Dick Clark Interviews Night Ranger on American Bandstand 1984

[@TheDefeatest]

class act Mr Clark is. I love how he talks to and makes sure the whole band is given time and a chance to talk. That's how you do it.

[@rokkenrobyn9767]

Fitz is very underrated. Love him!!

[@rambo8218]

What a great band .. their music is forevermore woven into the fabric of my life.

[@briangingras5886]

Right on one of my favorite bands Night Ranger

[@bossfan49]

I've been watching some of these AB videos. It's great to see someone like Dick Clark be so welcoming and respectful to these "young" guys. He asks them all legit questions...not just stupid chit chat. He asks Jack to introduce all of them and when he comes back around to aske them a question, he says their NAMES. That is a professional skill. I would have forgotten their names the split second they went past my ears.

this band was on fire in 83 and blew everyone away

[@yeahright302]

still doing great in 2020

[@jholdener44624911]

MTV and Sammy Hagar made this band on fire

[@terrywade8361]

I was Kelly's drum tech then. We were there with Ronnie Milsap. Backstage I was tuning Beans kit. Hit the snare and Ronnie almost had a stroke. I didn't know he was blind.

[@barismomalways]

40 years and going strong!! Love them so much!!

[@lisamerrill1568]

That was the best line up of this band!

[@stevestringer7351]

Man. This takes me back.

[@DaveRucci]

Dammit now I wanna see them play.

[@jafl1971]

I'm from Puerto Rico and a big Night Ranger fan since 1983. But in 1984 I never knew that Night Ranger been in PR. The first concert was on 1983 and then returned on 1986

[@jamiemiles4624]

That keyboard rig is somewhat reminiscent of Doug Johnson’s console of Loverboy and Geddy Lee’s of Rush

[@lisamerrill1568]

This is the Night Ranger I remember in seeing them in 1983 at the Manteca Waterslides concert!

[@55mikeymikey]

anywhere out there where we can see the performance before this interview?

[@jsb_music]

1:47 the most screentime Fitz ever had. 10/10.

[@GamingwithKandA]

I've been hooked on Night Ranger since 1983. Got to talk to the guys (minus Fitz) several times, and got some autographs too! BTW, the reason Fitz wasn't there, was because he was playing backstage keyboards for Van Halen.

[@hazor777]

They should do an original lineup tour , and ONLY IF every original member is included, that means Fitz playing with them

[@dcarr70]

Agreed. I would like to see Jeff and Fitz tour with them just one more time.

[@krisscanlon4051]

Fitz!

[@tinotse8964]

Enjoy both their Songs. Sister Christian & Don't Tell Me You Love Me

[@drgrlitz]

Tony Carey opened for Night Ranger on this tour. Boy, did he 'blow'(★) his chances...

[@ryangioia2358]

I didn't know that Will Ferrell played drums with these guys.

[@ladystrange7791]

🤣🤣🤣

[@grapefruitm00n]

He doesn't. Instead he plays with Red Hot Chili Peppers

[@kaori_kanzaki]

That bearded hipster guy -time- travelled from 2015.

[@TheReubenKincaid]

The Keyboard Player Fitz looked a bit weird in 1984 (remembering 84) lol. So you’re correct

[@kaori_kanzaki]

@@TheReubenKincaid actually he unintentionally invented the hipster fashion 😂

[@rokkenrobyn9767]

Fitz has always been ahead of his time

[@mrabrasive51]

he smoked like a chimney and swore like a drunk sailor off camera!

[@davewollenberg1518]

Who was that, that did that?

[@rossapolis]

Jack Blades is SHORT! Dick Clark was 5'8" and he's about 3-4" taller than him. Granted he's wearing shoes with a slight heel, but Jack is still short.

[@jafl1971]

The only place they visited outside the USA was Japan. But what happened with Europe, Canada, Mexico, South America??

[@hevyonez97]

Those came most likely during the year and the next...they were still fresh on the scene at the time, it does take a while to visit most of these places while on the road....

[@wildestcowboy2668]

I loved these doped headed drunks

[@chochonnga]

日本について何か言ってるね。翻訳きぼん

[@scout3058]

That Japanese was just awful. ニッポンでここまでよろしくお願いします
