    How about some side stage views or sound check or perhaps your view of the crowd. Loving the content man, thank you so much!!

    Dude- thanks for doing these videos. As a life-long fan and having met you a few times over the years, it's so damn cool to see how down to earth you are. Keep on keepin' on, man.

    5:55 - My heart aches with shared nostalgia that you got to stand on your old street, and be flooded with so many memories. GOOD ones, I hope! Happy that she let you in, and that's awesome that she & her hubby came to the show. Very cool!

    Thanks for doing it these ...P.S. you shouldn't be opening for the other bands on this tour. You are one of very few bands who still sound great today. The tour the world needs:. Poison, Skid Row, Stryper.

    Ive never been there, but ive done some cool trips to the Poconos on the motorcycle, then went up into N.Y then circled back down through N.J back to the Poconos while i was there, also just so happened to be a Nascar race at the Tricky Triangle, so i checked that out before i rode all the back to Detroit. Some really beautiful riding in Pennsylvania, cool tourist stuff, short scenic train rides and stuff, lol.

      I've rode through Hagerstown Maryland, stopped at a Sheetz gas station (first time I ever been to one) and a RoyRoger's hamburgers (first time as well), anyway, that's kinda close to Mechanicsburg PA. Dig the videos, rock on

    Bobby! I understand about not encroaching on the rest of the band. It's still so great to see Bobby. I always assumed he was the quiet one from the band. Your wife is amazing. I understand not wanting to be on camera... I'm the same! I enjoyed seeing where you grew up. Not much different from my state. Beautiful there, too. We hope to see more paranormal vlogs. Safe travels to you and the rest of the band.

    I like to watch 'a day in the life' type docs and videos. I think people love to see that you are a real person who does the same things us normies do. The production on these is really good.

      I absolutely love this!! He seems to really appreciate where he’s from, the simple things in life that he never lost because he’s in one of my favorite bands…which Poison was the first band I ever saw when they opened up for David Lee Roth on his Skyscraper Tour. Got a Poison T too!!🤘🏻Next time your in Springfield Massachusetts, RR, take a tour of the Indian Motorcycle Factory… if you haven’t already. Be safe & God Bless to You & your Family.

    Serious question….if you could go back in time and stand in that driveway with 22 year old RR, could you ever imagine that 38 years later you would still be playing to 30K people just 20 mins down the road? Amazing! My 14 year old son and I had a great time at the show. It warmed my heart looking over at him seeing raise his hands in the air clapping along to Nothing But A Good Time…..thanks for the memories! Also, if I may, it literally, and I mean LITERALLY brought a smile to my face seeing Deuce in this video…..amazing musician and, even more so, human being!

    I've seen plenty of the "backstage goings-on" so to see what you do outside of the venue while on tour is actually very interesting. As a kid, I always wondered if band members walked through the cities they stopped in and, if so, what they did other than soundcheck and meet n greets. This is COOL! See you in AZ!

    Great videos. Can't really think of anything to make them better. I was at the Hershey show. It was awesome. A fan since 1986 (age9) and always wanted to go to the show. Tried to talk my parents into letting me go. I used to play the song let me go to the show over and over again. My father used to say they have other songs. It never worked lol. It was the concert of my dreams and loved every minute.

    Rikki-These are great videos. I am a new subscriber. A lot of fun to watch where you go, who you ride with and let's be honest you are making new friends along the way in all these cities.
    What I would like to see is maybe more footage of all those buses that you feature in your videos.
    Which buses do what, how far they travel, the people driving those buses are usually under appreciated, etc..
    Or you could try to feature the people behind the scenes who set up the wardrobe cases, the catering, the travel arrangements and so much more behind the scenes that fans have no idea takes place.
    Keep up the great work!

    I did not know you were that big a fan of motorcycling. I mean there's ppl who do it just bcz they have the disposable money. But you seem to thoroughly enjoy it. I once enjoyed the adventures it brought, myself. Ever come back to Pearl River Resort in Mississippi, let's ride! Enjoyed your show this last 4th July weekend. During "Ride the Wind" Bret pointed at me and goes, "I know you know what I'm talking bout!" LOL Poison''s fan appreciation is top notch! Thx for the memories.

    Well Rikki...you always come across as a really nice humble guy....its very refreshing when your in an industry thats full of egos and attitudes. Always love the vlogs. Keep them comming. By the way im a drummer and its because of you in about 1986 ....i was 18 at the time wearng vision streetwear which i still have that i found out about DW drums. I saw thats what you were playing with and at the time i had never heard of them. Then i went on to work for them in oxnard for a period of time...building drum kits....so thank you...
