cheap trick

...although really, how could anyone have seen it coming? And yet, how could we not? What follows is exactly what it appears to be, Cheap Trick performing "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" live, in its entirety, even madder and more perfect than I possibly imagined, featuring a blend of hubris and humility that only Cheap Trick could muster.









Worth registering at Lala.com to hear the full length clips, but even the samples give you an idea what you're in for. Pretty much every song has its own highlights, but I was especially impressed with the last two. Talk about audacious! A remarkable interpretation of A Day In The Life (not that anybody could possibly COVER it), and the Paul medley from Side Two of "Abbey Road." Wonderful.

What do you think? Are you as tickled as I am by this?

And so, the celebration of Beatles Week continues....
