Cheap Trick



Cheap Trick is an American rock band formed in Rockford, Illinois. Robin Zander (vocals and rythem guitar), Rick Nielsen (lead guitar), Tom Petersson (bass guitar), Daxx Nielsen (drums), got together and created the band Cheap Trick in 1973. The bands name was originally callse Fuse but after the addition of Robin Zander, Tom Petersson renamed the band after a rock show where all the bands used "every cheap trick in the book." While Cheap Tricks first three albums made it into the top 40s in America, in Japan they were number one hits. Cheap Trick at Budokan was a live album that was supposed to be exclusive to Japan but was so huge it made its way to America. The bands more classic years were in the 70s and they ended up splitting up in the 80s. Many bands in the 70s were influenced by Cheap Trick. Joey Ramone from the Ramones said that Cheap Trick was his favorite band, Gene Simmons from KISS has responded positively to their music and so has Angus Young. In 2015, Cheap Trick was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
