Interesting. If I do a part 2 on Cheap Trick I will have to go through all these. Tentatively it's called Too Dumb to Quit and this would be its cover

I saw them once without Tom, briefly. 1985 at a local amusement park, at which I was employed. It began to rain so I think they played four songs before the concert was cancelled. Jon Brandt was on bass.
I have seen them four times since then and Tom was back in the band and then the last show, Bun E. was not in the band.
I’ll look for ticket stubs later.
