If you're a RATT fan—stop what you're doing. This is BIG.

Stephen Pearcy and Warren DeMartini just played together at Mohegan Sun Casino, and it’s the first time in YEARS. In this video, Robert John Hadfield and Gary Casella break down the story, the all-star backup lineup, and what this could mean for a potential RATT reunion.

We dive into:
The band’s classic sound and how they held up live
Who’s joining them on stage (Carlos Cavazo from Quiet Riot, Matt Thorne from Rough Cutt, and Blas Elias from Slaughter 👀)
Legal tangles over the RATT name
A little drummer love for Bobby Blotzer
And why YOU might want to catch one of their upcoming shows
I also want to know from all of you: ▶️ Would YOU go to a reunion tour? ▶️ Have you seen any of the recent performances online? ▶️ What are YOUR favorite RATT songs?
