Ok, So We're Doing This Now

Stephen Pearcy and Juan Croucier are back with a "new breed" of RATT. Looks like those months-old rumors about Warren DeMartini getting canned are true. Or at least truish.

The Blabbermouth article linked below says the band "is planning new tracks for 2019, along with a worldwide tour in support of Out of The Cellar's 30th anniversary."

Pearcy and Croucier will hit the road this summer with RATT(ish).

Um, wasn't the 30th Anniversary of "Out of the Cellar" four years ago? Not so good with the math is this new breed. :)

Coming soon to a bingo hall near you....

At the very least, I hope this will keep Pearcy from releasing anymore of his horrible solo crap.

strange, the dallas show is booked in a venue bigger than the last time ratt rolled through. but the venue’s site still hasn’t announce it. i have to go and check it out, just to see what kind of train wreck this will be.

*which doesn't include Arcade, btw

No Warren, no RATT ... this is nuts. 50 year old guys with impossible ego’s. The fan gets screwed!

Amen Steverox. Even with the classic lineup,Pearcy has been going through the motions since about 1986. Guy was,is,and always will be a narcissistic tool. Warren and Blotzer should grab Carlos Cavaso,Robbie Crane, and the "Jizzster" and call it Rat(t). ( can you imagne how that'd piss off the copyright lawyers?)

AndYeah, I went there. Blotz is a booze swilling loose cannon, but he is a good drummer who wants to get out and play. I'd go see that incarnation again. I wouldn't go see Pearcy and Juan Barishnakov if they were playing for free in my backyard (which they will be more than likely looking to book after about a month of 47 people showing up in 2500 seat halls). Lol

Sinking ships are often filled with rats.

Thing is, Pe(a)rcy Bysshe Shelley was slagging Blotz up and down for taking his rickety roadshow to the hinterlands. DeMartini? Eating a Snickers. Croucier? Just glad he had enough moo-lah for some new head-wraps. About the only one who showed some gratitude (as I have said before) was Cavazo.

To me, it is a bad sign when a hired gun seems more interested in your legacy than you do, when the crazy guy with a MySpace account is the one speaking truth to power, and when you claim through a rictus grin that your best days are in front of you.

All quite sad. But karma has a way of sorting things out. Leader of Mickey Ratt? More like mini-rat (see what I did there?). Top Fuel? More like outta' gas (and there?).

THIS is a farce. The two assclowns who left of their own accord, get desperate for $$ & reunite with the band they left, have 4/5ths of the Atlantic signed lineup, & after a year or so... just get lazy & don't want to tour... The drummer, (who MAY also be an assclown with a big mouth) tries to turn off the TV & get his lazy bandmates to practice & go play some gigs... NOPE! Too much effort. Juan & Stephen have their noses in a baggie of white Peruvian snowflakes. Warren who is the laziest assclown of all... ( and a trust fund baby, funded by the Mars Candy fortune,) & the only other band member besides Blotz, to NOT give us his rights to the name, says, "Well, if you won't play your roles, I'll find someone who will !" And goes off on tour, continues to pay Warren, even though he's contributing nothing, he is the only other WBS shareholder. Other assclowns Pearcy & Croucier do other things but get all butthurt at Blotzer's semi success with a never version, & SUE. Further Retardation occurs until the 2 lazy assclowns that quit decide to fire the star of the band... DiMartini... WTF!

There is only ONE way this can be salvaged. Re-instate Blotz, & hire Marc Torien, who had the lead guitar slot when Warren quit, to play with Dokken, in the early 80's. If not that, Call it a day!

@ACE great to see you back posting - Hope Sin City is treating you well! Great Post!

[Metalboy!]

ACE!!! Thank The Metal Godz you’re back to string it all together for us!

SO absurd these guys could throw it all away like this! What IDIOTS! Or, rather, what a bunch of dirty RATTs!!! Except Cavazo, of course.

Poor Robbin Crosby! You know he’s completely rolling over in his grave!!!
