    Aw man, those guys were so iconic back in the MTV days, and then I'd hear their older stuff on WKQQ out of Lexington. I always dug them. RIP.

      He was supposed to do a show solo at my local town theatre last year but had to cancel because of the Covid outbreak.

      RIP

          We got to see them in Sept 2019 on their 50th anniversary show. It was a lot of fun and a good show!

          Cheap Trick opened for them, and while I like Cheap Trick they weren't quite so good.

            Remember how huge Eliminator was ?

            One of my fav albums of the 80's --- easily in top 5

                  Just had a flashback of their Legs video

                  Spinning shaggy guitars, chopped Eliminator coupe and girls

                  Man, I still love the 80's

                        I had tix to their show last night in my hometown, Greenville, SC. That's how I heard. Got a text that the show was canceled around 1 or so. What a gut punch!

                            I saw this same tour when it went through Camden, NJ the fall of 2019. Last concert I saw. They did put on a good show, and it was an all around great time with an enthusiastic crowd.

                            And I agree. Cheap Trick wasn't as good. I've seen them a few times though, they're usually better. Too much touring in recent years I guess, though I suspect they got a long rest after the show I saw.

                              Was it at the BB&T Pavilion ?

                              I always wanted to check out The USS New Jersey memorial and see a show afterwards
