We had a real comedian working at the Cheap Trick show in Willow Grove, PA last night. Fellow Auditeer Mark Eichelberger was with me and will concur I'm sure. The show was held on a military base, and the colors were presented before the show with the "Star Spangled Banner". As the song ended, the funniest man in the world yelled out "Gentlemen start your engines". Swell.
Not getting much of a response, he spent the rest of the evening making ear-piercing whistles - so much so that we left our spots and leave the "whistler" behind. At least we got closer to the stage.
By the way, CT was pretty incredible. Loud, tight, a ton of energy, and I am now convinced that no performer has more fun onstage than Rick Nielsen.
