Jannus Live Presents Cheap Trick’s Dream Police.

The doors open Saturday, December 31, 2011, for a concert at St Pete’s Jannus Live with Cheap Trick’s Dream Police.

New Year’s Eve is about spectacle — and downtown St. Pete just got a lot more spectacular! Jannus Live is the place to be to bring in a rockin’ 2012. Cheap Trick will perform a lavish production of their classic Dream Police album — plus all their hits including “I Want You to Want Me,” “Surrender,” “The Flame” and others — accompanied by an 18-piece orchestra and choir, situated above the stage.

Tickets for Cheap Trick’s Dream Police are on sale at Ticketmaster, jannuslive.com or at Jannus Live’s ticket outlet at Detroit Liquors on Central Avenue in St. Petersburg. Early bird tickets are $100 — includes all you can drink — for a limited time only.

“This show is as great as The Who performing Tommy,” enthused Eddie Trunk of VH1’s That Metal Show. “We’re barely into the second month of 2011 and I’ve already seen a show that will be tough to beat as the best show of the year,” said Ken Sumka of Chicago’s 93XRT.

Cheap Trick’s Dream Police, which earlier this year enjoyed a sellout run of dates in the Midwest and at The Greek in Los Angeles, will require Jannus Live to reconfigure its already-expansive stage to accommodate the band’s truckloads of sound, lights and effects. The result will be a multi-sensory spectacle.
