- Time for another badass previously archived concert that I have come across on TH-cam. Ratt is another one of my favorite bands of all time, and I find it so odd how they don't have a lot of pro-shot footage out there.
With the exception of the Rock Palace 1984 show being available on bootleg DVD, and the officially released Videos From The Cellar (which was a documentary filmed on the band's 1985-1986 Invasion of Your Privacy tour, with their music videos from 1983-1991), there isn't any other official, pro shot Ratt footage out there sadly...until I came across a Bon Jovi concert in Japan at the famous Tokyo Dome on New Year's Eve, 1988, during THEIR MASSIVE New Jersey tour, where the band played the show with Ratt, Kingdom Come (who are also underrated), and Britney Fox (who suck).
I took the footage, boosted the colors, uploaded it in HD, and pretty much edited together the 3 songs from the entire show that Ratt was featured in:
1.) "Way Cool Jr." (0:00)
2.) "Chain Reaction" (5:00)
- ENCORE (featuring New Year's Countdown, 10:33)
3.) It's All Over Now" (10:52, duet with Bon Jovi, Kingdom Come, and Britney Fox).
I have also boosted the volume, and you can really hear the band in top form here. Reach For The Sky is a VASTLY underrated, stellar album from the Ratt catalogue. A lot of fans have said this tour in particular was where the band really sounded at their most mature and creative peak, and iconic lead singer Stephen Pearcy and iconic guitars Warren Demartini are musically cooking here like a fine Australian sirloin! Enjoy!

I had a awesome youth.. bro growing up in the 80s .. I loved life..
LIKEWISE!
I was 10 years old in 1986 when I started to listen music and I discovered all this great bands. Even though my teenager days were during the 90s, I keep the 80 as my favorite decade.
@Douglas Fisher .. Doug ..if you ever hear of someone coming up with a time machine brother give me hauler ..
I know what you mean! In January, 1980, I was still in grade school; in December, 1989, I was already working for three years. I experienced everything in the ‘80’s. Wish I could go back.
Agreed
After decades of drama we should not forget, what a great band RATT once was. And what great songs they wrote.
Goddamn, that looks like a good time. I'm smiling ear to ear watching the video 32 years later. Lol
Ratt was so great. Saw them 3 times. Never disappointed
Amazing band
Say what you want about Blotz but he was the perfect drummer for ratt the way he plays guys so well with Juan and Robbin's rhythm playing and Warren is just a freak (flame on torch) and Stephen is the perfect voice for all of ratts song's .
Warren D is one of the most underrated guitarists of that time. Killer guitar player
Underrated by whom? Only idiots. Absolutely everyone respects the guy. He's NEVER been underrated by anyone who isn't stupid
Hes good but underrated no. Everybody admits it I think.. but yeah he was good
Robbin was just as good as Warren.
Hello Fresh during out of the cellar. Then Warren progressed and Robbin didn't
Todd Daniel almost all of the 80s band had incredibly talented musicians. What a great time to be alive. The shredding was okay but it was the melodic players like Warren who really had a huge impact on the scene.
Ratt was and still is one of my favorites as well. I have never seen this until today. Well done!! Ratt n Roll🤘
God , thanks for my youth!
Ratt is still one of my all time favorite bands ever! The first time I ever listened to Ratt was back in 1988 I had gotten their Invasion Of Your Privacy album at Camelot Music store on cassette tape at barely ten years old. It is still my favorite Ratt album ever. I do love all their other albums alot also including Out Of The Cellar, Dancing Undercover, Reach For The Sky, Detonator, and Infestation. The only thing I wish Ratt would do is release a 2CD live album from one of their old tours from the 80's or early 90's. Stephen Pearcy has said in old interviews that Ratt has alot of amazing professionally done live material for a potential live album and Blu-ray. I hope that one day they do it.
John Katsoudas Invasion of Your Privacy is also my favorite album and tour by them I’m 16 and the only thing I am able to go off by them on that tour is pictures and audio shows and the you’re in love video and the Omaha 85 video, I’m also hoping one day they do an anniversary box set with a bunch of shows that were recorded and remaster them and remaster the album I mean you gotta think it was their first headline tour so they must have the footage somewhere because I heard that they did record the full show where they did the you’re in love video so the footage must be owned by the members of RATT themselves hopefully they do something like that
My days in teen and twenty were quiet yet bumpy, but RATT always took hold of my realities and made them something to remember! Thanks guys, YOU REALLY HIT IT!
This is awesome! There isn't enough pro-shot Ratt stuff out there, great footage and thanks for sharing \m/
Absolutely awesome thank you for posting this
this is great - thanks for your effort.
Great job editing!!! And thanks for sharing!!! This is awesome!!!
Nice job man. Really made this vid stand out!
Was at this show with Bon Jovi and Kingdom Come!
There were back to back shows i was in the navy stationed in japan i saw them the next day 1/1/1989 my first concert ever bon jovi RATT & kingdom come
Only saw Ratt twice...in '91, then in '97; unfortunately, Robbin Crosby wasn't there--makes me sad.
@Jason F. Actually, 4 out of the 5 original band artists were there I saw live at Mile High Denver-2 venues respectively: Paramount Theater, & Fiddler's Green. I even have the concert Tee shirts.
Actually saw Bon Jovi open up for Ratt back when they had just released 7800° Fahrenheit. Hard to believe Ratt was actually bigger than Bon Jovi at a point.
Why the camera almost never points torwards ROBBI N CROSBY?? In several videos of ratt concerts I noticed that the camera never points to ROBBIN CROSBY
Thanks pal not enough Ratt love in the world!🤘
I love RATT, they were a great band. Way better than some of the bands around today.
I love this!!!
I was there for this show !!!!
Right......
@@richardwilson2197 I know I'm right
That awesome!
It's amazing how big these guys were.
...in japan
And in the USA before grunge.
Asians are short to begin with, besides the camera was aimed up towards them, making them seem taller that's all. Other than Robbin, they're all around 6ft.
Way cool Jr has always been my favorite Ratt song! Ratt n Roll 4ever!
Keep them coming, rattin, n, rolling 🤘🍻😬
They need to bring this kind of comradity and music back right now cuz I'm sick and tired of the f****** rap bullcrap
Rap sucks dick, and we thought Disco was bad, fuckin rap(crap) is even worse
Based Guitarist the only way for this kind of music to come back is if it fuses with hip hop culture. That’s pretty much with every music genre now, it has to fit in and have hip hop vibes. Also here’s another thing to do. The rockstars of today don’t want to be rockstars anymore. There is no rock scene emerging. Too much death metal and screaming metal crap that’s going on, there’s gotta be something new and fresh, but it can’t be death metal and screaming corny stuff. There’s gotta be something fresh and new that will define the 2020s. But there’s too many damn genres saying “that’s not rock” “that’s not metal it has to be Greta Van Fleet” that’s another problem too, nobody can’t truly define what rock and metal is.
😎👍I HEAR THAT!! FACTZ!! I AGREE 💯% !! THIS IS THE REAL DEAL RIGHT HERE IN THIS VIDEO: RATT ROCKS!!
Rap can't sell out arena's, never will
The original lineup in their prime was great. This sounds great! Blotz was groovy, Warren killed the solos, Robbin had a swing to his playing....
This isn't the original line up. Classic line up. But not original
@@daveg4236 sure...ok...I was obviously referring to the lineup that matters...the lineup that was signed.
@@rockfordrocker8971 Sometimes you have to be exact I guess 🙄.
Saw these guys at the top of thier game back in 86 / 87ish in Nashville with Bon Jovi opening for them . People forget just how big these guys were, in that awesome era . Also believe this Tokyo show was the last straw for the band dealing with Robbin Crosbys out of control drinking. Miss that dude in the lineup since then .
'85 was that tour.
'85 was that tour.. saw it in Chicago
michael hermanson Yeah I guess it was in 85 then . I remember it was Motley Crue & RATT, alone at the top of the rock / metal scene . Course Bon Jovi, Poison, etc., passed by RATT, not long after they were opening for them lol.
Ya.. Bon Jovi was headlining in 86 onward..
Actually bon jovi headlined this concert.
Somebody has to have the complete Pro-Shot show on this night instead of just 17 mins, I really hope Pearcy finds something that was done PROSHOT on any tour from 1984-1989 but sadly I don't think their is a complete Pro-Shot show from any of those classic albums which is a shame. Even Van Halen doesn't have a complete Pro-Shot show until their 5th Album DIVER DOWN. maybe one day we will get surprised with something
If only RATT could get the entire show of this Performance because this might be the only PRO-SHOT Full show of them in the 1980s (Aside from that 20 minute tv show i think at Rock Palace 1984)
I highly agree! Although this is Ratt's entire performance at the Tokyo Dome, 88.
@@reels2riffs really? I thought they would have played a full set especially traveling all that way!!! U sure they didn't open one show for bon Jovi in Tokyo?
I love it! i love it! i love it! :-)
Warren....simply fuckin crushin it....hands down...😎😎
Robbin got about 30 seconds of camera footage. He was not so well At this point and I’m sure the camera crew knew it.
I always loved Jackson guitars because I thought Robin was so cool looking with one..turns out there pimp as hell .. love em to this day and I play one every single day.. there so 80s in my opinion.. charvels too. Warren played one.. not sure how far back..
Robbin has the coolest guitars too.
Hence the Jackson "King" V, get it? They are bigger than the standard ones. Being 6'5, the standard V looks small on Robbin, so he had them make it larger.
Rip Mr Crosby.
tight set reach for the sky tour ...
The reason for the "pro-shot footage" here is that it seems that when bands played in Japan, part of the deal was that somebody (a Japanese media company?, promoters?) got the right to film the concert or at least part of it. I've seen other pro-shot footage of acts performing in Japan that you NEVER get to see in video anywhere else (outside of pirated films and before the advent of smartphones).
Such and amazing time to grow up. I would not trade those years for a trillion dollars. To actually live it in San Diego and LA in those years was amazing.
ARIGATO RATT🤟😉🧚♀️🎶
Amazing ‼️🎸🥁
I want those red white Axo gloves stephen is wearing @0:17
I LOVE RATT!!!!!!!!!
RATT-N-ROLL 😎
Like 160! A SWEET upload!
Warren with the “Brown Sound” here. Great song !
R.i.p. Robbin.
.....Dope....,😉
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
RATT ！！👏I love Hardrock👍😂
Gorgeous bands 😆nostalgic.
You say YOU uploaded the footage and edited it? Was the original on VCR tape?
I found this as part of the entire Tokyo Dome concert with the other bands, I just edited the Ratt portions out, boosted the lighting and color, and put the video in HD.
Ara Kevakian Job well done :)
Real snake skin on Warren's guitar. WOW.
Seen em open for Billy Squire Odome Gainsville Fl. Bck in the day.
Is there a full length video of this?
このコンサート、ガールフレンドと行きました！懐かしい！
\,,/ good memories でしょ
The 1st Ratt song I heard was "You think you're tough?"
Ratt and poison tour=RATT now please! Wish i still had the t-shirt
The best song they ever made
Ratt is honkgood
Only a few albums I've heard with no songs I don't like. Ratt has 3. Dancing, INvasion and Cellar are all killer. Reach for the Sky merely kicks ass though. Tooth and Nail, Ultimate Sin, Appetite for Destruction, Rocks, Signals some of the other best total albums IMO.
Ratt has loads of filler.
And less than 2 years later, Mike Tyson would be Knocked out by Buster Douglas in this same building.
Warren rocks but never really knew what to think of pearceys voice
Pearcy was not a true vocalist. He was just thrown into that position out of necessity back in the 70's before Mickey Ratt. He ended up making the most of his voice, which was limited, but unique. A style that worked for him, and would go on to eventually be the definitive Ratt sound. A sound that was unique compared to the bands at the time. It might be an acquired taste, but it certainly worked him and the band.
Ratt, Kingdom Come,Britny Fox and Bon Jovi..
Which ONE of those don’t suck balls?
@@boogiewoogit5597What do you mean? 🤨
This song really reminds me of Def Leppard.
Way Cool Jr. sounds like Aerosmith's Rag Doll.
Is that Lenny Wolf in there?
Yes! Kingdom Come was one of the other bands that night that played with Bon Jovi and sang in the encore!
I love RATT but this is heavily edited to perfection.
@Steve R; How old are you Steve? This is exactly how they used to sound in the 80’s. I would know. I was there! I have seen them many times back in the day.
@@metaljew4456 49
Shut up twatwaffle.
They were in their prime in the late 80's ......the drugs, drinking got them sounding like shit near the end of the 90's.....they are shit now
It's not edited, this is soundboard audio. Something there isn't enough of from Ratt. There is so much low quality live content from Ratt, that when people here something good. They think is fake. What a shame.
@@MetalMaster101 Thanks for standing up for my quality of my videos, Rattmaster. Clearly some people are just ignorant and don't read the description, knowing this is not a complete show! Haha
この年はもうラットは落ち目
Way cool JR がRATTの迷走の始まり。でもいまだにRATTは好きで聴いてる。今年はアメリカの保険会社GeicoのCMに起用されてて嬉しい
LMAO, The greatest thing about Brittany Fox was how they completely aped Cinderella's wardrobe and released two singles that absolutely fucking DESTROY anything Tom Keifer ever wrote. And the videos were better too.
Those who didnt grow up in the 80s dont understand that Robbin Crosby(RIP) style complimented Warrens playing. Robin had the better riff in Way Cool Jr. What a great band this was.
