I'd rather see Ratt than the Crue anytime.
Dont even have to way on that.!! RATT n ROLL.!! Good health to Steven.
😊❤
Crew is t Ratt was better.
Absolutely.
Back in the day, I saw Ratt 4 times. Each time they killed it. I saw Motley twice. The first time was ok.. The last time when they had Randy Castillo drumming for them was great musically, Vince sucked. Ratt was phenomenal back then. Truly a great arena band.
You will never see Ratt again obviously but seeing Steven and his band is close enough. Motley Crew are bunch of fakes. If Mick Mars says they used tracks then they did. I'm a professional audio engineer and yes I mixed for national acts and even some international acts in my life time. Trax do have uses but when you are faking vocals and instrument parts, punching in keyboards and rhythm guitar when there is no keyboard player on the stage nor rhythm guitarist then that is wrong. ZZ Topp even did this when they were really big. you could here keyboards, Rhythm guitar and sax with only those 3 guys on the stage. They do not do any of that anymore though. They did it because they didn't want to pay 2 or 3 more musicians to play what they recorded in the studio and eliminator and afterburner. Click trax have been used for years simply because it so hard to hear on big stages. just to keep the drummer in time. sometimes the singer and other musicians will want it also in their monitor to keep time. It has uses to save emergencies like illness and that is the only time it should be used is if the show is booked, one the band members is really sick and maybe can't sing and he is one of the main vocalist. In the past they would just cancel and have to pay a huge bill for that. Now they will use prerecorded trax to be able to pull the show off. Big acts are big money. An arena act can make a million. A stadium act can make many millions but if you cancel you are paying every bill associated with that event.
The 1980's was the best decade to be a rock fan. It was the golden age. RATT, Dokken, Crue, Scorps, Priest, Dio, Ozzy, KISS, and the mighty VH with Roth (78-85) was absolute magic. Even the soft rock like Toto, Journey, Tears for Fears, etc was great, amazing music. Great interview. Pearcys a fucking legend. Top tier all day.
what a great decade of ROCK don't forget Y&T still touring
@@rayfabris2512 Y&T kicks complete ass!!
Pearcy is an American treasure. Hearing round n round in 83 at the State Fair riding the Himalaya, the 80s were the Greatest time to be alive. Listening to Ratt today brings me the same Joy i had back then.
I can only imagine (or try to) envision what that must have been like!?. I was only a child in 83', but I remember that ride, going to the fairs, the "rock mirrors" they used to have for prizes and how (at the time) and not having older siblings, I had no idea who they were lol. But I have many fond memories of being a kid back then and I guess just being a kid, though I certainly wish I could have expected the decade in the same way that you had!..
Yes!!!!!!!!!!
Was the Himalaya that ride that went "round & round"? Ratt was great never put out a bad record the 80's were a blast a whole different world than what we're living in now keep rocking!🤘
Which State Fair?
Arkansas State Fair.
Dude. Ratt was so bad ass, way better than a lot of the HAIR bands!
They definitely had a little bit of punk influence just like early motley Crue
Way better than all of them! I think, anyways
Out of the Cellar was flawless.
Some of those tunes were the heaviest from that entire genre.
Ratt was more metal than alot of hair bands. All their songs rocked. Never did a ballad. Closest one was Givin yourself away which kicked ass.
Cuz they aren't a hair band, they're a rock n roll band
Stephen nailed 80's rock in 1 word... "FUN" It was so much f'n fun compared to any music before or after it!!!!
Also, Stephen seems like the most down to earth rockstar and just a real, genuine human being. Ratt & Roll forever! Love you guys!
Ps. Please call Warren 👍
AMEN or LIKEWISE! In my opinion, the 80s WERE, and ALWAYS WILL BE, "THE PINNACLE OF CIVILIZATION!"
Being born in 1980, I was certainly not old enough to experience the culture, music, etc, but regardless it was a fun time to be a kid and I couldn't imagine what growing up in today's world must be like and im glad I came up when I did, though I wish I had been able to experience the decade in my teens or early 20's!. There are a million bands during this decade that I wish I could have seen in their prime and music spanning straight across the board!. There were so many great bands in All genres of music back then that I only dream I could have grown up listening to and experiencing live!..
Definitely NOT better than ANY rock music that came before or after it. 70s hard rock was WAY more mature.
yeah, I gotta say that Invasion tour 1985 show was so much fun.. and they rocked it
Man he's sounding so much better than he has for a lot of years. Good to hear.
Glad to hear Stephen didn’t get all shot up for the cruise. Way to hold the line. Stay healthy man! Legend!
Saw Ratt at the American Rock Festival in 1984 in Michigan! Epic!
Benghazi.
Shot up ?
@@MrN75nokia c19 jab
What i really like about RATT is that, allthough a blues-rock kinda based band, had some elements of Heavy-Metal and at the same time a contemporary sound of that era whilst still distinct and unique. What also made them great where stephens unique voice and the power duo of Robin and Warren.
yeah, Out of the Cellar n Invasion were good, solid albums with groove n hooks with some metal.. their EP was good too!.. I LOVED RATT
Ratt has musicianship. Hairband with poppy success, yes, but they could play their instruments well, unlike a lot of other successful artists. For that, I respect them, even if I may prefer death metal. I own a few of their albums. Warren DeMartini shreds, and shreds with nuance. I believe I've heard the Dorian mode in his solos. It complements blues/pentatonic phrasing with a bit more character and complexity.
@@Synathidy Yes they knew their instruments well. What i like about Warrens playing is how he mixes the bllues/pentatonic scale with mixolydian mode and the minor scale.
The 80's was the best.
Steven Pearcy's awesome 🤘
AMEN or LIKEWISE!
Am sick of hearing about Motley
right? To me, they made 2 good albums in the beginning, then they sucked.. They shouldve stuck with the Shout album image
Facts
Ratt was part of the Golden era of Heavy Metal along with Poison, Motley Crue , Guns & Roses, I'm happy to see him healthy and rocking!
Poison? dude, ur on the wrong channel
Poison blows
I've seen em all, and one concert that really stands out is the 1985 Invasion RATT show. It's in my top 5 shows ever. They rocked and it was so fkng fun!.. Bon Jovi opened on their 7800° album, and believe it or not, they rocked it too.. I'll never forget that show.. St Louis, summer of 1985
I also saw this Ratt tour with Bon Jovi opening in the Fall of 1985 at the Cumberland County Civic Center in Portland, Maine.
Vince Neil and Stephen Pearcy were once known as the Bordello Brothers. Certainly NO friction between those two.
RATT NEEDS TO REFORM WITH MOST OF THE ORIGINAL MEMBERS
Rest in peace Robbin though
its the blotz fault
Dimartini hates touring. Maybe an album would be a nice compromise
My dream ticket is original WASP playing first record, then original Ratt with Carlos playing Robbins parts , then the original Crue headlining!
@@Baldmelon He doesn't need to tour, he was rich before RATT. I would hope one final big show, but I am probably dreaming lol
I agree...it was sooo much fun. I was born in the 70s so I got to enjoy it. Now I am loving all of you touring again. I went to 2 concerts last year and I'm not done. Thank you to all the glam bands (I like glam myself but hair band is fine too) that are giving one last good time! 🤘🤘🤘
I’m a drummer in a few cover bands, and what I always tell them I don’t care what songs you pick but make them from the 80s because they’re gonna go over good and all the clubs and all the bars I’m not even a singer, but I sing round and round by Ratt, because I know that the female crowd will love this song Stephen Pearcy love this dude he’s phenomenal and he has a great voice. He’s a great person.
I am a professional drummer myself and have been since I was 16 and I'm 65 and we play out all the time and in four different states as well. We play a lot of cover material and I also sing but I am not the lead singer and round and round as a great song to do
Can't get the cover bands to do Ratt up here in ND.... c'mon up to the North Country!
Ratt is so awesome, still jam too em to this day! Stephen you're an rad front man makes me proud to be a fan!
fantastic interview and good to see Stephen in such a good mood. Invasion is also for me the album to bring in the desert island!
That's a great pick....vintage, epic tunes. Mine is Kiss Alive or Operation Mindcrime
Ratt is in my opinion definitely in the top 5 bands to come out of the 80s. The music stands the test of time!
Ratt were pretty good too lol
@@Headknocks hahaha I didn’t even notice that. Thanks. (Stupid autocorrect)
Growing up down the street from Stephen was amazing when he 'made it.' I was so blown away that we walked the same high school halls, same music stores and the same park -Presidio. It was a blast.
One of my all-time favorite rock bands from the ‘80’s. So much fun growing up with music like Ratt in the background of my life!
Since vanilli sixx doesn’t play live I bet he didn’t play on the recorded tracks either the poseur. Ratt meanwhile scraped it out legit and still do, with all the pain to show for it, because they didn’t kiss the ring.
You're looking healthy Stephen,Ratt~n~Roll brother
what an amazing guest there is hope yet for small Podcasts
Great to see Stephen still putting stuff out. The real musicians don't stop because they can't make millions anymore... they keep putting stuff out there on their terms. I'd do the same if I was in that position
It’s amazing to see the bands I grew up on still going. Some making major comeback’s
Great interviewer with good questions and timing. 👌🏽🤘🏽
It was everything that Stephen Pearcy said I’m still to this day I love most the music from the 80s and all different platforms
Excellent interview!
Happy to see Steven getting out there before it’s too late ,, Very cool..
loved this interview Stephen seems real nice God Bless❤❤😊
Graduated in 85, without a doubt the best time to grow up… 🤘
In my opinion, the 80s, in general, WERE THE BEST TIMES TO GROW UP!
@t Ava. Right behind ya girl.! 83 for me and it was the best of times for sure.!!❤😊
Damn Steven , you look and sound strong and healthy. Keep rockin Brother
I saw BonJovi /RATT back in the day. Was a great show. RATT was firing on all cylinders. It's great to see Stephen still rocking. Carry on brother !!
This was very cool!
So, RUclips edited Stevens guitar playing?? Or is it the mic.
He's such a cool guy, total old school rocker.
#500 👍.
Great interview
Great chat, Stephan was allowed to speak, rare !
Huge points for the Silverhead T-shirt….
Oh, the 80s The Greatest decade, Whitesnake, Blue Murder, Kiss , FM, Def Leppard, Van Halen, RATT, Vixen , Great interview !!!
Well... say what you want. Im just glad i was able to see RATT four times in my life. Each time pushing myself to the front in general admission. Life was great then. Kinda feel sorry for this new generation that will never get to experience that.
Van Halen will always be my favorite band, but Ratt was definitely in my top 3 if not my 2nd fav. They ABSOLUTELY ROCKED.
In the 80s I was a teen and when I saw the RATT, video where a butler had a blk leather studded bracelet, I had to have one so after working a few odd jobs, I was able to come up with the money to buy one. I still have it!. I just recently attended a ZZ Top concert, & I was talking to a guy while in line to purchase merchandize and he told me that event was very calm with people about our age 53 and no fights just old rockers with battle jackets drinkig a beer & here to have a good time, unlike the newer younger artists that at concerts are lots of fights people taking your shit, etc. I see what you mean! My teen kid, and one in his 20s now they want to see any 80s hair band in concert! But its harder now. Now that most 80s bands hate each other within the band its a shame, and wont play together again since they were and still are the greatest musicians that have ever lived.
Ratt better than Motley Crue
great cd boxset but man reissue that ep thats been out of print forever
by the way, when using zoom get the guest to turn off noise cancellation otherwise you won’t hear the guitar
Cmon guys, get together for one show at the Whisky to celebrate the 40th and be done! Hopefully, it would be a boost for even a small tour. With decent support acts, no doubt this would sell well at mid size venues. 10 dates, all big markets, it would sell out. Ratt, Tesla, Keifer... Yes, I am dreaming, but its not impossible.
Remember driving down the strip in the 80s, but was too young to partake - graduated high school in1988
growin up as a kid, first there was Paul Stanley, then DLR, and then when I saw RATT in 85 Stephen Pearcy was the coolest mthrfkr ever on stage.. He was just cool af to me as an 17 yr old. He was the best frontman to me
Healthier sounding. Good for him!
How do l get 84 or 86 DVD concert of ratt. Anybody know where?
my first concert saw ratt open for billy squier. so ratt is first band i ever saw play live.
Stephen it would be awesome to get the ones you can and get ratt back together and put new music out and hit the road one last time
That song sounded great!
true rock n roll legend
Stephen Pearcy was my new frontman idol in 85. He was just cool af on stage.. No fakery or over the top bullshit; he was just fkng cool. I loved that about him. Paul Stanley n DLR should learn from him
Such a pleasant dude!
Lol at when he was playing guitar😂
Givin yourself away.... Ratt best melodious song ever... Awesome drumming.... Recording sounds super and crispy and bright.... All musicians equally loud and bright....
Absolutely great choice! Nobody rides for free too
One of my favorites. What a killer tune. Never liked the whole ballad shit bit that song is very good.
Co-written by Desmond Child and Diane Warren, 2 of the most gifted songwriters of rock and pop rock, especially the 80s.
Good report, awesome 😎🤘
Hi Stephen see you on the boat!
Stephen then man always and love that shirt
Ratt... My #1 favorite band
Ratt and Hurricane gained back the US rock band pride that time when many UK rock bands topped up
Thanks to Ratt..... I like Motley Crue only for Tommy Lee.... Awesome melodious drummer.....
glad I had just graduated from high school in 83 and boy the next 7 years were a party I don't regret any of it glad I survived it to talk about it I was at the store yesterday and this guy in his 20s had a Iron Maiden shirt I told him I seen them with the SCORPIONS in 82 twice and he was jealous because he hasn't seen them and wants to before they unplug the guitars and Steve Harris's Bass🎸
Ratt was way better then Motley Crue live!
I've seen both multiple times in the 80s..and liked Motley Crue more.
18:09 the question in the title is addressed.
Looking for this! Thankyou!!
How do you get a podcast or a RUclips channel that you can get a hold of 80’s Metal band’s and also wrestling and movie stars from movies and shows back then I’ve been wanting to do this for years but I can’t go live because I don’t have enough subscribers and I don’t think that’s right because I grew up in the late 60’s threw the 80’s I turned a adult but it’s my favorite era of music movies and shows. And the mini skirts stone washed jeans every thing. But I’m really wanting to get a channel to do this with!!!
I can’t hear him playing what is wrong with the sound I can hear him talking but I don’t think he was playing because I cannot hear it but I heard him saying what he was supposed to play.
It's all classic hard rock now
Was waiting on his teeth 2 fall out at some point!! Lol
Is it just me or was Stephen’s guitar clipping out when he was playing his acoustic?
Bobby Blotzer is the most important person that was in Ratt. Or in the the whole world. Just ask him.
the "80s, will never be beat. it was a better time. new look, better inventions, etc. sure they're were bad things also.
If you are good you can make your own videos and place them on youtube and you will gain support. Some have gotten major label deals because of their creativity and talent and instead of a talent scout finding you in a bar it can be as simple as a social media post that they see.
Good for Pearcy and refusing the jab
Stephen is a cool cat. 😊
seems like a very cool guy.
Ratt n Roll ..best times ever
Spot on...the 80's was pure fun...but today, music is about pushing politically agendas - climate change, sexual gender stuff...just crap. Wish I could go back!
I liked RATT more than the Crue. They had many better songs.
new ratt box set coming !!!!!!!!!!!
I will take Ratt and Dokken over Motley Crue every time. In my opinion their albums sound way better than Morley Crue.
Definitely top tier from that era. I might throw in Cinderella.
I thought they were buddies? They were in each other's videos...
Boring same questions "Will you get the original band back together?, How do you write songs? What bands do you listen to today?, Was there any rivalry between bands?, Do you still enjoy playing live?, Any early unreleased music that will eventually come out?, What was the 80's like?
Detonator album was still good. RIP RC RATT N ROLL!!! 🍻🎸🚬
I love ratt play them all the time.
I'll take Ratt over Crue any day!
Pearcy a joy to watch. Nit only was he born to rock, he has a great TV presence. It a crime that Pearcy doesn't have his own reality show
Dang! Stephen wears dentures!
Meth and crack ruined his grill...hes a survivor.
Plus MTV started in the 80's. it was the video revolution!!! Don't forget DISCO.
I grew up in the 80:s.....love everything the scene....STRYPER THE BEST BAND.....but you want hinesty??? CRASHDUET BLOWS AWAY MOST BANDS
Stephen ain't jabbed, thank God!
AMEN.!! Me either..
Weird didn't hear anything about the Mötley beef, you click baited me lol
The comments of Sixx on this situation really made him look like a ass. I mean, it was already out that they did backing tracks on that tour. Soo that's one f*** up. Calling Carmine a washed up drummer. He plays but Nikki Sixx can't. Another f*** up. The situation around MM goes back for years so NS was lying to MM or MM knew the band wanted to replace him. So there was never a friendship how NS wants to claim it. And other musicians who knew them already said that they knew they wanted MM out of the band. And the words of NS saying MM plays the nots wrong. How does NS know that? He can't play....Actually on the albums they should change the bass parts are done by MM and hired help. NS was for the songwriting but with the help from MM.
❤ratt
Best decade Ever..... The Girls and the Music!!! 🤘
And the Blow.!! Toot Toot..😂😊
Godbless Ratt
RATT / turned arenas to rubble
He didn't day anything about Motley Crue.
