Rock

Twelve hours later and my ears are still ringing.

Cheap Trick are the masters of their art.

Rick's guitar playing was as potent and driven - brutally loud and obnoxious! Robin still has the voice to melt metal - effortlessly powerful and heartfelt as ever. Tom is the still the world's best 12-string bass player - viciously noisy and bold. Daxx (deputising for the peerless Bun E.) held all the madness together - providing a solid backbone to this remarkable quartet's brand of Power Pop.

It was the best gig I've been too - they were that good. It's said that sometimes you should never see your heroes in the flesh, you'll only be disappointed. Cheap Trick didn't disappoint me. They re-affirmed my faith in Rock.

Rock and Roll will save the world. I saw a glimpse of it last night. You read it here FIRST!
