    Gillis is criminally underrated. Replaced Randy Rhoads at a moments notice and killed it. And Uncle Ted is THE MAN.

      Bernie Torme actually replaced Randy, which is impossible to do on a moment's notice, Brad had a little more notice and did a great job

      Nugent is a child molester. Listen to what Courtney Love says he did to her at 12. If you don’t believe it read his lyrics to Jailbait. If you still don’t believe it look at the teen Ted adopted so he could have sex with her.

      I read an article not long ago. They all have shit going on. Guess Cartellone is the hardest to get on board just because he'd been playing for Skynyrd and they had a pretty busy schedule. According to Blades, didn't sound like was likely to ever happen. Not because they had issues, but because the schedules don't work.

      They were all on board, except Ted didn't want to tour year round. He only wanted to tour summers, because he wanted to hunt during the other seasons. So, all the other guys went back to their other bands.

He said from sticking his head into those big Fender PA stacks years ago like he did during his concerts it literally blew his ear drum out in one ear lol . He was well known for very loud concerts and one outdoor concert he played people said they could hear him plat from 12 miles away 😂 .

    I started to agree with johno6590 below, and then I thought - wait a minute. Gillis has been in my top five quitarists of all time since the early 80's. His precision and skill with the tremolo bar are not matched by many. If he is less well known, its just because Night Ranger was not in a league with Led Zeppelin, The Who, Journey, etc when it came to record sales. And I agree that his sliding into Rhoades slot on a moment's notice showed an abundance of talent.

    Gosh, what a great performance! Had no idea they were playing in T.C. For the Cherry Festival! Would’ve loved to seen that. Ted was my introduction to rock concerts back in ‘79; Civic Auditorium in Grand Rapids, Michigan - Wango Tango tour. Never looked back after that! Thank you so much for bringing this to the masses! I’ve always been a fan of Night Ranger and Damn Yankees too, so no disrespect intended there!
