Don't know any of these bands. Any suggestion? Should I skip the whole thing?
Assuming you actually like Cake, the line up is stellar. Detroit Cobras might be worth the price of admission alone, and of course Cheap Trick is, um, Cheap Trick. One of the biggest American bands of the late '70s and early 80's, beloved by everyone from Steve Albini to our very own Bags. You must have heard "I Want You To Want Me", right? Anyway, should be lots of fun if you enjoy Cake.
P.S. "Live at Budokan" is the last word in power pop.
