Classic rock dominated at Summerfest for its 11th and final night of its 2018 season last night, as Cheap Trick rocked the house for a headlining performance at the BMO Harris Pavilion stage.
If the Summerfest veterans want us to want them, then mission accomplished, because the legendary band put on one of the best performances of the entire year.
Yesterday marked the eighth night ofSummerfest‘s 49th Anniversary celebration. Unlike many other premiere music festivals, Milwaukee’s lakeside festival, Summerfest, brings an especially diverse list of performers to Wisconsin every year. Tonight the World’s Largest Music Festival had some big names in music, including Country Music superstar Luke Bryan, Frankie Ballard, The Decemberists and rock legends, Cheap Trick.

Minutes ago, fans left the historic Wrigley Field, as The Foo Fighters played through the rain to give a killer set to a sold out Chicago crowd. Attributing the Windy City for the launch of his career, Dave Grohl told fans about the first rock show that made him want to be a rock star, just across the street from Wrigley as he saw his openers tonight (Naked Raygun) perform. In addition to Naked Raygun, fans tonight also saw great sets from more of Chicago’s finest, with Cheap Trick and Urge Overkill. It’s not easy to follow Billy Joel (who performed at Wrigley just two nights ago), but boot and all, nothing was stopping Grohl and The Foo Fighters from giving Chicago a hell of a performance tonight!
