Interesting Juan Croucier Interview

Happy Mother's Day.

Clicking around YouTube last night, I found a Jaun Croucier interview from the Denise Ames show. The video is about a year old, but fills in some holes regarding RATT's history. I've been thinking about RATT a lot lately, especially since the band is gearing up for a tour. The band is one of  my faves and I love seeing them live, so I hope they come around Ohio again soon.

Big news break of all: Chef Raoul is still manning the pans at Columbo's!

Seriously, though, I am waiting to see what secrets and bombs Pearcy dropped since his book was released last week. I tend to think it won't be this civil. Any first week buyers out there?

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there.

Him,

I just popped the new Pearcy book into my Amazon cart. I'll buy it and review it later this week. I've got two books going now I need to finish. I've heard great reviews of Pearcy's book - it will be fun for us to discuss here.

Oh that's right. Stephen wrote a book.

This should be interestizzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...
Sorry, I dozed off.
Having known all the Ratt guys since the club days,
I'm actually surprised Pearcy could READ a book, much less write one.

[Jack T. Ripper]

Half way through Stephens book, so far I love it! Its alot better than Blotzers book and Pearcy has not taken any pop shots at any Ratt members.

This is one of the most hilarious things I've seen in my life, especially those Columbo's commercials, HIM -- actually ALL the commercials.

The contrast between Denise Ames' straight laced appearance and delivery, with that of the majority of her subject matter is uproariously hysterical.

Quick! Somebody drop a hit of acid in this chick's coffee!

p.s. Don't get me wrong. I actually wish there were more "conservative" ladies like this out there that are into our kind of music. UBlew and Pearl Scam led so many astray.

Can't wait for the review Allyson. And thanks for feedback on the book Jack T. Ripper.

You are right about contrasts Metalboy! I wonder if it is a "Hot for Teacher" sorta' thing, or like Tipper playing "F*** A Beast" on a tape deck in her closet?! Al here's the noise from behind the door: "Nooooooow, Tipper, put that back in the lock box."

I have to ask: Ace, did you spend time on The Strip back in the day? You are kinda' vague about your background, but I get the sense that you know a lot about The Strip.

[Metalboy!]

HIM! Ace was in one of THE Greatest of the unsigned bands on The Strip, ACTRESS! He's posted links to several YouTubes of Actress packin' 'em in every night on The Strip. The guy lived it, slept it, dreamt it, and did damn near everything else to it you can do.

And aside from him trying to force feed his EXTREME Right Wing Political views down everyone's throat, he's a sterling guy, hahaha!!! Now, Ace, let's not get too jumpy.

And, HIM... "Nooooooow, Tipper, put that back in the lock box." Hahaha!!! Priceless!

[Him]

I was just trying to give Ace some good-natured ribbing. No offense intended.

So many people on here have deep, deep, backgrounds in metal . . . and I appreciate all the back-stories and 'fly on the wall' tidbits.

Sometimes my wit is more "spork" and less "rapier."
