Cheap Trick's Rick Nielsen Says He'd Be In AC/DC If Not For Red Tape
. His planned move Down Under hit problems in 1971 because of a quarantine issue and he insists he would have made an impact in the country - although Cheap Trick would never have formed. He tells the Newcastle Herald: "In 1971, we tried to emigrate to Australia before we had any kids, so our dog was our kid. They wouldn't let us in the country. We had to be in quarantine. I'd be in AC/DC or The Angels right now if that had have happened." But Nielsen and Cheap Trick will get a chance to revisit Australia when they'll hook up with The Angels for a co-headlining show at A Day On The Green in February 2015. It will be their first visit to the country since their 2008 run with Def Leppard. Read more here. Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
