A band who's tricks are simply in the name vs. an artist who's secretly not just a comedian.

Cheap Trick was possibly one of the loudest concerts I've ever attended (Shrine Mosque '89), and while I -- like every right-thinking music fan -- enjoy Live at Budokan, I'm giving the nod here to Weird Al whose satire is often great.

Don't forget his best song, and an original, ALBAQUERQUE!

Weird Al Yankovic performed a cover of Cheap Trick's song 'Hello There' a couple of years ago.

You are fuckking crazy my young brother and I love you. In a good friend way.

 

It's funny. I have tried for decades to love Cheap Trick. They have two good records. I can't stand their fat cigarette cigarette smoking drummer Bun E. Carlos? Junk drummer. Some of you on here make fun of Herman Rarebell. LOL!! Bun E. Is shite.

 

So I have tried Cheap Trick a Heap O Shit.

"Surrender" is great. "Live At Budokan" is great. Meh

Have seen Weird Al in concert twice (went with hubby, he loves him) and have to say he is quite the musician. Made me laugh my head off too. My favorite song is Dog eat Dog
