What can we expect from RATT in regards to your tour plans?

We’re touring, we’ve got a bunch of shows going all through April and a bunch in May that are kind of fly-out stuff. Then, June 8th we leave for Europe for six weeks. Playin all these huge festivals all over the place over there. We’ll come back here and there’s a big tour coming out. Actually I’m sitting here talking to you and I’m hearing “Click, click”, it’s e-mails coming in and I’m waiting for news of the announcement of this tour that we’re going to be doing starting in July and into August. It’s going to be a big tour. And I just got this announcement! I can let you in on, the Scorpions are who we’re going to be touring with this year.

Is that going to be a U.S. tour?

Yes, a U.S. tour later with the Scorpions. But anyhow, once we go through summer here and Europe and then back here we’re going to go through South America, Australia, Japan and Canada.

Not really a big fan of Ratt But Scorpions is all i need for a great concert Need dates sooooon!!!!!

[Uli Jabs Schenker]

Ratt was with them last time in Chicago. I don't think they really brought many people into the show. Maybe a third band is planned.

Ratt is ok,But I can think of much better bands for the Scorpions to be on tour with!The current line up for the M3 show is kinda generic as well I'm just going for the Scorpions!!

Ratt's new song "Best of Me" sounds awsome; click below

Ratt will be special guest to the Scorpions on this tour with a few opening acts... the Scorpions USA tour starts June 17 and Bobby is saying they are starting in July..so my guess is that someone else maybe Cinderella will play the first couple weeks of the shows...

Ratt is a cool band IMO, I'd have a blast seeing them and Scorpions in one night!

[GlamSlam]

RATT N ROLL BABY

[shugarrckbx]

Scott I think Ratt is good as long with Cinderella,Kix is ok too,but alot of the other bands at say the M3 show are generic has beens Wish the Scorpions toured with Nugent or AC/DC!!

[Aleyah]

I will be there regardless but I was really hoping they might tour with Tesla, because they are supposed to do a tour this summer. Ratt I guess is ok but like I said, I'll be there anyway for the Scorps!!!!!

i agree Jobe..i was hoping for bands that were more respected in the music world...that is why i was hoping for Chickenfoot...if this is going to be the last tour of America i wanted them to go out on a high note...no hair rock bands..don't get me wrong i like Ratt more then Cinderella and Poison and those other bands that looked like girls instead of dudes..those bands were the reason rock died in 1992..everyone was tired of the cheesy ballads and the 5 foot high hair..it went from the music from the bands to how they looked..

The Scorpions have no one to blame but themself for having to settle for bands like Ratt,Cinderella and the other hair bands on this tour. They have not done a full tour of NA since 2002-2003..So they have fallen in popularity in our country and they are not respected like they were back in the 80's. So right now in 2010 the Scorpions are considered a hair band from the 80's..

Is this RATT you speak of the same as Rage Against the Machine?

nice try...NOPE!!!

[Retrograde]

I'd like Ratt better than a no-name.

Could be Ratt and Dokken. The Scorps know Don Dokken well.

no, this would be Ratm

but somehow strange, I thought I read somewhen to the beginning of the 90s Ratt disbanded.

[OnlyaMan]

Great news !!! I love RATT !!!!

Michael Schenker played live with RATT in the past.....

[Андрей]

by the way Ratt release new album too in April, and it will be great to see this monsters of rock both on stage(Dokken too).

it's looking more like Scorpions/Cinderella from June 17 to mid July and then it becomes Scorpions/Ratt/Cinderella from mid-July to mid-August..

[SchenkersGirl]

Great news !!! I love RATT !!!!

Michael Schenker played live with RATT in the past.....

Yes for a very brief time when Crosby got booted for abuse issues. But you know DeMartini and Peacry had to change thier draws every time after Michael played with them because his stellar playing made them mess themselves. It was a bit like a nuclear physicist having lunch with the 8th grade boys science club. Just saying. If Ratt opens for Scorps in my area and the tix are reserved I will arrive at the concert late, hoping to just catch the Scorps amd miss most of Ratt.
