The history of rock and roll is fraught with more than its share of unforeseen circumstances. But none so unforeseen as those in the life of Cheap Trick – Rick Nielsen (guitar), Robin Zander (vocals and guitar), Bun E. Carlos (drums), and Tom Petersson (bass). Circa 1978-79, they jumped from being the biggest band ever to emerge from Rockford, Illinois, to becoming platinum-selling headliners on the cover of Rolling Stone. Chalk it up to Japan, the most unpredictable rock nation on the face of the earth, who held Cheap Trick so close to their hearts that the band’s record company there decided to reward the fans with a live concert album, a souvenir of the band’s incredible two-night stand at the country’s most revered sports stadium in 1978.

Prizing:
TWO (2) VERY lucky dudes or dudettes will both win a copy of the BRAND NEW, four-disc (DVD + 3 CD) Cheap Trick package entitled, Budokan!: 30th Anniversary Edition. This is a serious treat, so what are you waiting for?

Deadline:
November 27, 2008.
