Reply #19: My favorite Ben song live

[Philostopher]

was 'Crosstown Traffic.' Man, they tore the house down on it.

I knew the story behind 'Brick' -- I just wondered if Ben wasn't playing a convoluted joke on somebody. He does have a tendency to do such things.

And as for Cheap Trick -- I like 'Eponymous 1997' but for the most part, I guess the Petersson-free years didn't do a lot for me, and there hasn't been an awful lot other than '97 that's caught my ear since. You're right it's a shame -- we saw them preview the material on the last album at Bayfest in Sarnia, Ontario last summer, and I elected not to buy it. The show made me sad, and it wasn't all because I'm getting old.
