Any discussion of the 80s and the Sunset Strip has to include one of the bands that paved the way for all who followed...RATT!!
Over 20 million albums sold, numerous multi-platinum albums...and videos in constant rotation on MTV, they were, along with Motley Crue, the KINGS of the Sunset Strip before "hair metal" was really a thing.
And now, unbelievably, RATT's debut album, "Out of the Cellar" is turning 40, and frontman Stephen Pearcy is heading out on the road to celebrate!! -

Former Sky Hi news editor Patrick Brower has a unique qualification to speak on the tale of Marvin Heemeyer's destructive rampage through the town of Granby CO in his self-built Killdozer...because not only had he covered Heemeyers battles with city government and more, he was also one of Heemeyer's targets...being inside the Sky Hi news building when Heemeyer drove the killdozer into it.
Some consider Heemeyer to be an anti-hero...some consider him to be a madman who was driven by revenge and inner demons...and we explored that with Patrick Brower this morning.
