Well, at least sick man got in. My Obsession should be played at every show. BIG CT fan here.

Great setlist. "Gonna Raise Hell" is one of my fave Tricktunes. And "Dream Police" never gets old.

Same set list with Don't Be Cruel added

I recorded "The Flame" from my iPhone last night. Didn't have the zoom app installed, but I think it came out pretty good. Real nice audio.

Just wish I had known that the iPhone required an app for video zoom before I went to the show. Still happy with it, glad you liked it Jim!

A friend of mine invited me to that show.

I think they leave out a lot of the better tunes for lesser known ones. "Voices", "If you want my love", "Tonight it's you". And I know "Ain't that a shame" isn't one of theirs, but they play it better than anyone. I could care less if I ever hear "I want you to want me" again in my lifetime. A little sidestory FYI. My brother in law is best friend's with Bun E. Carlos brother. While in Orlando, the band stopped by and had dinner with my sister and husband. This was in early 2000.

If You Want My Love and She's Tight were my introductions to Cheap Trick way back in '83 and i also had that album,One On One i think it was.But i did have both of those on '45 first i'm pretty sure.

Nice vid Ed. Not a GIANT Cheap Trick fan by any stretch, but do they ever include songs like I Can't Take It, I Had To Make You Mine, and This Time Around in live sets? Some my faves by them.

I've heard them play all of those songs at times. Trick varies their setlist better than most bands.

You can keep all those songs and give me "I Know What I Want" and "Gonna Raise Hell"

"Gonna Raise Hell" was the first encore.

Heard all of Dream Police live with a symphony a few months back. Awesome show.
