I went to Miller Beer's "Rock Through Time" concert at Roseland in NYC a few weeks ago.
Ben Folds, Cheap Trick, The Strokes, and Velvet Revolver performed.
To close the show, VR, who were headlining, were joined on stage by Robin Zander and Rick Nielsen (from Cheap Trick) to perform "Surrender". It freakin rocked!
I didn't take these but HERE is a link to some awesome pictures of that night! I love the one of Scott Weiland holding Rick's 5-neck guitar.
Oh yeah - during Cheap Trick's set, Alice Cooper came out and sang "I'm Eighteen" with them.

I heard about that! Lollapalooza 1996 in either Rockford or Chicago? That was the only date on the Lolla tour that Cheap Trick was on.

Not a big GBV fan, but I will definitely check out their version of "Downed" though - thanks!

No could not make that but just saw them in CT. a couple of weeks ago ( and Summerfest a couple of months ago)when I went home to visit my parents.
Heard the same about the set list at Navy Pier (CT. was your standard one) but I have seen almost everyone of their songs live.

Oh cool - I was in Norwalk too
I so wanted to go to Cali either last weekend or last night/tonight, because 2-night stands = different sets!
Did you see them in Summer 2001 when Daxx took over for Bun for a little while? Those shows to me were unbelievable.

I'm guessing that if we don't know each other, then we probably know some of the same people.

A friend of mine (also my TF3 roommate) "introduced" the band at the covers show, and he got TP's setlist.
Yeah I'm a diehard/hardcore, I admit it! My wife isn't....yet!
Like my standard sig says - "Life is oh so much better when you're looking forward to seeing Cheap Trick"
And Buford - MORE POWER TO YA - that rules!
