"You have to embrace where you are from", says Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers about Rick Nielsen.

About a month before The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Ceremony, I asked Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick a favor.

September 30th 1998, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Rick Nielsen of Cheap Trick was on The Drew Carey Show.

If you are planning on attending a show and sit in the nose bleed section of the Coronado performing Arts Center, you will notice one seat clearly stands out from all the rest, and with good reason.

Now that our hometown heroes Cheap Trick are in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, let's go back to last Thursday and revisit my interview with Rick Nielsen.

Relations between Cheap Trick and exiled drummer Bun E. Carlos have been strained over the past few years, but they're setting aside their differences for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction.

Miles Nielsen, the son of Cheap Trick's Rick Nielsen, is set to release his third album, 'Heavy Metal,' on April 29.

November 12th will be a day the students at Lincoln Middle School will remember forever. They will remember it as the day a rock star came to their school.

Rick Nielsen's guitars -- up to and including that crazy-cool five-necked one -- are as much a part of Cheap Trick lore as their power-pop hits.

I have to say, Rockford's own Rick Nielsen has some of the coolest selfies I've ever seen.
