Ratt- Drummer’s Back Does Him In

Original RATT drummer Bobby Blotzer, whose rights to use the band’s name was successfully challenged in court recently, has a hospital visit in his future.

He says, “I got this MRI last week. Having some bad crap coming to the roads end on my back… I’ve been getting epidural spine injections for six years… Now it’s surgery time. Lumbar number-five is collapsed and number-one is next. So, after the next show on March 18th in Fort Yates, North Dakota I’m in two days later. I’ll spare you the details of how they do this, but it’s pretty screwed up…”

Blotzer also says he will continue to tour as RATT in late June despite the court ruling.
