This show is actually available on You Tube (audio only) in terrible quality (wouldn't even want to know the bit rate on that). I know flac won't be too much better, but I'll know it is the best that's available . Any help would be much appreciated .

CHEAP TRICK - "Bun E.'s Basement Bootlegs Vol. 4 - Cheeseland 1976"
November 1976
Excellent Soundboard Recording

Notes: simply a mind blowing listening experience for Cheap Trick fans, an early version of "I Want You To Want Me" and a load of unreleased never-before-heard tracks. A lot of talking between songs which is a great insight, but you can tell it's a small place ;)

01 I Want You To Want Me 3:01
02 Do You Believe Me 5:41
03 Fool 8:44
04 Taxman 6:06
05 High Roller 3:14
06 Turkey 5:22
07 Lovin' Money 4:31
08 Younger Girls 3:04
09 Henry 9:01
10 Oh Boy 3:47
11 Girls On Fire 8:02
12 Down Down 5:12

BootlegZone Comments:
This was volume 4 of this excellent series and became first available in August of 2002. "Cheeseland '76" was the bonus CD paired with the "Semi Acoustical" CD.
This must have been recorded in December of 1976 as Rick talks how he's been recycling the line "Today being Thanksgiving" for the past "week and a half". Cute how the song titles were sloppily shortened in an homage to the vinyl age of 70's bootlegs.

Rarebird says:
Bun E.’s Basement Bootlegs were CD’s sold through Cheap Trick’s official website and fan club. They contained previously unreleased Cheap Trick recordings from the band’s archives, compiled by drummer Bun E. Carlos. There were four separate volumes issued between the years 2000 and 2002. Each one was limited to 1,000 copies. Each CD was packaged in a plain white cardboard sleeve with a stamped illustration of the drummer’s face and his hand-autographed initials. The discs were numbered using black marker. Each disc had a different theme to classify the types of tracks included on it.
Cheeseland ’76, contains 12 live tracks recorded the year before the release of Cheap Trick’s 1977 debut album. The band may or may not have been aware of the growing punk rock movement that was happening at that time, but this disc is as good a document as any from that pivotal moment in music history. The not-yet-famous quartet cheerfully indulged in wild electric jams that could make Neil Young and Crazy Horse jealous. It was certainly brazen for Nielsen to introduce a song called “Taxman” as if it was a familiar Beatles cover, when the band was actually playing a Cheap Trick original of the same name (for obvious reasons, that song was retitled “Taxman Mr. Thief” on the debut album). Some of the other songs performed here also turned up on Cheap Trick’s studio albums, while others did not quite make the cut (“Lovin’ Money” was destined to be an outtake from the first album; an instrumental version of “Oh Boy” would be used as the B-side for the studio single of “I Want You To Want Me”). The set includes heavy-rocking early versions of “I Want You To Want Me” and “Downed” (titled “Down Down” here), and a version of “High Roller” that is marginally different than the studio version. Their cover of John Lennon’s “Cold Turkey” seems more restrained at first than some of the band’s later renditions of the song, until it faithfully climaxes with the same Plastic Ono-style screaming as Lennon’s original. “Girls On Fire”, written by Bun E., sounds like a new wave song just ahead of its time, except that most new wave songs weren’t nearly as long. Cheeseland ’76 is the exciting sound of a still-hungry rock and roll band sowing their wild musical oats, before they were refined by the machinery of the record industry.

CHEAP TRICK IN LONDON – JUNE 2001
Cheap Trick came into London following 5 shows in Germany during the preceding week (set lists for those and the Dublin show hopefully to be added to this review within a few days). The German shows were in different cities, though the setlists changed quite a bit each night as the band reacquainted themselves with certain songs for the London "album" shows.
The three nights at London’s intimate "Garage" venue at Highbury were billed as being "Songs from…" the first three albums, along the lines of the album shows in various US locations during 98/99. As it turned out, the band played the whole of their debut album on night #1, the whole of In Color on night #2, and the whole of Heaven Tonight on night #3!
The stir about the London "album shows" spread far and wide, with fans coming to London from all over England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. And to make this an international affair (as many of the album shows in the US were), visitors travelled to London from Holland, France, Sweden, Spain, Germany, Japan and from various parts of the USA (and there may have been fans from one or two other countries too…). I went down to London two days before the shows, to meet up with some of the people from overseas, and the morning/early afternoon of each show day saw my going sightseeing with some of them.

Monday 11 June:
Cheap Trick came on at 9.35pm to a venue-filling crowd approaching 500 enthusiastic souls!
Tuesday 12 June:
Cheap Trick took the stage at 9.30, to another vociferous crowd, many of whom attended all 3 nights. Apparently Adrian Smith from Iron Maiden was amongst the fans for the show.
Wednesday 13 June:
Cheap Trick were a little late, just after 9.35pm, and proceeded to play what I heard many fans later describe as one of the best shows they’d ever seen…

Rolling Stone Concert Review:
To fully appreciate the irony of Cheap Trick commemorating the twentieth anniversary of their 1978 breakthrough album Live at Budokan by performing every song from the original set-list in the original order, consider the band's smarter-than-the-average-Boomer-act business strategy of the last few years. While their contemporaries like Foreigner, Peter Frampton, and REO Speedwagon pooled their resources and hit the sheds and amusement parks to perform chestnuts for the nostalgic, Cheap Trick played arenas opening for Stone Temple Pilots and won new fans the old-fashioned way: by playing the underdog and kicking the headliner's ass. With a Steve Albini produced Sub-Pop single and a critically well-received new album to promote (last year's excellent Cheap Trick), the Chicago quartet seemed hell-bent on tackling the future head-on.
Well, forget all about that, because now the Trick has taken a solid cue from Kiss and Fleetwood Mac and embraced nostalgia with a big shit eating grin. The band is re-creating its Budokan-era show in eight cities to promote the release of an extended At Budokan: The Complete Concert (April 28), and the shtick will continue later this year with similar concerts celebrating the reissue of the first three albums. So much for moving forward ... at least for the rest of 1998. These shows actually mark the second time Budokan has kicked the band back a step. When the original album catapulted from being a Japan-only release to an American smash, the band had to postpone its fourth studio album, relearn all their old song arrangements and retrieve "I Want You to Want Me" from the rubbish heap. Dream Police would have to wait.
But enough grumbling. The original At Budokan went through the roof because it showcased Cheap Trick as one of the best live bands of its era, and tonight's show (a benefit for VH-1's "Save the Music" campaign promoting music education) proved that it still has the goods in spades. For all of the gimmickry (best epitomized by Rick Nielson's pick showers and trademark outlandish guitars, such as the quintuple-neck checkered monster he brandished for "Surrender"), Cheap Trick live is uniformly tight, as blistering and raw as it is cunningly melodic. Twelve-string bassist Tom Petersson and drummer Bun E. Carlos proved as potent and inventive a rhythm section as the Who's John Entwistle and Keith Moon, while Nielson's razor-sharp leads cut deeper than his over-the-top posturing. The real standout, however, was golden-maned Robin Zander, resplendent in a purple velvet suit and singing like a fallen teen angel in heat -- his twin crowning achievements being his high lead harmony on "Oh Caroline" and menacing, Johnny Rottenish snarl through the closing "Clock Strikes Ten."
"Surrender," arguably Cheap Trick's finest song, received the best reaction of the evening, although the triple-guitar rave-up during "Need Your Love" and three-part harmonies during the acoustically re-arranged "Oh Caroline" (punctuated by Nielson's quick guitar quote from the Yardbirds' "Heart Full of Soul") provided the most musically transcendent moments. Most fun was the encore's "Ain't That a Shame," featuring a walk-on by show opener (and one-time Trick producer) Todd Rundgren. Surprisingly, "I Want You to Want Me" came and went without much of a fuss. Indeed, the crowd was no match for the screaming Tokyo audience which helped make At Budokan such a blast. No doubt they were still miffed at the New York City Parks Department's eleventh-hour decree that the free show had to be moved from Central Park to the 2,000-capacity Roseland for reasons of "public safety." "Thank you for inviting us to Central Park," cracked Nielson at the beginning of the show. "Thank you, I'm Garth Brooks," joked Rundgren at the end, kicking the horse one last time for good measure.

CHEAP TRICK - "Night At The Roxy"
The Roxy, Hollywood, California
April 27th, 1998
Excellent Soundboard Recording

Notes: totally a kick-ass performance, which for Cheap Trick that's a daily occurance. Probably the best version you're likely to hear of "Can't Hold On", about as close to power-blues as the band gets to. By the time they play this song Robin's voice is soaring, absolutely awesome! And what can you say about Bun E. Carlos, the solid backbeat of this band that is simply indespensible to the true Cheap Trick sound. Accept no substitutes!
In October 2007 the Illinois Senate passed a resolution designating April 1 as Cheap Trick Day in the state.
