Totally agree !! I saw Ratt twice back in the day they were killer !! Stephens voice is shot its time to call it a day. He was still good about 8 years ago when they released there last album. He sounded damn good, but this performance blows !
Just goes to show drugs and strong drink ruin a clean Temple. time and time again we see rock stars just f****** their health and it shows on the outside and they look like s***. It's so sad they could have really hung on to their prime a lot longer.
Dude you not the only one. I worked at an outdoor music theatre when I was in high school and college in the 1980's early 1990's and saw them all in their prime. Someone build a time machine please. I'm going back to the 80's to never return!
people can say what they want about ratt performing like this, but it's half of the living classic lineup... be thankful that juan and stephen can come together to do this
Now I've got a Ratt problem too! I'm running across America in March (2021) for disabled vets and the adventure/challenge. This song has captured my attention (I don't know why it didn't years ago) and I plan to use it for motivation on my run and as the opening song for the video documentary if Ratt will give me permission. This is a band that knows how to rock and I never appreciated their talents before. Thank you Geiko for reminding me of this band's unique talents.
I get goose bumps on my whole body, this is really good and Stephen does a superb job with his voice. And all the flashbacks i get from back in the days, holy hell.
I love Ratt..I'm 46 and been in some bands during my time that played Ratt songs..I love playing Round and Round to this day and is prbly my favorite to play along with Back for More..I don't cheese out any riffs and play it exactly they way Warren did back in the 80's..I love this stuff!
Pearcy sounds the best he has in years..period....if your hating this you obviously havent seen any ratt/pearcy shows in years....studio ratt will always beat live ratt....to be honest Stephen's vocals werent perfect in the 80s either
Ratt sounds good here,. Guitar players are great...Hey people, Fleetwood Mac, and The Eagles had to change band members a hundred times in their existence....And even The Rolling Stones a few times..Shit Happens...The way I see it is, I just turned 62, so Steve Pearcy has to be about my age, or a little older ..And he's still trying to Rock and Roll for the people..Rock and Fuckin' Roll!!..For the people... Around the country!! That's tough stuff...Shit, I get tired just walking around Walmart a couple of times..lol...Rock On Ratt...PS I was never a HUGE Ratt fan..But.....frankm62yroldwhitekid....
Nick Jackson. Yep. For about a decade or so 81/82 -93ish he was unstoppable. There was nobody that could touch them. Sadly he's a joke now. And it's sad. Roth was same way. Saw them in 2015 and was highly disappointed but glad I went. I didn't bother with last Crue tour. Saw them in 2011 and VN was terrible.
Good? Better than last many years but thats not a large achievement. He is still rough and croaky with zero high notes sung. Plus, its 2 of 5, Maybe they should sells tickets as RATTY
@@vladlashing That's the whole point, it's well documented that he has had issues singing over the years. So for people to notice his improvements, it is a big achievement. For both Pearcy and the fans. At 62 years old, expectations aren't huge. All people want is to go to a show and enjoy, without having to complaint about his singing. People will be happy if this becomes a nightly occurrence.
@@MetalMaster101 I went to see them in Detroit when it was all of them (except Cavazo of course). Thats was brutal beyond belief. I was pretty stoked to see Ratt. Thats my youth. But soon as they hit the stage the music was OK, kinda sloppy, but the voice ... excruciating. I tried to get over it but me and my wife both left in the middle as it was just plain awful and he was high on top of all that. Never again as that's a complete insult to people who pay good money for tickets. Never again will a dollar of mine fly their way. LA guns was the opening that night and were great. Don Dokken played and even he was better than Pearcy albeit pretty rough. Warrant was next and never interested me but they were bang on I have to give them that. Then Ratt, the whole reason I was there... such a build up ... such a disappointment.
This makes me happy. Steven wasn't fucked up in this and singing horrible. I enjoyed it. He's got some redemption points. I also like how the guitarist added solo that wasn't there in the original from warren. He's good! Unfortunately this is the best you will get from steven. Still better than current vince neil. No one will argue this.
Y'all must admit that guitar player is badass, and the other guy after hearing the lead break harmony, I'm sure brings it 7 days a week and twice on Sunday..... and there's an ass filling every seat !!! God bless them they still get to make some money
I wish I had seen this. I live in Jackson. I was a major Ratt fan in junior high in the 80s. I saw them play in Jackson twice back then, and they were awesome. The first time I saw them, the opening act was some nobody band called Bon Jovi.
I miss seen Bobby, Warren, Robbin (R.I.P) in the band, BUT HEY! We still have RATT (Stephen and Juan) rocking the world! RATT and ROLL \m/ :) \m/ Cheers from PUERTO RICO! \
I've been critical of Pearcy when I thought he deserved it but I have to say this is a pretty solid performance IMHO. Also nice to see Jordan Ziff growing as a performer; his playing has always been great.
Just goes to show no matter what, fans will always still enjoy the music and want to see the band even if they're old. If the band can still perform well, that's just the bonus.
Came back as I always do. Where are you guys? Love seeing solid drumming and Jimi Hendrix prodigees dueling like crazy. Great job all of you, even old ass Stevie Shitface.
you mean it was worse than this? it cant be so. i see we are both kiss fans. i make tons of kiss videos. i have not heard ratt in years. saw this and thought wow this is not right. it sounds terrible to me.
I wish the world had a rewind button so we could go back to the 80's when (some of us) were young and these bands were in their prime.
You and i both. 80s were great . girls with big hair that loved to fuck. Smoke some weed with homemade wine. Loved the 80s

Soon as I get that friggin flux capacitor working, I 'll swing by and pick y all up.
My son’s band, No Sympathy, will be opening for Ratt in August here in Sacramento. Proud dad here!🤘🏻
AFTERBURNER fuck yeah!!
Great !!
Lol they're washed up
AFTERBURNER no they wont
Iceman3000 They already did,August of last year !🤣
After reading the comments I don't care what anyone says about them, I still rather go see Ratt than 99% of the groups/singers out today :)
I ll drink to that! K N!!
Agree 100%
I think so too!!
They're touring, so you may get a chance if we survive!
Def leppard is still great
I’ll take the Ratt version from ‘86 any day. Warren D. is one of the best.
I'll take 1984
When the ticket prices were 20-30% of that today and when they (the whole, real band) delivered.
Agreed but that kid does real well.
We need Robbin too. Gone too soon.
That 83 or 84 live video not sure the year but they sounded like the album on that one
Wow, this is one of the best vocal performances from him in the post 80s era!! He actually sang in tune
I love this song and Ratt!! Stephen Pearcy still sounds like he does back then, just older. They still rock!! 😍💖
@Juan Kristian You’re welcome 😊
He's still got it! This was my song! I miss the 80s!
Bands don't stay in their prime forever!! sounds great to me! 😎 Considering it came out 35 years ago
You are right, people criticize bands when they are no longer in their peak, if they only look what they did years ago...
Yup that and the drama. They're in and out.
He sounds better than Vince Neil 🤷♂️
... that's a tough call. LMAO!
My dog farting sounds better then Vince 😆
Vince Meal
My cat meowing sounds better than Vince Neil.
😁😆😅😂🤣 !!
He sounds great when he is on stage sober
I will always love Ratt...Thank you for the upload!!!!
I miss Warren, but...Jordan Ziff, what a fantastic player, great chops, flawless technique!
Isn't the guy who performed with Marty Friedman?
@@lechsacrifice yes!
Kudos to the guitar line up. Best it's been since the original lineup. These guys do it as close as possible, it's not Warren but it's really good.
The music is tight. No, it's not the original lineup but very good.
Extremely good
They do shred! They are VERY good!
people can say what they want about ratt performing like this, but it's half of the living classic lineup... be thankful that juan and stephen can come together to do this
Well, he's still above ground. I'll give respect for that.
Were the two guitarist even born when this song came out, lol?
Hell nooo!!!
ZBlacktt
Doesn’t matter. To imagine they grew up fans just like us. It’s great.
@@kcb5336 Yeah I was KISS in the mid early 70's... Was just a funny you got triggered by, lol.
They kick ass, and aren't riding around in ghetto 4 wheel drives with rap shit playing. So God Bless them. 🤘
No but they both frikin ROCK!!!
Grew up listening to this song for years. Never expected that I'm still listening in 2019
I used to teach this song to my guitar students back in 1986!
Now I've got a Ratt problem too! I'm running across America in March (2021) for disabled vets and the adventure/challenge.

Cover some Vitto or Lynch bro.Thats skills.Warren was a beast as well!!
Pearcy actually sounds better in this than I’ve seen him in s long time. I didn’t say it was good....
I saw Ratt twice back in the 80s. They put on a great show!
Pearcy sounds the best he has in years..period....if your hating this you obviously havent seen any ratt/pearcy shows in years....studio ratt will always beat live ratt....to be honest Stephen's vocals werent perfect in the 80s either
His microphone has autotune on it. It makes his voice sound better.
Don't kid yourself, he needs to retire that worn out box😂!!
He's never sounded good outside of the studio bc he's not a good singer
Type in Ratt unplugged. You will not believe Stephen's voice.
@@0sumgamezzz435 I did. dont know if he sounds weirdly good or downright awful.
Amazing song !!! Lot of great memories come to mind when listening to this !!
Wow! Times have definitely changed. .. 🤘❤
Band sounds great in 2019! Rock on!
This is still rocking. Yes!
I love RATT! They sound fantastic but I miss the other guys. I really miss Robin ( Rest In Peace ).
LOVE U Stephen & the boys..... GOD BLESS U GUYS
Quite possible the LOUDEST concert that I have ever seen! These guys rock!
Y’all say what you want but that outro solo was amazing

Sounds great!!🤘
A lead guitarist is much like a lead vocalist ... they can't be replaced.
sounds great!
Nice to watch a recent performance from them of their old biggest hit!
I was there and it was an awesome show. Stephen Pearcy sounded great in person! ❤
I was there too and quite suprised they sounded amazing!
Nick Jackson when Pearcy isn't whacked out he's decent. When he's whacked he makes Vince look great
@@daveg4236 yea I've seen Vince at his best and worst...he can sing when he wants to but has gotten lazy and doesn't try! Motley is my fave band🤘🤘
Nick Jackson. Yep. For about a decade or so 81/82 -93ish he was unstoppable. There was nobody that could touch them. Sadly he's a joke now. And it's sad. Roth was same way. Saw them in 2015 and was highly disappointed but glad I went.

@@daveg4236 I saw him 2 years ago solo and he was on fire then this year I've seen clips and he sounded like shit
Awesome !!! Stephen and band sound great!!!
Great to see these bands still doing there thing
Pearcy is redeeming himself from the last tour in this first two shows, he's sounding really great
Good? Better than last many years but thats not a large achievement. He is still rough and croaky with zero high notes sung. Plus, its 2 of 5, Maybe they should sells tickets as RATTY

Saw Ratt in the mid-90s
A little past their hey-day at Cains ballroom in Tulsa. I think they still had the original line-up. Great concert.
This makes me happy. Steven wasn't fucked up in this and singing horrible. I enjoyed it. He's got some redemption points. I also like how the guitarist added solo that wasn't there in the original from warren. He's good! Unfortunately this is the best you will get from steven. Still better than current vince neil. No one will argue this.
Technically he's just finishing the solo fade out that happens in the studio version, but that's still a good one nonetheless
other than the fact that he is wearing my jacket. He sounds very good. Glad he's doing better.
Agreed!!
I’m seeing them in Pittsburgh in a few days at Jergels. Sold out show. I’m looking forward to this.
That Jordan ziff is a badass. It's funny this song was 10 years old when he was born
Yes he also plays with Marty Friedman
LOVE U GUYS... GOD BLESS U GUYS.....
The dual lead solo was sweet!
Pearcy looks like he's decomposing.
That's fucking Hilarious!!!! No doubt
Lmfaooooo
Dyin' 🤣🤣
Rollin::
The guy is 63 what do you expect? plus think about the life style he lived for years in the rock n roll world.
Remember them 1981 my first cassette from ratt good times
I would've loved to see them as Mickey Ratt, with Jake E. Lee.
Nothing will ever be as good as the original lineup.
Nope.
Essa musica é uma perfeição, anos 80 tem as melhores bandas! 🇧🇷 here!
I saw them in 2009 for 25 yr celebration of Out of The Cellar...Pearcy sounded really good that night!
I tried wearing out a cassette of Greatest Hits, and this one has its own special flavor!
WoW ! Impressive! They still sound great
Awesome!!!!!
Awesomeness!! SEP sounds great!!
Stephen Pearcy Band featuring Juan Croucier
Yeah no warren demartini no ratt
Youd put an arrow thru my heart
Y'all must admit that guitar player is badass, and the other guy after hearing the lead break harmony, I'm sure brings it 7 days a week and twice on Sunday..... and there's an ass filling every seat !!! God bless them they still get to make some money
3 decades of singing the same 10 songs would would probably make me an alcoholic too.
10 songs ? Your being generous
Lol!!!
I wish I had seen this. I live in Jackson. I was a major Ratt fan in junior high in the 80s. I saw them play in Jackson twice back then, and they were awesome. The first time I saw them, the opening act was some nobody band called Bon Jovi.
I'll see Jordan Ziff the next time he comes through with Marty Friedman.
Goosebumps everytime
6th grade Burlington Iowa , great concert !
These guitarists look like they weren't even born when ratt was entertaining us all back in the great 80's! GOD DO I FEEL OLD!!! 55
I miss seen Bobby, Warren, Robbin (R.I.P) in the band, BUT HEY! We still have RATT (Stephen and Juan) rocking the world! RATT and ROLL \m/ :) \m/ Cheers from PUERTO RICO!

Stephen sounds awesome, keep the hard work up guys!🤟🏼💀🐀
The sound is actually pretty damn good for a fan cam.
Whatever your using it's picking up the audio perfectly 🤘
iPhone 7 Plus. :)
@@alderaanman5470 omg, that's sounds real clear for a cell phone!!!!!!
😯 I didn't even think about it until I read this! It might as well be a soundboard mix. 🎧😽
Pete is on the beat his feel is killer mad respect true professional Bravo &Cheers 🛒
They have the echo / reverb turned up to 100 on the vocals to mask Pearcy's shot voice...
I saw them live in 86 he sounded like ass then! The rest of the band kicked ass.
Nothing better than a rock group kicking ass.
Why does Pearcy look like he just walked off the set of The Walking Dead?
😬
Too much crack and heroin.
Is there something wrong with ur head, its call life, worry about what ur gonna look like
Jordan Ziff is incredible!! Best choice for Ratt!
Hope they put out a new album this year.🎸🎶😎
They are not putting out a new album. Just saw an interview with Pearcy. Too bad cause I thought that Infestation was real good.
this is pretty good, filled up the venue and that's very cool
acabei de conhecer a banda e já gostei excelente. .
Sounds great!!!!
buy a new hearing aid
Pearcy's back? It's only been 30 years. About time.
Ummmmm, I saw them in 07 and they sounded great!!!
I've been critical of Pearcy when I thought he deserved it but I have to say this is a pretty solid performance IMHO. Also nice to see Jordan Ziff growing as a performer; his playing has always been great.
Sound like a capable band.. unlike last year with Pearcy's affliction. I would go see these guys in a heartbeat!
Damn dude they sound great
Awesome crowd. People having a good time. Percy will always be cool.
THE BANDIT THE BANDIT no he’s washed up!!
Damn if they’re packing venues like that , I don’t blame them , get that money
Just goes to show no matter what, fans will always still enjoy the music and want to see the band even if they're old. If the band can still perform well, that's just the bonus.
Yeah, THAT'LL HELP when WE DIE!! IDIOTIC!!
There must be two hundred people in there holy shit
The music sounds amazing but the singing sounds amateur!
Agreed.
Sound good!!
Sounds killer 🤘😎
he looks good man really good. LOng hair again and it looks like he is happy. Ratt one of the greatest hardrock songs of all time
Came back as I always do. Where are you guys? Love seeing solid drumming and Jimi Hendrix prodigees dueling like crazy. Great job all of you, even old ass Stevie Shitface.
Rock All The Time!!
It's not Warren, or Robin ( RIP) on guitars, but hey, I'd go see them still ! Sounding great !
OG IS BEST!!!
NOT A COVER BAND!!
Compared to pearcey’s recent vocal performances this isn’t too bad.
Great lineup those guitarist Rock
I'm very impressed how Stephen improved his voice in comparison with last years... Great!
you mean it was worse than this? it cant be so. i see we are both kiss fans. i make tons of kiss videos. i have not heard ratt in years. saw this and thought wow this is not right. it sounds terrible to me.
@@MOUNTAINOUS
NOT THAT BAD LIKE PAUL LIPSYNC STANLEY
@@MOUNTAINOUS search for Ratt concerts between 2006/2018
watch my concert videos from this tour 3rd row with super close ups. wasnt happening.
The band sounds pretty damn solid man.. great job..
One kick ass show !!
Awesome performance
Yeah, he's singing in key
Also not that scratchy, cleanest he's sounded in some time. It's only their 2nd gig back, so he's obviously fresh. Hopefully he keeps it up.
I just told my old lady to run in here and dance provocative like she did in the eighties !!!!!
They still sound great.
