2010 may be a good year for Cheap Trick. They got some exposure with the younger kids in an episode of One Tree Hill (though it did not start rolling 'til middle way in) http://ch131.com/onetreehill715.htm (skip to somewhere around 19 minutes to see the band's scenes unfold)
Some of their current release is seeing some hopeful download traffic on places like iTunes. They of course will again engage in touring everywhere and every week to support The Latest as well as tour as opening act in a few places around the world. The will do some live performances on PBS for Soundstage and Austin City Limits. These guys just work all the time and may get some notice this year. ARE YOU LISTENING ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME!!
One of the best bands on the list of musicians not yet induced to The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
I got tickets to see them in my area in March and then in April I will see Jeff Beck as well. Damn I just spent about $180 to see some aging rock stars perform live. Don't think I have ever spent more than $40 on one concert ticket.
