History Of Cheap Trick Hometown Shows In Rockford, Illinois

Cheap Trick have been road dogs their whole career touring all over the world many times over but what's their history of concerts in their hometown of Rockford, Illinois?

How Many Shows Has Cheap Trick Played In Their Hometown Of Rockford, Illinois?

It's funny, before I moved to Rockford I had only seen Cheap Trick one time in concert. That was in 1987 at the Rosemont Horizon opening for Ratt. Since then, I've lost track. I think because they're the "hometown boys," residents of the Forest City forget the band is world famous.
