| Well, I'm not a big fan of their later stuff (they seem to be approaching
'Europe' territory - ugh!), but Jeff Watson and Brad Gillis are on the
best one-two punches in the business! These guys are AWESOME!
For a starter, listen to "Rock in America", and Jeff Watson's hammer-ons.
Phew!
When are these guys gonna tour? I remember they played the Orpheum a few
years back, but that's it. Anybody hear of any upcoming dates?

My old band actually won a lip-synch (what the
hell . . .) in a *DANCE* club with Don't Tell
Me You Love Me! (We tried Still Rock in America
the week before, but it didn't quite make it).

According to Metal Edge (copied without permission)
...Jack Blades isn't shedding any tears over the demise
of Night Ranger - he's got a new band, called Damn
Yankees, with Ted Nugent and Tommy Shaw. "It's like we've
been together for 10 years. I'm real excited about it,"
enthused Jack, who hopes to have a record out by year's
end.

I'm not sure, it doesn't say. It does say that the other
members of the band are pursuing other projects as well.

| this is jim corrigan from south queensferry in scotland(acrossthe big
pond)i am also a nightranger fan.i saw the band supporting foreigner
in edinburugh a couple of years ago and have been hooked ever since.
best songs for my lugholes are dont tell me,eddies comin out,passion
play,still rock in america,let him run,big life.
the quality of musicianship is outstanding (a rare thing these days)
unfortunatly the band have broke from the record company,so i hope
thay make a speedy return.

Has anyone heard a rumor that Night Ranger are supposed
to get back together next summer (?) for a "reunion"
tour?? Personally, I didn't think they were quite
popular enough to have a reunion tour but that's another
story.
Supposedly a guy my girlfriend knows is going to take
the place of Jack Blades (?) ...which, to me, sort of
defeats the purpose of a 'reunion' but, hey, what do
I know? (8

What's the guitarist with the long blonde hair doing these days?
I forget the name of the song, but doesn't he do an eight finger
lead? I thought so when I heard it, then saw the video. Amazing!

Blades is the bassist, I'm talking about the other guitarist that
worked with Brad Gillis.

just goes to show that talent will get you nowhere these days.

compilation album. I remember thinking that Morse smoked him bad...

RE: .18/.19
Yup, I was just going to mention that, before I saw that Greg
had beat me to it.
Even though Morse is alot better, Jeff Watson is no slouch.
And there is some GREAT guitar work in the first couple Night
Ranger albums.

95% of it performed by Brad Gillis! I liked his playing on the early
Night Ranger material quite a lot. Watson's sounded very generic to
me, not much feeling in it. I could care less he played it with some 8
finger tapping technique or whether it played it by hammering on with
his butt cheeks, I didn't like what he played.

| I'm glad someone posted something in this note - made me grab the `Dawn
Patrol' album and give it a spin last night. Even though `Don't Tell
Me You Love Me' got completely worn out on radio and MTV, it's still a
monster of a tune. One of my old bands used to cover that one - what a
blast standing on top of the PA stacks doin' the tappin' stuff ! 8^)

Oh yeah ! I was trying to remember the title of that album
but came up with brain lock. It is a good album.
`Halfway To the Sun' is a cooker !

"Don't Tell Me You Love Me"
"Rumors in the Air"
"You Can Still Rock in America"
are my favorites from these guys. I think there's a couple of
others, but I don't remember them right at the moment.

"Play Rough" smoked my stereo. Then "Eddie's Coming Out Tonight"
nuked it!!!
Jeff Watson did a song with Alan Holdsworth for GFTPM compilation.
Kinda disappointment, tho...
