Cheap Trick in Vegas doing Sgt. Peppers

[ricmic]

I saw just a clip here, I think. Has anyone got any info on that show? How far did that end up going? Mark

It was a great show. I saw it twice in Vegas and once at the Hollywood Bowl. Vegas was better (IMO), as it didn't have all the "guests". What did you want to know?

Was anything released for mass consuption? I would like to hear/see it all. Great band, this had to turn out well. Mark

[tmossman]

Not from the the Vegas shows. There are some non-offical sound recordings floating around (I haven't heard a really good Vegas one yet). If you haven't seen the Hollywood Bowl or NY shows there is a dvd here

Thanks Todd for the link. I think I need to check that out. Mark

Saw the Hollywood bowl show two years in a row. Guest stars were OK. Cheap Trick were loose, sloppy, making mistakes; in other words, pure rock and roll. And the material wasn't bad, either!

The shows I saw, CT played both sets, with the guests (first) set, then SPLHCB in sequence.

Saw this at the Hilton in LV back last July. Great show. Was on the receiving end of one of Rick's Pick Flick during the show as I was in the 3rd row. It nearly took my eye out! But I go a nice souvenier, anyway, along with the autographs.....

Got a chance to chat with Geoff Emerick for a while after the show about the remasters, and with Rick Nielsen.
