Stephen Pearcy is awesome. He has been humbled by health issues and has decided to just have a great time bringing his music to everyone. He will always be a badass frontman and his band compliments him well.
Exactly!!!!!!!!! I was just saying the same thing in a reply. This is pure raw rock n roll...as it should be!!!! I'd see this any time over the so called gods of rock KISS. I was a huge KISS fan,now I'm just a fan of who and what they used to be. Will remain an avid RATT fan!!!
I love that small town atmosphere juxtaposed with a hard rock band playing on main street. It's cool. I really love that Gibson bass, though. Lots of energy in the set. Fun.
Awesome!!! Total live rocking! No backing tracks and click tracks like these so called "legends". Give me my rock n roll raw with NO fillers!!! You go Stephen!!!! You rocked back in the day..and ya still kick ass!👊🏿🤘🏿
Great video. Sad to say that Stephen and Ratt should be playing stadiums like Motley and Def Leppard. Instead he's playing parking lots in small town Ohio. Kudos to Stephen for still going strong but Ratt cost themselves hundreds of millions of dollars all of these years because they could not get along.
Ratt also probably cost themselves money by not selling out and releasing a power ballad when everyone else was, but that’s part of what makes them the best. Money is not always a sign of greatness. Sometimes it’s just a reward for selling yourself out. A stadium tour would have been great for the fans, and maybe monetarily for the band too, but they’ve been at it for a while and they have families and lives outside of music. Again, there’s more to life than money.
@@MasterSumai on Crue the only thing that sounds good are the playbacks, so Pearcy is still better than Crue Not to mention the horrible modernization that John 5 has been bringing to the solos, in addition to being more still than Mick Mars himself 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’m 58 and still a fan …thnx for being the real deal and not lip syncing And great talented musicians and l like the shirt the guitar players wearing 🎸
I was there right in front. It was LOUD and I wasn’t sure if his mic was turned down or not. Watching this video with headphones and I can clearly hear his voice. Sure he’s old but props to him for actually singing. It was cool for him to perform in Willoughby. No complaints cuz this was a free show. I loved RATT growing up.
A lot of people like the front row and think it's cool and everything which it is but you're hearing the monitors and backline when you are that close.. not the mains so much
It's not the worst I've heard Pearcy sound, but it's him it's live and it's about having fun, it's songs he recorded almost 40 years ago and its about reminiscing with the music of our youth... rock on Stephen!
Tight killer band . Johnny was very cool to see since I watch he and Jason Green do their Stephen Pearcy tour which is pretty awesome . This is a great video
Ahh man! So bummed I didn’t know they were playing in Willoughby😢 Awesome performance by Stephen & his band as always!! Thank you for posting this vid, I really enjoyed it🤟🏻
Johnny Monaco is the truth. That Back for More solo at the end? Damn! I love how Stephen gives Johnny his cue at 22:46 to go to the rhythm closing by saying “oh” Gave him a look..as to say “that’s enough”
This is great! Monaco SLAYIN’ and Stephen sounds better than he has in a long time. Putting it all to work here. I am impressed. The man is 58 and singing better than most of his scene!
STRONG STRONG STUFF!!! Every band member into it, and it shows. Smiling Stephen!! Good to see! Those road signs behind and above, one going right, one left, and one straight ahead would look good on a Stepehen Pearcy t-shirt or jacket. (Just an amateur's suggestion).
Los años no pasan de valde. La voz está en otro nivel. Conocí a ratt en 1988 y se co virtio en una de mis bandas favoritas. Larga vida al rock n roll. Saludos
As much that I love Don's voice in the past but sadly he reached a stage where he can't really sing anymore. He should call it quits. His legacy will still lives on. Very talented artist and he proved it with Up from the Ashes which is one my all time favorite albums
Oh Snap! All the classic RATT songs. OMG I feel like a kid again. Coming to NC? Know the perfect band to open for you. Link in my BIO. LET THE OBLIVION BEGIN!!
JM makes it look easy when it is not. Thanks for uploading, although I hate phones at concerts, this is the standard they must all be filming for - but failing miserably.
I was a ratt fan back in the day but sorry the magic is gone and if you weren't a part of it back then you don't understand what im saying enjoy your cover band
Legen...dary! A downtown concert just on the streets! They need to move city to city with this show, so that all people are in love and no one lay it down! 🤘
Actually they used to do that in Los Angeles back in the day. It was called L.A. Street Scene and I saw many acts like Poison, Edgar Winter Group, Sound Barrier, etc. Last time it went it was back in 1985!!!
Hell yeah this another 80s band I hope I get a chance to see , here they sound great and there's alot of energy ; Stephen sounds great, I've seen alot of the bands I grew up with . Vince Neil sure disappointed me , at the bronco bowl in TX years ago. Rattle was always a favorite of mine , can't wait for a chance to hear him sing these live..
Willoughby, Ohio - Downtown Festival Concert - May 23,2023 Set list: 1) Walk thru - stage set up - tuning 2) Wanted Man 3) Lay it Down 4) Lack of Communication 5) You Think You're Tough 6) Back For More
Stephen Pearcy is awesome. He has been humbled by health issues and has decided to just have a great time bringing his music to everyone. He will always be a badass frontman and his band compliments him well.
Yeah I just hope that he takes care of himself and stays healthy and continues to Rock On!
He seems humbled now and very nice. He appreciates the people who made him who he is....a legend.
Pearcy sounds great no phoney backing tracks

I actually think they guitars are tracked in
@@michaelmason6683nope,there are actually playing
yea, they are playing, and doing a great job. I can tell they really love the music.
@@leedouglass9636
NEVER DISSAPOINTS!!-STEPHEN AND THE BAND ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING MUSICIANS!!👊🤘🤘🤘❤
He was born to be a rock star.
Stephen Pearcy still sounds awesome! What a cool video & street concert! Wow! 😮 Great work! 🤘😎
I love that small town atmosphere juxtaposed with a hard rock band playing on main street. It's cool. I really love that Gibson bass, though. Lots of energy in the set. Fun.
That drumstick toss during the walk-up.was epic! 😊🎵🎸
Agree!
Exactly!!!!!!

Still sounding better than Vince Neil 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahahaha genial esse comentario 😅😂😂😂😂🇧🇷🎸🤘
Must need to get your hearing checked. The only thing sounding good was the band, not Pearcy.
@@MasterSumai on Crue the only thing that sounds good are the playbacks, so Pearcy is still better than Crue
Not to mention the horrible modernization that John 5 has been bringing to the solos, in addition to being more still than Mick Mars himself 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's not saying much
Doesn’t sound very good at all. Neck and neck with Neil. Both awful. Rest of the band pretty good
Hey kids! This is what real music sounds like played by talented musicians.Hi from the UK! This band is so tight!
I completely disagree with you.
Love you Stephen ......god bless you
Love Stephen Pearcy. Turned out to be a great guy. Sounding really good here.
I think his voice sounds fine and a shout out to Johnny Monaco 🎸 great show!!!
Excellent guitar solos !
🤘🏻 🌟 🤘
Better then John bon Jovi? 😬
Johnny is the best, the Zelig man of hard rock.
Great solid band. Sounds like they're all having fun and that's what rock n roll is all about
I like how you captured the Walk up! We were there and loved it . Been about 6 years since our last Stephen Pearcy show! Thx
Johnny Monaco is SOLID! Phenomenal guitarists on both sides!
I loved him in Enuff Z' Nuff
Yep he's great, one of the funniest guys around too.
Love listening to him and Jason Green chat on the podcast - Hilarious stuff.
Stephen is definitely one of the coolest frontmen ever!!!!

I was there in front, too.
I was in the front as well. I could not hear Stephen well either. The video here I can hear him much better.
@@tommyp8845 you were probably too close to the stage to get the full sound from the mains.
Stephen is BADASS!💯🔥🥊
Stephen looking and sounding great!!
Stephen's band is top notch and a great bunch of guys. Stephen still sounds great. Ratt & Roll Forever!
He's got a good band 100 % live
Pearcy is an American Treasure. Thank you for this killer vid.
It's not the worst I've heard Pearcy sound, but it's him it's live and it's about having fun, it's songs he recorded almost 40 years ago and its about reminiscing with the music of our youth... rock on Stephen!
This goes to show how badass ratt was and how people love Stephen!!!
I got chills when Scott threw him that drumstick!! Very cool!
He got chills too. LOL!
@@ChrisJAuman Lol!
Way cool Stephen and also way cool Chris Auman for sharing this with us!🤘
Great show ! Thanks for posting. Hope to see you and yours here in Las Vegas soon.
Stephen and the band sound awesome!!! So great to see them bringing live music to the stage!
Thanks for this!
Thanks for posting I like catching them walk up to the stage then snagging a drum stick, 🤘
Drummer gets into it, that is how it should be!
awesome another legend
Damn, Johnny is on fire!!
I cheered out loud at the ending Back For More lead! Wow! Nailed it!
Pearcys voice is pretty much shot but he's still a legend and he's 100% live, major props to him and the band.
I think he does fine, just tough singing solo, with that mix
That’s how it comes across to me anyway. 😎
Compared to today's Vince Neil today's Pearcy sounds like Pavarotti.
He sounded pretty good once he got his voice warmed up.
@@termsofusepolice Too fucking true
An actual "live" rock concert! Awesome 👏🏽 sounds great Stephen and band 🤘🏾👍🏾
Saw him in jacksonville years ago.he put on a good show
I saw Stephen last month in Austin. I was surprised at how good he sounded. It was basically a greatest hits show. Awesome !
While he sounds great .
I never thought I would say this in 2023 that he sounds BETTER than Vince Neil .. but he does .
No one knows how Neil💩 sounds cause he uses prerecorded backing tapes👎
Ratt and Roll. Thank you for the awesomeness.
I like him 👍 I like the band 👍
Cool video, man! Much appreciated!
Damn they sound good!!!! Monaco is a great player too! Wish we could see this in Germany.
they sound faithful to the original which is awesome- RIP Robbin
Dual guitar attack at its finest🎼🔥
Thank you👍

What a privilege it was seeing these guys at the Philadelphia spectrum back in 80s! Bon jovi actually opened up for ratt before jovi hit it big
I saw that tour! Bon Jovi opening! Wow.
Yes that was Jovis 7800 degrees Fahrenheit album tour and Ratt Invasion of your Privacy album tour. I saw the Kansas City show ..
@@frisbeeshawn5356 I saw that tour in Austin,Tx...either '84 or '85
@@ChrisJAuman we saw that tour in Detroit. Bon Jovi blew Ratt away. Robin Crosby was so wasted!

Thanks for sharing. So cool seeing Eric on guitar. He has a podcast called “Chris Akin presents”
Saw Ratt back in the 80's..Keep on Rocking
Love Stephen! From India
Killer Show!!¡🔥🔥🔥🔥💥
How awesome to have legends perform a street concert
Los años no pasan de valde. La voz está en otro nivel. Conocí a ratt en 1988 y se co virtio en una de mis bandas favoritas. Larga vida al rock n roll. Saludos
I’m from NE Ohio, I didn’t even realize you guys were in town! Ease up on Johnny Jason! He’s Great!🤘🤘
I can't believe Ratt's playing block parties at this point but hear I am rocking out like it's still 1985.
Great video.
Nice to see the band and crowd perking up for Back For More!!)
Unfortunately the fans got what the venue paid for. Less than 30 minutes. RATT!!! 😊
I wonder how many K?
Sounds great!
😃 I grew up in Willoughby!
Hell yeah!!!🤘
Stephen has really been working his ass off lately. He and Kristi Adair are getting married too, so congrats. He sounds better than Don Dokken.
As much that I love Don's voice in the past but sadly he reached a stage where he can't really sing anymore. He should call it quits. His legacy will still lives on. Very talented artist and he proved it with Up from the Ashes which is one my all time favorite albums
A cat having sex in the backyard sounds better than Don Dokken 😂 Stephen's not that far behind but if people still go to seem em, good for them.
