In response to Bobby Blotzer’s previous remarks comparing Ratt to Mötley Crüe, Stephen Pearcy extended his well wishes for a potential reunion. However, Blotzer recently took the opportunity to clarify his intentions and confirm his unwavering dedication to the idea of a Ratt reunion. This revelation came during a conversation with Artists On Record’s Adika, shedding light on the ongoing discussions between Blotzer and Pearcy.
Blotzer revealed that he and Pearcy have been engaging in discussions about a potential Ratt reunion for the past two years. Surprised by Pearcy’s comments regarding his earlier statements on Mötley Crüe, Blotzer promptly reached out to Pearcy to seek clarity and understand the unexpected turn of events. His primary goal was to rectify any misunderstandings and provide a clear explanation of his comments.
During the conversation with Adika, Blotzer explained that his comments about Mötley Crüe were purely based on his personal opinion. He believes that the members of Mötley Crüe likely hold a similar opinion about Ratt. Blotzer expressed that the controversy surrounding his statements stemmed from a misinterpretation, emphasizing his deep respect for Mötley Crüe’s accomplished career. Given their ongoing discussions about a potential reunion, Blotzer expressed surprise at Pearcy’s remarks, which added to the overall confusion surrounding the situation.
In an exciting development, Blotzer also revealed that Warren De Martini, a former member of Ratt, has expressed willingness to engage in discussions about the reunion plan. With De Martini’s potential involvement, the prospect of a Ratt reunion becomes even more thrilling and promising for fans of the band.
He said:
“I did an interview three weeks ago, and my answer to that question is this: I had said, ‘Me and Stephen are on the phone all the time, we’re trying to orchestrate this reunion two years now.’ And I just saw an interview with him, I sent him a text and went, ‘Dude, you throw me out of the box, what is wrong with you?‘ [It was] because they were asking him ‘What do you think about Bobby saying that Ratt crushes Mötley?’ I mean, what I said on that as the question went.”
He continued:
“Troy said, ‘I was talking to Eddie Trunk, and he was telling me he thought that Ratt’s catalog blows Mötley Crüe away,’ and I said ‘It does, in my opinion,‘ and that ‘I’m sure Mötley says the same sh*t about us, but I respect them to a certain degree.’ I definitely respect their career, how can you not, right? So, that was blown out of proportion.
Then Stephen did an interview, and he was like, ‘Yeah, Bob’s out there trying to talk about a reunion; good luck!’ and I’m like, ‘Dude, I was just on the phone with you two days ago, trying to figure out how much movement we made in the last two months.’ So, I want a reunion. We want a reunion. Warren, I understand, wants to take a meeting. That’s all I can say about it. If it happens, it happens. If not, I don’t need a job; I’m fine.”

No ratt without warren demartini.
Exactly 💯, no warren no RATT
Amen to that!!! No Warren, No RATT
No Mick,
No Mötley!!!
In my opinion.
I totally agree with that’s like Queensryche without Geoff Tate, Chris Degarmo and Scott Rockenfeild
I’ve missed this have so much. Please make this happen.
Ratt has always been one of my favorite bands. Motley Crue I can take them or leave them called much rather see rat.
If it happens, PLEASE bring it to Minnesota!
I seen right back in the ’80s and I never seen him again and my God that would be the most awesome band to get back just for the reunion I’d pay good money to go see rat one more time love them
One more time With Everyone But no king of Course.Live to see it
Please make it happen! You’ve been my favorite band since I first heard your music. I even got to work at a concert setting up and taking down your stage in Charlotte, NC in July 1999 with Poison, LA Guns and Great White.
Please come to green bay Wisconsin!!!
Have seen original Ratt and about 3 different mixed vertion of Ratt and Steve Pearcys band (I’ll see him again in MA on Thurs) you guys need to do this. None of us are getting any younger!!!
It’s truly not Ratt without Robin.. but it would be fantastic to see Ratt live again! Best bet I’d go..unless ticket prices are rediculus.
Yes we need a Ratt reunion with the original members. Please copy the link below and sign the petition. Ratt N Roll 🤘🏻https://www.change.org/p/music-ratt-to-get-back-together
YES. MY KIDS ARE FANS 9 AND 17
2010s Infestation was an absolute killer album – love it. So many fans want this to happen – do it for the fans, do it for the music, do it for yourselves – DO IT FOR RATT !!🤘
I have seen Stephen several times as solo act and he crushes it everytime. I think it would be stellar to get a stadium tour together with Motley Crue, Def Leppard, Ratt and Poison or maybe some other bands to support. Not sure if Crue would agree to it but something I think should be pursued. Would be a great tribute tour to the “King” Robin Crosby!!!!
