Thanks for the heads up. Loooooong time Cheap Trick fan.

Good show. Robin's pipes are still in good shape and Rick's playing is amazing as always.

thanks for the tip. Robin is singing great and Jennifer sang great. Nice combo !

My two daughters have a friend who had a part in the recent Dolly Parton movie, "Coat of
Many Colors".

Nettles was in the movie, the friend said she was really nice.

Robin's pipes are still in good shape...

I'd say they are far better than "good shape"... Zander is one of the most underrated rock singers, IMO, waaaaaaaaaaaaay better than a lot of the guys who get all the attention.

Crossroads has been a consistently brilliant series. Whomever puts these people together, gets it.

A friend was at the taping. He said it was great. I heard Robin had some post show comments with regard to Jennifer, but I don't know what he said.

Oxymoron saying "cheap trick" and "Jennifer Nettles" iin the same sentence.

Cheap Trick is seriously underrated in my town, but everyone knows who Jennifer is.

One of my most played cd's is their greatest hits album.
Hehehe I only meant as compared to 30 years ago. The guy is 63 now after all. I thought he totally held his own with Nettles!

I'm not a fan of Crossroads. It seems like an attempt to crossover to a crowd that's not gonna get you. I love Cheap Trick, but I have little interest in seeing them 1) having their songs butchered by someone else and 2) spending half the show singing songs that aren't theirs, essentially becoming the backing band for someone I know so little about.

I know, I know..... listen to Nettles. I know, I know.... 'it'a all music, brother'. I know, I know.... it's the only way CT are getting on TV at this point. But just.... nah. I don't like modern country. I tried, and I don't like it and I don't get it. 95% of what passes for modern country is disposable pop with a red state twist.

Robin Zander and Roy Orbison

in the same sentence

I saw a bit last night. It was good. Robin lives local here and has gotten on stage with some friends. He is a cool dude. There is something different about Nettles... She get some surgery or Botox?

 

[modulusman]

Just watched it and I thought it was great.

Love CT, anything that gets them greater exposure is OK by me.

I thought the show was great!
