This has been some year for the classic rock band Cheap Trick, known for hits including “Dream Police” and “I Want You to Want Me.” Earlier this year, the band members narrowly escaped injury when they left a stage in Ottawa, Canada, just moments before it collapsed during a wind gust that was reportedly more than 90 mph. The band has been lobbying Congress to enact regulations to prevent such collapses and also has turned to its own music venue visions. The band has just announced it will undertake a huge project in a space members see as “the future Music Row in Chicago” with a one-of-a-kind eatery, unique musical instrument museum, radio station, performance space and more. Whatever shape it takes, it seems decor won’t be a problem.

“Rick [Nielsen] had 250 guitars, but 47 of them were crushed in Ottawa. We’re working on restoration and we’re still recovering from that,” David Frey, the band’s manager, told the Chicago Sun-Times. “His guitar collection is unique as is Bun E. [Carlos’ drum collection]. He has parade drums from the 1800s. We’d maybe hang those from the ceiling, we have a lot of ideas.”
