Yes, I will concur. These are the type of guys who have such an inflated sense of self, they are convinced they are funny and just don't understand why we don't find them equally hilarious....
Last night was my 6th or 7th time I have seen Cheap Trick. I first saw them ages ago when they were touring for 'In Color' and I can honestly say that they still play with the intensity I witnessed at that first show. I don't know how they do it, but it is so cool to see these 50s-something guys rockin' out...and still having such fun doing it.
