And then saw them in Zivko's Has-been palace near Hartford; they were simply awful, and we left.<br /><br />So many years later in the 90s, I saw they were coming to Shank Hall (300 people!) and it was 15 bucks. Hell, I paid fifteen bucks to see them the first time at the Coliseum, so I took a chance.<br /><br />And they were stellar. I believe that most decent bands reach a point, where if they can stay together while fortunes are sliding, they discover that playing music is actually a pretty good job, and re-discover the love of the music that got them started in the first place. I call it the Cheap Trick INflection Point.<br /><br />Since, they have managed to climb back up the touring ladder a bit, and are of course hitting the has-been festival circuit, as well as some decent theaters. The motto on their t-shirts is now "On Tour Forever".zombie rotten mcdonaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10601960953323752278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4262822907764537858.post-64449928421876088132012-12-30T12:23:26.869-06:002012-12-30T12:23:26.869-06:00It's bloody infuriating.
