Cheap Trick on CASSETTE
(Note: I have
added "unconfirmed" to those items where I've got the info from
a dealers website but have not had confirmation from any other fan that they own or have
seen the item)
I know there are gaps in this discography of tapes, as I didn't really buy
cassettes in my early days of collecting Cheap Trick. So feel free to let me know what's
missing!

T-shirts & Clothing
I know there are lots and lots of
t-shirts, official and unofficial ones as well as for one-off shows and
festivals/multi-band lineups. So I know that there are way more t-shirts
than this! But I've tried to list "official" t-shirts ie those sold through the
fan club or at shows, though I think a few bootlegs have slipped in here. But the list
gives an idea of the range and number of shirts to collect. I believe the listing from
1998 onwards is close to being complete though.

Tour jackets - I'm
aware of at least three that were available for fans to buy. There was the original black
logo satin (late 70's) with the 6x logo printed on the back. In 1985 there was a turquoise
blue "Standing on the Edge" tour jacket, again with printed logo etc. And in
1997 the classic black logo satin jacket was recreated, but this time with the 6x logo
embroidered onto the back. I've also found a red satin jacket
from the 70's with the 6x logo printed on the back *new*.
Rainjacket (2002) - with embroidery to left chest (as I recall)
Blue denim jacket
(2006) - with embroidery to left chest and rear
Dark blue
leisure/jogging top (2007) - with embroidered 2x logo to left chest
Guitar Picks
Robin, Tom and particularly Rick have
used many designs of guitar picks through the years, with Rick's particularly being a
trademark of the band because of his flicking out so many during shows. I'm not a huge
pick collector so no way could I compile a list from the early days, and there are a
couple of fan websites specialising in CT guitar picks (see
http://home.fuse.net/guitar_picks/Cheap_Trick_Guitar_Picks.htm). But I've got some pick pictures to
share, both here and also on the siteupdates.htm
page. Most of those that I've pictured are from the late 90's onwards.
Bun E Drumsticks/Drumheads
There have been several different
drumsticks through Bun's career. Two that I know of are one with "Capella USA"
and "Cheap Trick" printed on; and from the mid 90's, make unknown but stating
"Bun E. Carlos . Cheap Trick" (the maker is probably obscured by the green
tape). In addition, the merchandise stand at Trickfest 3 offered Ltd edition of 25 - packs
of BC-used drumsticks and gloves (I remember passing up being able to buy #1/25 as I was
running short of money!) As far as drumheads, it has been possible at times to purchase
used/signed drumheads via the Fan Club (when offered).

Other Stuff!
Gosh, where to start! Well, I'll just
list as much as I know about (or own myself) and add extra comments where I can. This
stuff isn't in any particular order so you'll just have to plough through I'm afraid! And
my apologies if I appear to "cop out" in some sections... but it's impossible to
even start trying to list certain types of item!
Posters & handbills
- There are many, many posters out there, ranging from record company promo posters to
tour posters to specific venue/show posters. I can't even begin to list these as there are
so many out there... so I won't even try! Same goes for venue handbills.
Magazines - Over the years Cheap
Trick have appeared in so many magazines that I can't even begin to list them all here.
But of particular note are Japanese specials from around 78/79 such as "Music
Life" & "Go!Go!" which devoted whole issues to the band (e.g Music Life
Special Issue - July 1978; Go!Go! Special Issue - July 1979). Another magazine of note
is Rolling Stone # 293 (dated 14 June 79) which pictures Cheap Trick on the cover.
Of interest to collectors might be the UK's "Record Collector" magazine, issue
#137 (from Jan 1991) which features a 6 page article on Cheap Trick. Other than those, the
band have appeared in pretty much every music publication you can name!
(Rolling Stone cover picture - copyright Rolling Stone)
Books - The "Record
Collector" mention above leads me nicely onto books. Many music books feature Cheap
Trick in a small way, but there are a couple of books to note. First is "Reputation
is a Fragile Thing" which was written by Mike Hayes (with Ken Sharp), and Mike also
co-wrote the "Record Collector" article with me. "Reputation..." is a
well researched history of the band and its members through to 1998, and there have been
two editions published. The second book to note is "Guitars of the Stars vol 1"
which, with the aid of many wonderful photographs features much of Rick's guitar
collection to the late 80's. (Those interested in Rick's guitars may wish to read this
review of the "Customised Culture..." exhibit at the Rockford Art Museum in the
Spring of 2002 - rockfordmuseum.htm
which featured 34 of Rick's custom guitars)
Backstage passes - Many different designs exist from the mid 70's to the
present day, both Cheap Trick's passes and those of other bands whom Cheap Trick played or
toured with. Again, too many to even try to list!

Promo pictures & record company bio's
- A promo pack of bio/promo photo exists for pretty much every Cheap Trick album
release, as well as Robin's solo album. And linking in with album releases, there has been
a lot of record company promo items over the years, far more than I know
about. But here's a few that I do know of:- Music for Hangovers promo set (shades,
cocktail shaker, etc); "The Flame" plastic lighter from 1988; Karate jacket and
belt (Budokan) - white Karate jacket with red Japanese writing; and a "surgeons"
type shirt with the CT logo and "Busted" on it. But I'm sure there's far more
than this, let me know!
Pins/Badges - There have been many
badges over the years, from logo badges (black or white) to promo badges for albums such
as 1979's yellow "I thought yellow vinyl was just another Cheap Trick until I
discovered The Budokan"; "If you want me to want you, ASK", New Years Eve
1979; Walmart's badge for the 1997 "Cheap Trick" CD; to 2004's "From
Tokyo to You" DVD button pin. There was also a metal Dream Police shield badge from
around 1979 which has been recreated in 2003. Trickfest 2 in 1998 saw two silver pins on
sale, one for Trickfest and the second was a replica RN guitar pick pin. There have also
been several Cheap Trick related pins released by the Hard Rock Cafe chain, these can be
seen at hardrock.htm

Setlists - Well, literally there could exist setlists for every Cheap
Trick show that's ever taken place! Anyway, setlists (and lyric sheets) are certainly
collectible to many fans, and examples can be found at setlists.htm
Sheet Music - A number of albums
have had sheet music books released - the ones I know of are "At Budokan",
"All Shook Up" and "Lap of Luxury" though I'm sure there are more. In
addition there is a book of "The Best of Cheap Trick" which features 16 songs,
a "Greatest Hits" book, a "5 of the Best" book from Australia,
and "Band Score" book from Japan *new*. There is also sheet music for a number of songs
and again my knowledge is limited. The ones I know of are
"She's Tight", Dream Police, "Ain't That a Shame",
"The Flame", "Don't Be Cruel", "Ghost
Town" *new*, "Can't Stop Falling Into
Love" and "Wherever Would I Be".

and "Greatest Hits" music books

Concert Programmes - There are at
least 9 Cheap Trick tour programmes, with several more Festival programmes where Cheap
Trick were part of the bill. But as far as Cheap Trick specific programmes go, here's what
I know of:-
- Concert in Japan (1978) - the cover is of the "Heaven Tonight" album
- Concert in Japan II (1979) - the cover is of the "Dream Police" album
and included a flexidisk of the band members greeting the Japanese fans
- World Tour (1979) - the cover is black, with a picture of the band and white 6x
logo
- Australia/New Zealand Tour (1979) - black cover with 2x
logo and band photo's, all in silver
- World/Japan Tour (1989) - the cover features a large colour picture of the band
plus a single logo
- Japan Tour (1990) - the cover features a colour picture of the band on top of multiple
logo's
- Japan Tour (1992) - the cover features a large
colour picture of the band plus a single logo
- Japan Tour (1994) - the cover is of the "Woke Up With a Monster" album
- Japan Tour (2001) - the cover is of the "Silver" album
- Japan tour (2006) - the cover is of the "Rockford" album
- Budokan 30th Anniversary show (2008)

Stickers - There are various logo stickers through the years. Also, from
around 1979 there is a yellow shield sticker proclaiming "These premises are
protected by the "Dream Police" Cheap Trick". In 2003-4, stickers have been
available of the "Cheap Trick", "In Color", "Heaven Tonight"
and "Essential" album covers.
Dream Police standups - from the
1979 release of the "Dream Police" albums, I believe there were
two different sizes for record store use. There is a set that stands around 2 feet tall
(pictured), and I believe a set that are around half that size. Probably hard to find a
set of these in mint condition now.

Coffee Mugs - From around 1997 -
white logo on black; black logo on white; and multiple black logo's on a large white mug.
There is also a new, tall white
coffee mug with 6x logo in black, first available in Aug 06.
Fan Club Merchandise - From the late
70's/early 80's there has been a lot of merchandise for sale via the official Fan Club.
From various merchandise order forms I have, I'll list what you could have bought at
certain times of the bands history:-
1980 - All Shook Up t-shirts; 3/4 length baseball jersey; ladies
tank tops; white cotton jogging shorts; pewter pin; set of 4 black & white pictures;
button; bow tie; key chain; logo patch; logo poster; backpack; puzzle; pen; US tour

Other miscellaneous Items
- Fan Club Christmas cards (from the late 90's
onwards)
- Belt buckle
- tea bag (promoting "Live at Budokan"?)
- Cheap Trick ladies panties (featuring 6x logo)
- Watch - from 97/98 there was the checkerboard faced " Anytime" watch; and late
2004 saw two new watches offered for sale via the official website - white logo on black
face and black logo on white face. Limited edition. I've also recently (Aug 05) found
something from around 1990, though I don't know anything of its history. I'd guess its a
promo item, with a red face, skulls replacing the hours from 1-11, and a RN face (like on
late 70's guitar picks) at the 12 o'clock position.
- Viewmaster slides (from around 1981) - featuring Pete Comita
- Patches - round logo; round RN; large 1 or 2x logo to sew onto the back of a denim jacket
(late 70's)
- Keyrings - various, the latest being for the Budokan 30th
Anniversary show in 2008
- Coupon vouchers for Special One (2004) - four different pick shaped coupons, each
featuring a different band member
- Water bottle
- Shoulder bag
- All Shook Up backpack
- Small logo backpack 2003
- Ertl model truck (from around 1998) - boxed, red truck with a picture of the band/logo
on the side
- Woke Up With a Monster CD "Magic Box" a promo item from Warner Bros
- Fan Club Calendars - 1997 through 2000
- US CD "long boxes" - the long boxes that American CD's used to be packaged in.
These exist up to (at least) 1991's "Greatest Hits" release
- Album flats
- Fanzines/newsletters - Various of these exist. From the late 70's
there are around 10-12 "Cheap Trick International" official fan club
newsletters, and since mid 2003 there have been 2-3 newsletters issued by the official
"Trick International" fan service. There are also unofficial newsletters - from
the early-mid 90's there are at least 25 issues of an unofficial, fan produced "Cheap
Trick Zine" from the USA. There is also an unofficial fan produced newsletter in
Japan as well as my own unofficial newsletter here in Europe.
- Promo $100 "bill", rear promoting Lap of Luxury/The Flame and with 6x
logo
- Album postcards - exist for at least "Heaven Tonight", "At
Budokan" and 1997's "Cheap Trick"
- One page "newspaper" from 1979 headed "Daily Trick Vol 1 no
1" and which proclaims "CHEAP TRICK MANIA!! "Live From Budokan"
Explodes Across US!!". I believe this may have been part of the fan club package from
1979
- Busted comic book - a nice promo item from 1990
- Licence plate frame - plastic frame for use in the USA. There have
been two variations sold - the first around 1997/98 was white with some checkerboard and
CT logo in red; the second was on sale from August 2006, and was black with a large CT
logo and "Rockford" both in white.
