Metal Anarchy

Bobby Blotzer has expressed interest in doing one more tour with RATT’s classic lineup. The drummer says he “need[s] it” for the “closure.”

Blotzer told The Hair Metal Guru the following when asked about a rumored tour with Mötley Crüe:

“I heard that from people. I think I saw something Nikki [Sixx] wrote [on social media] — I can’t remember — he’s going, ‘Yeah, we’re trying to get bands [to join us on tour]. We’re going round and round and round.’ And if that’s not a direct, like, ‘Get your shit together or fuck off’ to RATT, I don’t know what is. But that is a ticket that needs to happen, I think.

I don’t know, man. I’m not friends with those guys anymore — for no reason other than everybody’s gone different ways. But it would be insane to have MÖTLEY and RATT go out. That would be a great double bill, for sure. People would love to see that.”

He also agreed with the interviewer’s assessment that he wants “one more go-around”:

“Absolutely. Yeah, man. I need it. It’s closure. I wanna say goodbye to the fans [who gave us] so much for so long. I just — I wouldn’t say ‘celebrated’, but last week was 44 years since I joined RATT, and that’s when my son was born. He was one month old when I officially joined RATT March 12th of ’82.”
