I read an article not long ago. They all have shit going on. Guess Cartellone is the hardest to get on board just because he'd been playing for Skynyrd and they had a pretty busy schedule. According to Blades, didn't sound like was likely to ever happen. Not because they had issues, but because the schedules don't work.
I don’t know that you can. Tommy is full time with Styx. They are almost continually on the road touring. He doesn’t really have any time for Damn Yankees, sadly.
They were all on board, except Ted didn't want to tour year round. He only wanted to tour summers, because he wanted to hunt during the other seasons. So, all the other guys went back to their other bands.
@sdownin72 if I remember right Jack and Tommy are writing new music all the time according to them and that they have pitched it to their respective bands and its kinda on hold for now
The Yankees aren't complete without Tommy and Michael. And Michael is now looking for a new gig since Lynyrd Skynyrd is finished (Gary Rossington passed away back in March.)

A partial (1/2) Damn Yankees reunion, but still pretty awesome to see. I know Styx tours a lot and they always seem to be out on the road. Tommy Shaw keeps saying that a full Damn Yankees reunion is "highly unlikely," but come on Tommy. The fans would love to see it and Jack and Ted are down for it. I know Michael Cartellone has been the drummer for Skynyrd since 1999 and I'm not sure if he's commented recently about a Damn Yankees tour or not. Come on Tommy Shaw! Get the boys back together again!!
@@immusicmagazine4533 Are you sure it's not 38 Special who is touring with ZZ Top? The two bands sound alike these days, and Special has covered Skynyrd's songs from time to time. And why would Skynyrd continue without Gary Rossington (R.I.P.)? I don't think Rickey Medlocke feels right doing it without ANY original member present. He also has the Blackfoot thing. Maybe it's Blackfoot who's touring with ZZ Top.
Now, if you could have Damn Yankees open for Styx on a tour, that might could happen, but would Tommy be willing to play and sing for three hours each night? And would the guys in Styx get pissed at Tommy for getting paid as both the opener AND the headliner?
I started to agree with johno6590 below, and then I thought - wait a minute. Gillis has been in my top five quitarists of all time since the early 80's. His precision and skill with the tremolo bar are not matched by many. If he is less well known, its just because Night Ranger was not in a league with Led Zeppelin, The Who, Journey, etc when it came to record sales. And I agree that his sliding into Rhoades slot on a moment's notice showed an abundance of talent.
I saw them with bad company twice Damn Yankees opened for them I've never seen so many people leave a concert including myself when Ted was drug off stage still playing, the the bar was raised way to high for bad company to keep up.
Hell Yea finally a classic song done perfectly with the Damn Yankees together again!would like to see these guys back on Tour,great performance with CRAZY UNCLE TED
Gosh, what a great performance! Had no idea they were playing in T.C. For the Cherry Festival! Would’ve loved to seen that. Ted was my introduction to rock concerts back in ‘79; Civic Auditorium in Grand Rapids, Michigan - Wango Tango tour. Never looked back after that! Thank you so much for bringing this to the masses!

I just closed my eyes big smile when I'm in my face and I was just transported back to the 1980s and we live in my awesome teenage years damn what a time it was
Damn Yankees were such a good band, one of the early examples of the "Super Bands" , and yes Brad Gillis is such an underrated player and historical figure, being able to fill in for Randy in Ozzys band, I couldn't imagine what an unpleasant and difficult situation that was, put the guitar playing aside because that's a whole other mountain to climb, but to fill in after a member had passed away, having to deal with a drug addict alcoholic boss, rabid fans who were I'm sure not easy to please, and then to play Randys parts . What a good guy Brad Gillis is. And all these years have never ever heard him bad mouth OZZY or Sharon.
I was fortunate enough to see Damn Yankees with Jackyl as the opening act in Cincinnati. GREAT show......Ted got arrested for shooting a flaming arrow and JJ Dupree of Jackyl got arrested for dropping his pants. Such a Cincinnati thing back then. Sounds like they still have the juice in this video. CHEERS
@slugg666 He had those all in one PJs on. The sleeves were wrapped around his waist and came undone during a guitar solo, and as he kept jamming, they fell to his ankles, and he kept rockin. LOL!🍻
I never heard of this group or Night Ranger before I moved to Las Vegas in 93 Blades is amazing I was working to much anyways I am glad Damn Yankees is back more like you guys metal better together cannot wait to see Yankees in concert.
Saw these guys live back in 2015 where I live. They opened for Rick Springfield. Although they are Night Ranger, they actually did the Damn Yankees song "High Enough" because someone in the audience was wearing a Damn Yankees shirt. What an awesome concert!! Awesome group!!
Sweaty teddy Rolled it The ranger boyz loved Ted jamming with them awesome🙏Ted has guitar skills 🤘 come on he was amboy dukes!!! Damn yankees need to reform that would be astonishing 🤘🙏
What if we love Ted the guitarist and even love Ted the personality but hate the radicalized Ted? The man is crazy but we love him. His political stuff, not so much.
Saw Damn Yankees when they were the opener for Bad Company's Holy Water Tour (without Paul Rogers). They blew Bad Company away. Then a couple of years later , saw Damn Yankees when they were the headliner with Jackyl opening. Had a front row seat.

Gillis is criminally underrated. Replaced Randy Rhoads at a moments notice and killed it. And Uncle Ted is THE MAN.
Bernie Torme actually replaced Randy, which is impossible to do on a moment's notice, Brad had a little more notice and did a great job
Uncle Ted was the man and still is. He can still kill it on that damn guitar . many of your guitar gods look up to Teddy...
Nugent is a child molester. Listen to what Courtney Love says he did to her at 12. If you don’t believe it read his lyrics to Jailbait. If you still don’t believe it look at the teen Ted adopted so he could have sex with her.
Brad Gillis,,, KING of the trem bar !!!
No he’s not, calling musicians underrated is SO overrated these days!! You’re not hipster.

Damn Yankees were such a good band, one of the early examples of the "Super Bands" , and yes Brad Gillis is such an underrated player and historical figure, being able to fill in for Randy in Ozzys band, I couldn't imagine what an unpleasant and difficult situation that was, put the guitar playing aside because that's a whole other mountain to climb, but to fill in after a member had passed away, having to deal with a drug addict alcoholic boss, rabid fans who were I'm sure not easy to please, and then to play Randys parts . What a good guy Brad Gillis is. And all these years have never ever heard him bad mouth OZZY or Sharon.
That made my morning !!!
Thanks for posting.
BAD CO. and Damn Yankees need to do it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
God Damn Amazing! Uncle Ted, you rock! Jack Blades, you're pretty damn good Too! Rock always Damn Yankees!
I was fortunate enough to see Damn Yankees with Jackyl as the opening act in Cincinnati. GREAT show......Ted got arrested for shooting a flaming arrow and JJ Dupree of Jackyl got arrested for dropping his pants. Such a Cincinnati thing back then.
Sounds like they still have the juice in this video.
CHEERS
That's both terrible and AWESOME!
@slugg666
He had those all in one PJs on. The sleeves were wrapped around his waist and came undone during a guitar solo, and as he kept jamming, they fell to his ankles, and he kept rockin. LOL!🍻
The first time i saw them Ted shot Sadam Hussein in the crotch then between the eyes with his bow
I never heard of this group or Night Ranger before I moved to Las Vegas in 93 Blades is amazing I was working to much anyways I am glad Damn Yankees is back more like you guys metal better together cannot wait to see Yankees in concert.
Hell yeah brother!
Jack is one on the coolest in rock and what can ya say about Uncle Ted, always doing Michigan proud.
Saw these guys live back in 2015 where I live. They opened for Rick Springfield. Although they are Night Ranger, they actually did the Damn Yankees song "High Enough" because someone in the audience was wearing a Damn Yankees shirt. What an awesome concert!! Awesome group!!
A full on Damn Yankees reunion tour is something I would definitely pay for.
Great upload! Rock on.
Yesss! Ted you RULE! Awesome teamwork with Brad singin and shreddin w Bad Yankees too 🔥💯🔥
Uncle Ted is and always the best!
These guys are great together....Awesome!! Damn Yankees!!! And Night Ranger!!
But NOT the REAL Yankees without Tommy S. and Michael C..
Sweaty teddy Rolled it The ranger boyz loved Ted jamming with them awesome🙏Ted has guitar skills 🤘 come on he was amboy dukes!!! Damn yankees need to reform that would be astonishing 🤘🙏
Still sound great.... sure don't have music this good anymore.
If your a hater get a life enough with the negativity. Uncle ted is awesome wish Damn Yankees would come back!
😂😂😂😂😂
@stevemorlock5366 what about real men who are turned off by his racist epithets and uneducated stances?
if you are going to ignore his racist epithets and anti semitic comments then you are part of the problem
What if we love Ted the guitarist and even love Ted the personality but hate the radicalized Ted? The man is crazy but we love him. His political stuff, not so much.
I don't think we will ever see Dam Yankees re unite ever, sadly. Tommy Shaw of Styx has been too busy touring the last 25 years.
Saw Damn Yankees when they were the opener for Bad Company's Holy Water Tour (without Paul Rogers). They blew Bad Company away. Then a couple of years later , saw Damn Yankees when they were the headliner with Jackyl opening. Had a front row seat.
Saw that show and tour bad co sucked without Paul Rodgers rock on Ted a legend
