Ratt in Springfield MO.
December 11, 2010 9:20:30 PM UTC Post #1

I went to the Ratt concert in Springfield back in September. I came away with mixed feelings.
I am a Ratt fanatic and have been since I was 16 and I am 40 now.
The attendance was horrible about 500 people and Stephen was obviously peeved about it.
I was the only one in the building with a Ratt t-shirt on. I think it was a case of something to do
on a Friday night for a lot of people. Skid Row played a good set and Sebastian looks like he
has lost some weight.
Ratt played the same play-list posted on the Site. I would imagine that would get old.
I would have posted earlier but I am a student and now that I have the time I figured I'd post.

timothy55@live.com - That was not Sebastian Bach. He is no longer with Skid Row. I don't recall the new lead singers name but he was good enough to fool you into thinking he was. lol

BigRATTfan - They played at the Shrine Mosque. My least favorite venue in Springfield. Not that we have a lot of choices but there are a handful of other places I could mention that I would rather see a concert.
As far as songs, I remember Way Cool Jr, Back for More, You Should Know by Now, Your In Love, Lay it Down, of course Round and Round and I'm fairly certain Wanted Man was played.

Here's a link to my Flickr album of photos I took that night.

Cool photos Momilkman! You got to meet the band! Awesome! Stepen looks a little strange in the pic. He's on the far right correct? Maybe he's just tired after a long concert.

On the far left is that Warren holding the red cup or who is that?? Doesn't look quite like Warren.

Can't wait till they tour again since I missed them the last time.

Yea, Pearcy is far right. I had my 50mm lens on (smallest I had because it fit in my pocket) and I obviously had someone else take that shot in a VERY small room. He didn't get it focused so it's a little blurry. Sorry. None the less, I was still glad to get a pic with one of the best frontmen of all time.

No, that isn't Warren. He was supposed to make it to the Meet and Greet but we were told he had some family issues (or something) to take care of. And Blotzer (from what I have heard) has bailed on every Meet and Greet they have because he is just too important to meet his fans.

Good times. Won't ever forget that.
