  • Look below for the playlist. Very cool concert my wife and I attended this year! 33 years ago we saw Ratt in La Crosse while in college. BTW, happy belated 65th birthday to Stephen Pearcy, born July 3rd. This concert rocked, both figuratively and literally! I hope you enjoy. Even though I did not capture every song, I got most of them from the 2nd row and then right at the stage for the last two songs.

      As for the metal it's broke up into different sub groups.. I listen to quite a bit of modern metal. Metal head to the end.

    I will openly admit, Ratt was never my 'go to' band - but i DID like SP's unique upper range and some of the catchy riffs. Having said that, some of the negative comments on his voice - ummm, the dude is mid 60's!!! Ya OBV haven't seen some of the other 80 bands play lately - KISS, Crew, GnR, SkidRow etc - I thought his voice (albeit not hitting every note) was pretty solid! and hey - no lip syncing - who knew?!
    Guys, this is a small blip in time that we all loved and treasured - so reliving it before our 'golden years' is truly just that ...gold. Enjoy life and the joys of our youth. These guys are aging at the same rate as us! Cheers

    Glad to read through some of the comments and see some positive stuff. So many negative comments on some of these sites about Ratt. What because Warren Demartini is not there. Stephen especially has a right to make a living playing Ratt's songs. They are his as much as anyone else in the band. Now with Bobby playing shows it's even more original. The 2 younger guitarists are solid especially Ziff and they add background vocals. More than anything else they want to be there and play for the fans. They seem like 2 dudes who worshipped Ratt as kids and are proud and so thankful to be in the band. Warren is entitled to be Rich and retired that's all good and these dudes deserve to keep Ratt's legacy going as long as Stephen chooses

    I got to see this show about a mile from my house, live at the little Wisconsin, Waukesha County Fair..I had to be begged to go..But so glad I went.....You think it's easy for a 65yr old guy to sing this type of music all over the place?.. For decades?..Shit I'm 63 and I get tired just walking around Walmart a couple of times....The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac played their pretty music up into their mid 60s but they always sounded great standing still and singing that kind of music..And they are some of my favorite bands...But Steve had some bad years with Ratt probably beginning with Robin passing away, and decades and decades of legal bullshit, and his heart maybe wasn't in it..For a singer that's important...He seemed to transform himself now at 65. Like a fuckin' magic trick...Like a blessing from God..Maybe now he got the right bunch of guys, who ever the hell they are, including Juan, and he can finally pull it together.....I wouldn't change a thing Steve...As much as the other guys, and Carlos were great and shit but...I wouldn't change a fucking thing...God bless you Steve finally.......Not a real real big Ratt or Hair Band fan, but I've been rooting for you for decades.....For the sake of Rock and Roll...I mean Ratt and Roll I guess....frankm63yroldwhitekid

    I saw RATT live twice in the 80s. Was right up on the front rail the entire show back when they allowed that in arenas. Robin Crosby saw that I knew all the words to the songs and tried to get a pick to me a few times. Never got one as they just flew by or someone else snagged it, but he tried. Thanks Robin. RIP Robin.
    I have to say this performance is impressive as heck. The band is tight. They obviously put real effort into getting ready for the shows. They are actually tighter on some songs than they were in the 80s because, well, in the 80s, at times it became obvious that some of the band (actually not Robin) started the after-party a little too early. Slip of the lip is a little rough. But that's a hard one to reproduce live.
    Stephens vocals are pretty impressive in most songs. He knows the words. Sounds pretty good. A little rough on some songs. But darn good on the classics. I'll go see these guys again if they come through where I am.
    A good show. All the songs you loved if you grew up in the 80s a RATT fan. Loved hearing "Way cool jr" in 2nd song of set.

    Funny story.....way back in the day when Ratt just started touring for the first time, there was a write up in the local newspaper about a concert coming up......the band's name was Rattpoison.
    No one had ever heard of the band, and me and my friends stayed home. The next day we heard it was Ratt and Poison that we missed.....

    He came out to the USS Nimitz one year, 05 I think, and I sang Lay It Down with him. When I saw Ratt at Monsters of Rock at Castle Donington in 84 I would have never been able to talk to him.

    THIS VIDEO TOTALLY SERVED OUR PURPOSES !!!! My wife and I have these little get togethers where we put together Rock festivals using these You Tube concerts. Its Labor day and the way this was filmed made us feel like we really were at a rock festival. Loved the still shots of the fair and the staging. I wish more people would do that. Thanks for a great video . You really made out day !!!
