLips]

It's just not cheap trick without Bunn E.

[@AmazingAirshowVideos]

drums!

[@mrphic69]

Y a-t-il des fans français de Cheap Trick?

[@JayMark2049]

I'm not atheist. I am what you could see as a pantheist and even agnostic at some level (although I don't like labels much). Proving "God" imho is impossible because we are part of "it". I don't think it's anywhere "separate" from us. We are all "faces" of it. Everything is. Peace.

[@denisecontreras1635]

I know right I like this band! Are they retired?

[@denisecontreras1635]

I know people break up Dang

[@rachelfranklin3469]

no, theyre still touring + came out w a new album last year

[@JayMark2049]

Who are you to tell the world what it needs and what not? Progressing spiritually is in part to be objective and accpet others as is. Trying to tell other what to do/beleive in is right down going against their own free will. Nobody is forcing you to watch/listen to what you don't like. And you can't force people to think and act as you do. If you find this offensive, that solely because you allow yourself to. Peace.

[@BIFFICATOR]

I understand your way of thinking but what works for me works well and I have experienced many wonderful things through following God's word. People can do what ever they like, the essence of pure freedom. Many people lack discipline laying around in squaller/drug abuse etc. Our Christian Rescue Mission helps people get off drugs, getting their lives back. Child Abuse, murder, harming others (subjective)=bad. Some things require objective and others subjective.

[@joshleeming7796]

ricks playing a dimarzio strat copy if your wondering! i think...

[@charlesmcgilton9591]

Was that concert

[@danielhouseworth5714]

Rick in the dirt. Bet they had a rodeo before show. Lol!

[@itsme48423]

na you could ring his bell his kid and my cousin tony went to school togeter and were friends but i cant remember the kids name!

[@cagwa]

The drums are KICK ASS IN YOUR FACE!!!

[@scottconyer4575]

cagwa very few can match Bun E. He was that special.

[@starlitblond]

I wonder if the drummer uses different color gloves to let him know what hand he is using?

[@BIFFICATOR]

I apologize to those who like heavy metal. I like many of the same styles of music. I am not perfect but we need more love, respect and integrity. If society keeps seeking the "Fleshy stuff" well, we die with it and do not progress spirituallyr. I just do not like bands that use grose nasty (ie dead babies mutilations) no matter what their statement is. If they want to show real pics of death, then show it in a documentary..or sing against it, not venerate it. GOD BLESS Careful what you adorn

[@JayMark2049]

People get offended because you put yourself in a position of telling others what's good and what's bad and how they should behave.

[@JayMark2049]

How do you see where I'm coming from? And why are you assuming you know what I think about good vs evil when I didn't even talk about it? And did Christ talk to you personally or are you assuming that he really said that because of what other people have said? Do you know what objectivity really is? Peace.

[@JayMark2049]

What are you actually replying to? Where did I say that there was no ''creator''?

[@BIFFICATOR]

Lot of wisdom in that phrase! Sorry, no male chickens in my mouth. My last comment to you. I would bet that your next comment will be something nasty, angry, insulting or demeaning. Sorry you are this way.

[@chuckrambo4401]

Don’t let the Sweater fool ya

[@kaylaschulz4755]

steal kiss

[@jj-pi9cu]

So good for a real band to drag a song out of the 'Fats Domino plinky-plonky minceing machine' and make it sound like an actual song

[@rolltide9547]

They did this as a tribute to Fats.

[@constancewessel3906]

Everybody's great, but Bun E is just ripping it up!

[@BIFFICATOR]

Blessings to you!! My atheist cousin communicates w/me as you do, maybe wrong on "where you are coming from" I am not offended by opinions or ideas. Objectivity look s at things from observable truth w/o personal bias. Not subjective as within the mind where emotions/moods can affect the truth. Like proving God in a lab may or may not be possible. I see design, so like a bldg has architect, I believe in designer. Gut feelings tell us a lot not objective. Many mysteries yet to solve!
