I'm 59, and a big cheap trick fan. I was a big fan of them going back to the mid to late 70s. When the dream police came out, I couldn't get enough of it, even till this day.

[@sunraider0_0]

Saw them with Def Leppard at end of 2018. Bloody brilliant!! Hello there ladies and gentleman - are you ready to rock!!

[@danielfox3003]

I drive a cab in Portland. I picked up Rick one day and took him on a short ride across the river into downtown, I didn’t recognize him at first (he’s older and bigger now). We were chatting and he told me his band was playing at the Zoo that night, I said “oh,yeah”? …. What’s your band’s name? He says, Cheap Trick… I almost wrecked my fuggin cab. I told him I was a long time fan and apologized for not recognizing him. He gave me a guitar pick. Cool guy.

[@danielfox3003]

Also, Surrender is a rock classic and easily in the top 20 rock songs ever written.

What I love about this band is that they don't take themselves too serious and pump out great music at the same time. Not too many bands can do that.

[@Brewzerr]

Yep. Cheap Trick showed us 70's kids that arena rock can actually be FUN without taking yourself seriously. By the late 70's I was so fed up with all the 'serious' rock stars and their pose. Rock had reached a point where the band members thought themselves godlike and untouchable to the teeming masses. I started getting more into the (then) new punk and new wave bands around that time, but Cheap Trick was an exception. Even after I dove headfirst into hardcore punk I still kept waving the banner for CT. They always put the music and the energy ahead of the dumb rock star mystique. Still a great band to this day (though I really miss Bun E Carlos).

This is one of those songs that truly defined the times, during which it came out. I hear it, and I instantly picture myself at school in the eighth grade, and remember how it felt to be me at that time. It's not like I was a Cheap Trick fan, but I will forever associate this song with 1979-1981. (Nostalgic sigh.) And listening to it 40 years later, it is a solid rock & roll tune.

By '78 they were already huge in Japan, and they were starting to take off pretty quickly here in the states. Surrender made a small splash on the charts that summer. I was already into them by then, but I didn't get to actually see them until the following year, on this tour, with Sweet at the Sam Houston Coliseum in Houston. One of the top 10 best shows I've ever been to in my life. However I did finally get to see them at a bar many years later, in '97 at Stubb's BBQ in Austin. That show was almost as good.

The Stooges were actually the first proto-punk band. But CT certainly influenced other artists in their wake, for sure.

[@Brewzerr]

As much as I love Cheap Trick... I mean, they've been one of my top 5 favorite bands for about 43 years now... I gotta say no to this. There were *SOOO* many other bands before this that kicked the doors down for punk and 'alternative' music. I mean, where to begin? A good starting point would be the mid 60's with bands like the Velvet Underground, 13th Floor Elevators, and the Sonics (among many others). In the late 60's and early 70's there was the Stooges, MC5, New York Dolls, Modern Lovers, Droogs, Flamin' Groovies, etc... and then punk pretty much kicked off in '75, at least in NYC -- two whole years before Cheap Trick even had their first album out. Punk bands like the Dictators and the Ramones had albums out before Cheap Trick did. I'll tell ya what CT should be credited for, and that's making arena rock FUN again. They proved to the world that big time rock bands don't have to take themselves too seriously to be successful. They made it accessible at a time when most rock stars thought themselves godlike and untouchable. They were kind of like the missing link between big arena rock and punk/new wave attitude

I got to meet these guys back in 84 in Killeen Tx. they showed up at a bar right outside the main gate of Ft. Hood which is where i was stationed, they are pretty kool and laid back people, :)

An incredibly talented band. One of my all-time favs.

I’m watching cheap trick videos getting excited for Sunday! Wife got me tickets for my 39th bday. Trying to see as many bands as I can these days. Anything rock and roll. Just saw guns and Roses in August. 🤘from death metal to classic rock, grunge and punk. Love it all.

[@kevingraham236]

Thanks for the warning guys! Another rock band ahead of its time! Namaste

They still haunt me til this day. Cheap Trick. With this. Why we lived the American music scene 40 years ago.

[@MrRusspel]

Lived and loved

[@CR-mp5nt]

I never really got this band way back when. Still far from my favorite but all their music invokes memories of a better time in the USA

[@ocevicheband502]

Saw Cheap Trick at Auckland town hall ....the mezzanines were warping and waving with all the kids jumping in time to the band. Awesome Gig!!!

[@richr.7698]

I got to see them perform at Disneyland for my Grad night in 1984. Excellent show!

[@wolfman205]

[@ericbaumert7392]

I was 11 years old when Dream Police was released,which at the time,was very popular. I would hear it being played on the jukebox in my school cafeteria almost everyday. This was my first introduction to Cheap Trick,who became one of my most favorite bands of all time. Dream Police,in my opinion,is the quintessential song that displays the great talent of all the members in Cheap Trick,especially Bun E. Carlos who has often been overlooked for being an excellent drummer. His drumming is impeccable as the song reaches a crescendo with the string section.

[@TruthSurge]

Robin had an amazing voice.

[@MrPadraic23]

Still does

[@celaine1970]

He sure DOES!!! 😎

[@mrorionfan1]

The two guys harmonize really well. HAVE ALWAYS NOTICED THAT!!!!

[@yeahsure4796]

So do you!

[@Brewzerr]

Saw them as recently as fall 2018, and his voice was still just as strong as it was in the late 70's.

[@adamr9720]

I’ve got tickets to see them this summer with Def Leppard and Journey in Orlando. I’m taking a trip back to the 80s with my wife. I can’t wait.

[@ediann]

Im so amazed how 2 gorgeous long haired rockstars, a conservative accountant playing drums & a genius man child playing guitar came to form Cheap Trick! Well it certainly worked for them as they are in the Rock and Roll hall of fame and their music rocks!

[@scottdavidson526]

One of the greatest rock groups in the modern era. Very influential and a HOF induction. Love you guys always.

[@Forever1980s]

I don't think there has ever been a drummer more fun to watch than Bun E. AND he's smoking heaters while he's drumming. Amazing!!!

[@ruthdixon7807]

you gotta love those violin like keyboards and melodramatic mid section. fantastic stuff.

I still love how the most played part of this video's is Robin lineup scene. 🤣😍😍

This is an all time classic song, it borders on rock opera and has great humour and emotional intensity. (Mmmm Tom Petersson what a beautiful person 💜) Thanks guys 🎸🎵⭐

Very Happy 74th Birthday Richard Alan Nielsen December 22, 1948. Elmhurst, IL. Thank you for all the life long favorite rock songs with Cheap Trick. Your guitars are memorable too. Many More Rick..

My first concert, 1979 summer, just out of high school, had the world by the balls. The Romantics opened for them. It was AWESOME. Madison Square Garden (which is actually round) and the venue. I'm 57 now and I STILL LOVE CHEAP TRICK. If you come to Noo Yawk I'm going to see you guys. 💝💕💞❤

@@Saab901 hahaha. they all seem bigger than life when there up on the stage. I think it is our mind that tricks us and when we see them in person they look smaller than our brain initially made them out to be. Great concert. I kept yelling out Surrender, not knowing that bands have a set list that they hold fast to... lol Keep on keeping on brother, we have a lot of great memories. 💪🏻💪🏾

[@loudmusic67]

This was the very first video I ever saw way before MTV was born. I think I saw it on Kasey Kasem's Top Ten TV show...I love the intro to this video, great group to see in concert!

[@Brewzerr]

I remember seeing this video on HBO (when it was still just billed as "Home Box Office") back then. In those days, there would be these long gaps between movies where they would either show student art films or music videos, and this video got a lot of play

[@davidgrant8570]

These guys are musical geniuses!
