Both RATT and Motley are better than Poison yet look how big they became!


Poison didn't become big because of their music. They became big because of their genius promoting & marketing. Along w/ resiliency & a front man capable of selling ocean front property in the middle of the desert to just about anybody in the world!!


And don't forget the frontman's willingness to do really bad reality shows!!!!!

@BigRATTfan: I have a friend in Italy who informed me that Pearcy and his solo band are playing there next month. Interesting that He can't stay with Ratt to play those shows that were missed because of HIS back surgery, but he can take his little toy band and play for 50 people. It shows what obvious disrespect he has for his fans.

WTF?? Why doesn't Pearcy just take RATT with him?

I found this article where Blotzer is pissed at Pearcy for starting his solo band again. So it looks like they've been fighting again for some stupid reason.

Quote from Blotzer:"Look, guys, yes, I'm obviously really burnt and pissed here, yes. But I want Ratt to be Ratt. With all of us. I'm tired of rolling a snowball up hill to build the snowman. I'm also not doing this as a promo for this new book. Happens to be falling at the same time. It's all about the love of playing for you guys year in year out, and having a great job, with job security. Every single year I'm re-building this band."

So Blotzer all about keeping the band together and playing for the fans??!?? Then why they hell has been such an asshole to so many of you guys who met him?

I want the original RATT to be back touring/recording just as much as anyone. Even with Croucier and Crosby if we could bring him back!

But face it, the voice is 90% of the band. RATT is mostly Pearcy and DeMartini and you guys know it. Pearcy said he's coming out with a new solo CD and I'll buy that and also see him on tour! I'm sure he'll sing the RATT classics but I definitely prefer that he tours with RATT!!

@BigRATTfan: Why doesn't he take Ratt with him? My feeling is that he's an immature, arrogant a** hole who can't swallow his pride enough to get along with Bobby. He'd just rather screw the loyal Ratt fans who have followed them all these years and were looking forward to seeing them tour together again. You couldn't pay me enough to go see him solo! I will say this for him though-- even though he's not a great singer by any stretch of the imagination, his voice works perfectly with Ratt--which is why he needs to grow up and figure out how to work it out with the band. And why he should be touring Europe (and the US) with his REAL band!

From the Eddie Trunk web article linked above by BigRATTfan: A quote from Bob:

"All will be told in my new book. I'll tell you this, though: I'm sick of the lies and deception from the whole lot of them in this band. And guess what, who owns the name? Two right now..."

Call me stupid, but I guess I need help figuring this out.....aren't there THREE that own the Ratt name?

?????????

Robbinbird, I'd like to know the same thing. How the hell do we only have 2 people owning RATT when we started with 5??

Crosby had an equal share and that didn't go away just because he was fired so I assume the band bought him out back then? That leaves us with 4 shares of RATT so what happened to Croucier's share?? How did he lose it?

Ratt2001 made a post implying that Pearcy is gettin screwed out of his fair share of RATT and if that's true I can totally understand why he's so pissed off!!

Pearcy IS Ratt for pete's sake!! Without Pearcy the RATT sound is gone forever and you guys KNOW it!! HOW could Blotzer the blockhead be denying Pearcy his fair share of band proceeds??

DeMartini seems to be the most level headed guy in the band so you would think he would make sure Pearcy gets his fair share!!

BTW, it's cool you picked a screename after the King Crosby!

BigRattFan.....You need to read Blotzers book. You would get a lot of answers to the questions you keep asking.
