Brad M. Carlson was born on this date in Rockford in 1951, but you probably know him better as Bun E. Carlos, the drummer for Cheap Trick. He's easily one of the best drummers ever. As of 2010, Carlos is no longer the touring drummer for Cheap Trick, but he remains a member of the band. He also lends his talent to Tinted Windows, a super group with Taylor Hanson and James Iha.
Here's Cheap Trick playing live in 1980.
Carlos performs a clinic at the 20th annual Chicago Drum Show in 2010.
This is just an ad for Target, but we dig it. Carlos plays drums with... is that Torry Castellanos from The Donnas?
