Cheap Trick’s iconic 1978 live album, “At Budokan,” still reigns supreme in rock history nearly half a century later. The band’s upcoming announcement regarding the album has fans buzzing with excitement. In a recent Instagram post, Cheap Trick revealed plans for two special shows in Las Vegas at The Venetian Resort on April 17 and 18. The band will be performing “At Budokan” in its entirety, along with some of their greatest hits, as part of their All Washed Up tour.
Tickets are now available for purchase to the general public. The All Washed Up tour will also visit 19 other cities across the country, kicking off with rescheduled shows in Madison, Wisconsin, and Waukee, Iowa in late January. This move by Cheap Trick is reminiscent of their previous residency in Vegas, where they performed the entire Beatles album “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” live.
Last month, Cheap Trick revisited the iconic Budokan venue in Tokyo, capturing the journey in a short film. The band’s initial albums may not have made waves in the U.S., but their popularity in Japan led them to a sold-out performance at the Budokan arena, resulting in the surprise blockbuster live album that solidified their status as rock stars.
As fans eagerly anticipate Cheap Trick’s upcoming shows in Las Vegas and beyond, the band’s enduring legacy and musical prowess continue to captivate audiences worldwide. With a reputation that spans generations, Cheap Trick’s impact on rock history remains unparalleled.
