Speaking with John Katsilometes of The Las Vegas Review-Journal, Cheap Trick guitarist Rick Nielsen recalled, “The first time we played Vegas (in 1977), we opened for Kansas, and they wouldn’t even put us on the marquee. They didn’t want the words ‘cheap trick’ on a casino marquee.”
“We’re going to play sort of like what we had done before, when we’ve played a full album, and then extra tracks,” Nielsen said. “We’re going to try to do that in Vegas. We can play the first album, the second album, third album and fourth album over a four-night stand.”
