I met KK while working at the Good Earth restaurant in Larkspur… 1988?? Asked for his autograph, got it, still have it… and he was super cool! Thanks Kelly!!!
I was at that show he’s talking about on tour with Sammy Hagar, smuggled a camera in and I’ve still got the pictures with his drums to the side and Hagar’s red Trans Am on stage… I was 19 and those days, with that music were like no other!!! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I was at that show too. I was still in high school and had no plans to go but my girlfriend's mom, who was driving us up there, offered for me to go and then went and bought a ticket off a scalper so I could get in. How cool is that? We were maybe 14 of 15 at the time. Also, I'm remembering my own mom drove me and a friend to see AC/DC - For Those About To Rock tour and waited in the car until it was over. We were in the 6th grade and we thought we were so cool, when in actuality, it was our Moms who were cool.
4 years ago, I brought my 7 year old son to a NR concert and we were front row. As Brad came down in front of us, he saw my son air guitaring, rockin’ out. He took my son up on stage with him and finished out the song with him up there. Never expected that! Kelly threw a stick to him a few months ago after their show. Great guys. Great music.
These guys are the real deal. I took my daughter to see them in 2019. It was her first concert. She was 12 years old. She loved it. They put on a hell of a show.
Yes, Jeff Watson is awesome!!! Love his style and playing. When they first started playing Don't tell me you love me on MTV, we would always jump up and crank it to 11. When we saw those railroad tracks appear on the screen, we knew it was time to rock! Such a awesome tune. Man I wish I could go back to the early 80's, and do it all over again!!!! There will never be another decade of fresh new music like there was in the 70's and 80's, never!!!!!
Yep. My favorites in N-R and Jeff Watson and Kelly Keagy. What incredible musicians. I wish Jeff was still in the band. But I get it. Stuff happens, and life happens. Doesn't always work the way you want it to.
I know it sounds like nostalgia, but they haven't been the same band since. Now they sound like Aerosmith.. I like Aerosmith, but I would much rather they sounding like Night ranger.
Back in Nov. '79, I saw Night Ranger open for Ian Hunter in SF at a place called The Old Waldorf, but they were called 'Stereo', then in Sept of '80, I saw them again opening for Gamma at the same venue, this time they were 'Ranger'. I know this because I have it written down in my old concert logs...I wrote Ranger (aka Stereo)!
Saw them in February at a medium sized venue in Green Bay (WI) and man...they rocked as hard as they ever have...100% effort and energy...it was a fantastic show
Night Ranger is one of my all-time favorite bands. On my Top 10 list for sure. Maybe even Top 5. And Kelly Keagy is one of my all-time favorite musicians. One of the all-time great singing drummers. So musical. So melodic. But the guys also just flat-out rock. Killer twin-guitar attack rock band, with 2 great lead singers.... on bass and drums. Rare. And this is a great upload!
@@jimmyz2098 actually that album is one of the greats of that era. As for dual lead bands, the two of em were so different in styles that most of the time you tell if it was Watson or gillis playing. This boy needs to rock is another killer song.
Great interview, just saw these guys for the 3rd time a couple weeks ago in Norman,OK. Always a great show & like Jack Blades says “ they’re just having fun, it’s the best thing to have “! Come back soon guys. Thanks
Surprising that doesn’t get talked about more ! What he pulled off on short notice was unreal ! Was at the first Oakland show after RR passing ! Brad killed it !
I remember buying Big Life in 87 on cassette as a kid and digging it. Musician wise they were way above most of the glam metal of the time although I am a grunge guy really.
Underrated singer, drummer and songwriter. "Dawn Patrol" remains one of the greatest debut albums ever. NR have their own sound. Great band that I unfortunately never had the chance to see live.
@@Chris24Adam well said! I agree though. I think a lot of 80’s rock bands aren’t fond of the grunge era because it essentially replaced anything 80’s related overnight. A lot of those bands went from stadium shows to theatre/clubs immediately
BTW, the first single - and The Ballad the record company asked for - off that record was “I Did It For Love”. The record company hyped that release for weeks and weeks before it was announced. They would send my record store a sheet of paper that looked like a newspaper clipping headline “I Did It For Love”… with no other details or explanation. After a few weeks, it was suspense: “WHO did WHAT for love????”. Then they shipped the single and album. And that album just RIPS. My fave NR album, and that’s saying something!
I thought he was going to talk about Nirvana watching them from the side of the stage. I misread it. He seems like a really cool, down to earth dude. I always saw Night Ranger as a bridge between REO, Journey, Boston and the Crue, Ratt etc.
That’s crazy you say that… I took my kids to their first concert 2009. It was The Tubes, Foo, ZZTop. And although, the whole time when FF were onstage, Gene Simmons sat on a speaker right behind Taylor Hawkins drum kit. When The Tubes were onstage, I noticed three guys standing right off the side of the stage, watching intently and after every song, clapped, very serious. It was really cool to see and I fought with myself to not videotape or take a picture. Even though it was Dave, Pat, and Taylor. I wanted to remember it how I remember it. Now, I so wish I had. It was awesome.
So they had to scrap the original Dawn Patrol cover saying 'Ranger' now I'm curious did they have a logo that was just half of the Night Ranger logo or just had 'Ranger' in some plain typeface.
The power of a big-time hit single in the early '80s.. they rode sister Christian all the way into pretty much a lifelong occupation in music.. that would never happen today.
You are exactly right. Back then the song of the summer would last 20 years. Now there are 10 songs of the summer and you hear them 8 months later and think to yourself I remember that song. But I could see millennials and generation Y not understanding. The entertainment industry as a whole is a completely different animal now compared to Is 30 or 40 years ago
Love this dude. I'll never understand how he can sing like that while playing like that. These guys still crush it on stage. They're a great band. Nirvana gets more credit than is deserved. There several better bands from that era. For some reason Nirvana was given the mantle as the one and only. Alice in Chains, for the win
Couldn't agree more. Nirvana is one of the most overrated bands in history. The great bands from that era were AIC, STP, and Soundgarden. I think Pearl Jam is overrated too.
@@fivestring65ify we could totally be friends. I'm 100% on board with your comment. Freakin love STP, too. And soundgarden. Dave Grohl is a great talent and a super nice dude and the ultimate ambassador for rock n roll and the fans. he totally gets it. So I have a ton of respect for him, but I never understood nirvana and I never got the foo fighters, either. I guess I'm just old.
Grunge doesn't suck. You should be able to appreciate both. I have friends that pigeon hole themselves into only.listening to one type of music or one genre of rock. A person loses out when they do that. I was raised by my parents on classic rock. To me, Led Zeppelin is the greatest band ever. Then I listened to alot of 80s. Loved alot but didn't think it was all grand. Night Ranger were great. I loved Brad Gillis and especially Jack Blades. Saw Dokken. Saw LA Guns. Saw KIX live and they were great. They weren't as popular as some of the other hair bands, but they were great live. Tesla were phenomenal. I liked alot of other great bands that started in the 80s that you probably never touched or thought of. Most are still around today in some form. Pixies. Soul Asylum were epic. The Replacements. Dinosaur Jr, Husker DU. Grunge was awesome. You can't tell me you didn't like any Nirvana? Pearl Jam. Soundgarden with the now deceased Chris Cornell? He had the voice of a generation. It gave birth to the Foo Fighters. One of the very finest and talented bands of the past 25 yrs, and one of my all time favorites
@@tttarms1970 If you say so.......I guess Grunge bands have all sucked themselves into the Hall of Fame and sold more albums than Night Ranger ever thought about selling.
@@sdc7823 that hall of fame has no credibility what so ever....when you induct...public enemy donna summer and all the other shit....and thin lizzy is still not I. There?? So your comment means shot, and by the way selling more does not mean your better. Like metallica being the "best" metal band out there.... not even fucking close...
Kelly and Brad view Nirvana differently. Kelly seems to have enjoyed it. Brad on the other hand felt it was depressing. I agree with Brad, I like upbeat music that makes me feel better not down in the dumps.
People quit going to shows and buying cds because they grew up, had kids etc. The little brothers chose grunge as their identity. Let's face it, by 89-91, there was cheezy LA shit coming out
It's so hard for fans of metal, hard rock and hair bands to admit that that genre imploded on itself; it had been dead and bloated for at least a couple years by the time Nirvana hit.
I saw Brad Gillis at the Meadowlands when he finished out Ozzy's Diary of a Madman tour. Unfortunately it was because Randy Rhoads had died. RIP Randy.
Met him at record store in Burbank so I went and bought Dawn Patrol cd for him to sign for me and he wrote. "Thanks for 3 1/2 cents"...wished I never met him.
He was the other guitar player opposite Brad Gillis. Check out some of the 80's and early 90's albums. Very good. Beck took his place. He used to play for Winger.
Although I disagree with Kelly because alternative and grunge sucked! I’m so glad that night ranger never changed into that style they kept who they were and they’re all for the better because of it!,… And the band played on!
Sure it does - Nirvana songs are still played regularly on rock radio and they're still popular with young rock fans in their teens and early-to-mid 20's (the small percentage that still like rock, that is).
Never ever liked Nirvana. Really don't like Night Ranger that much either but I did take the time recently to watch a live show on YT. Think it was at Sea World. It was good. I was surprised. Not one for the drum kit to be to the side but hey be you. Just like Robert Sweet. I usually don't take the time to leave somewhat negative comments but today is an exception. Think because of my massive dislike for Nirvana. I can't play anything & I could probably be better. It's just crap.
I never liked Night Ranger. People call 80s rock cheesy and often It's unfair, but Night Ranger is effing CHEESY. All of their songs are in a major key, their stage moves are goofy, their lyrics are superficial... just nope. That being said: Kelly Keagy seems like a really likable, positive dude.
I hate Night Ranger and pretty much all the hair bands. I was born in 1963 but I had always listened to older music. I thought the whole spandex and big hair thing was awful.

"Don't Tell Me You Love Me", and "Night Ranger," and "You Can Still Rock in America" are simply epic rock songs. Tasty rock perfection!
Any guitarist that hasn't heard You Can Still Rock In America needs to check it out.
As a teen in the '80s, that guitar solo almost killed us.
Watson and Gillis absolutely killed it
This Boy Needs to Rock on 7 Wishes is even better.
Great drummer, great singer, great performer, great writer, great guy. Kelly is the real deal!
I met KK while working at the Good Earth restaurant in Larkspur… 1988?? Asked for his autograph, got it, still have it… and he was super cool! Thanks Kelly!!!
Met Night Ranger back stage of a ZZ top show in 82-83 they opened. All super cool and this dude was was awesome!
Kelly is crazy talented and also super humble and a really nice guy!
I was at that show he’s talking about on tour with Sammy Hagar, smuggled a camera in and I’ve still got the pictures with his drums to the side and Hagar’s red Trans Am on stage… I was 19 and those days, with that music were like no other!!!

another soundtrack of my teens. these guy's had it all; vocals, powerful guitars and just enough keyboards. love them
One of my all time favorite bands.
Yes great band I sure miss the MTV days 😩🤘🔥🎸
you can still rock in America still is true today, forty years later.
I saw them on Dawn Patrol tour. They were so young and hungry....excellent!!!
One of the most talented drummers ever.

this band still rocks every night, I agree.
I'm glad Night Ranger is still together after all these years,I seen them at the New York State Fair in 2014.
I saw them open for Kiss on the Creatures of the Night tour (1982). Night Ranger are a great band and I'm still a fan.
I saw them In 85 Mountain Air show. With Katrina and the waves, And Foreigner( Keagy is a great singer) but Lou Gramm is one of my all time favs.
Such a great underrated band. I'd love an interview with Jeff Watson and Fitz..
Yes, Jeff Watson is awesome!!! Love his style and playing. When they first started playing Don't tell me you love me on MTV, we would always jump up and crank it to 11.

Been a fan since there beginning, really like there new stuff, comfort me , truth, just amazing music 🎵
I like this guy. Just saw him in Helena, MT on his 70th birthday. Great fucking band. Very impressive.
My first concert was Night Ranger - Dawn Patrol
Mine too had to dig for a day due to a blizzard but made it in time. They were awesome.
From Dawn Patrol on I was a huge Night Ranger fan!
Love this channel
First concert Night Ranger
Imagine being able to say Night Ranger was named after you, a guy off the streets that attended all your gigs, wow
Yep, that's what I thought too. Was surprised no one else commented about that.
I love Night Ranger!!
Great singer . Miss this band.

Everyone knew he stepped up big time.

Anyone know the song at 0:39?

Wasn't that Dawn Patrol?
He hasn't aged since 1983.
What was the point of the keyboard player's surgeon getup?
Night Ranger was never Heavy Metal, they were hard rock pop like Cutting Crew, Honeymoon Suite, Boston, April Wine, etc...very good band.
He was always 50.
Never throw your fans a curveball.
Met him at record store in Burbank so I went and bought Dawn Patrol cd for him to sign for me and he wrote. "Thanks for 3 1/2 cents"...wished I never met him.
"Mister" Christian himself! 😄 Man, Sister Christian was bigger than life. Kelly could have just retired after he wrote that song if he wanted to.
“Hey everyone, let’s rock shall we.” He reminds me of Will Ferrell playing a dad trying to be cool for for his son’s back yard party.
You can still rock in America, but for how much longer? Things aint looking good.
He could be Mickey Curry’s long lost brother. (Bryan Adams drummer) Lol
This band was full of great musicians. They would have been perfect for Van Halen on the 1984 tour.
I just want to know, has anyone ever seen Alan Fitzgerald without his sunglasses on????? Anybody?????
awesome underrated drummer. just because they sang sappy songs Iike sister Christian doesn't mean they can't rock
IN WHAT WORLD WAS NIGHT RANGER METAL ?
cool band but in no way metal, even back then.
Seriously. Commercial hard rock, but definitely not metal.
And night ranger is a live band. Dont think studio does them justice....
He kinda has a resemblance to Will Ferrell
Still miss Tom Watson...
He was the other guitar player opposite Brad Gillis. Check out some of the 80's and early 90's albums. Very good. Beck took his place. He used to play for Winger.
Kurt Cobain said bands like Loverboy and Night Ranger ruined Rock n Roll. Yet Loverboy and Night Ranger are still around , what happened to GRUNGE ?
It died when Kurt died.
Actually MTV killed eveyyhing . They just used grunge as a weapon.
Drug usage aside these guys were awesome.
Not only Chad Smith that looks like Will Ferrell heh
I have no opinion of Night Ranger, but featuring them on an 80s metal channel is questionable.
I liked Sister Christian until I found out what it was about. Little creepy for me.
How funny. I love all the songs, Sister Christian is not high on the list at all
Although I disagree with Kelly because alternative and grunge sucked! I’m so glad that night ranger never changed into that style they kept who they were and they’re all for the better because of it!,… And the band played on!
