CHEAP TRICK - Unreleased 1986 Interview With Rick Nielsen Available Michael Brandvold –
Music Marketing Master for Bands and Businesses - reports:
"While in college radio at KGMA at Mankato State University I did a phone interview with
CHEAP TRICK lead guitarist
Rick Nielsen. I am pretty sure this interview never aired, so this is the first time you are hearing it... in its entirety, uncut.
I wonder if the kid who answers the phone is now
Cheap Trick's drummer, Daxx Nielsen?
A little back story for this interview. I was supposed to interview Rick Nielsen backstage at the Met Center in Bloomington, MN.
Cheap Trick were on tour opening for RATT. Unfortunately my backstage access was messed up and I was not able to interview Rick. So it was arranged to do a phone interview."
