A few days after seeing one of my favourite bands, Blue Oyster Cult, I got to see another great American group, Cheap Trick, at Manchester Academy.
Not quite as familiar with Cheap Trick as BOC, but recognised a lot of the set ('Clock Strikes Ten'; 'Surrender'; 'I Want You To Want Me'; 'The Dream Police'; 'If You Want My Love' etc.).
And the tunes from the recently released 'We're All Alright' album, especially 'Long Time Coming', were great live too.
Had only seen Cheap Trick once before, at Manchester Academy 2 about seven years ago, when Robin Zander sang everything, so it was interesting seeing Tom Petersson singing 2-3 tunes at the recent gig:
