Cheap Trick drummer Daxx Nielsen has been manning the kit for the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Famers for 10 years now. Before that he was paying his dues playing 1000's of gigs, touring in vans and drumming for the likes of surf-rock legend Dick Dale and recent Grammy winner Brandi Carlile before back issues forced original Cheap Trick drummer Bun E. Carlos to summons Daxx to fill in for a few encores, which turned into a few shows, which turned into a full time gig.
