Watch RATT Perform In Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania

December 23, 2019

Fan-filmed video footage of RATT's December 21 concert at Penn's Peak in Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania can be seen below.

RATT's current lineup includes original members Stephen Pearcy (vocals) and Juan Croucier (bass),along with drummer Pete Holmes (BLACK 'N BLUE) and guitarists Jordan Ziff and Chris Sanders (BRITNY FOX, KNIGHT FURY).

We're shooting for some harder 'Ratt 'n' roll.'"
