Amazing performance! Carlos Cavazo!! one of the best guitarist that's still alive...simply awesome...😤

[@lorenzoferrera3837]

This band was great live. Small crowd because in 1995 it wasn’t cool to be listening to metal bands anymore. I personally went and saw all the shows as specially when QR came to town. Carlos Cavazo is and will always be one of the greats on guitar, just a fantastic player that can shred. As far as him playing rhythm for Ratt, that wasn’t the case. Check out 2010s Ratt Infestation album. Track #1 is written by Carlos Cavazo and the solo is one Cavazos best! He played lead guitar plenty with Ratt, he of course had to share the leads with Warren who lets face it, is the face of Ratt when it comes to guitar. Carlos is an underrated guitarist period. He’s right up there with DeMartini, Lynch etc.

[@clubba1264]

Your exactly right!! Thats why Kevin is almost timid even though he sounds amazing. Alot of bands went thru this...trying to be heavier than they used to be. David Gahan from Depech Mode went thru a midlife crisis because of the grunge days. If they only knew we loved them for what they were 😊

[@antimurphy8212]

@@clubba1264 -- Yeah but the Down to the Bone album is heavy but has a ton of 80s style songs on it. I don't think they were trying to be heavier. Sometimes it just happens.

[@BEST-rl7yu]

We remember those heroes of the rock scene of the 70s --- 90s - Randy Rhoаds, Kevin DuBrow and Frankie Banali, who are no longer with us (real rock icons, how long ago it was), but their group Quiet Riot and music 🎶 for centuries and gives inspiration and energizes.

Man Kevin kept his voice strong all the way to to his death.

[@stanleymcvay9283]

Can't believe I missed a tasty concert like this-especially since it was my younger years.

[@TrexxSFV]

I may sound crazy but this is probably better than their 80's concerts. They're pure heavy here, how they should've been in their peak popularity years.

[@antimurphy8212]

It's excellent but no Rudy here.

[@PanHoover882]

⁠@@antimurphy8212there was a concert dvd with the full Metal Health lineup performing at “Gazzarri’s” (then called Key Club) in LA in 2002. Freaking awesome show! I honestly wish I lived in 2002 to see them live with that lineup.

[@AlbertMoyerJr]

I was at this show! Man it was great! Frankie Banali was always a drumming inspiration for me.

[@TX123412]

Not sure how I missed this show. Saw them a couple years before at Hurricane Alley off Ella in Houston. Was this place packed out, what was the audience capacity?

[@AlbertMoyerJr]

Not sure of capacity but I would say a couple of thousand. It was about the size of House Of Blues downtown.@@TX123412

[@spiralstorm616]

Such a great show. Love the Down To The Bone album Frankie's drumming on those songs is amazing. Great show with those songs mixed in with previous material

[@michaelhenderson5946]

I saw this show a few weeks earlier in Albuquerque. I vividly recall Kevin Dubrow saying "welcome to a night of politically incorrect music". 😎

[@kevinnorcross9308]

[@teecuzbruh4058]

That Down To the Bone record was a good one. I wonder if those are Carlo's Jose Arredondo modified Marshall heads. Those thing have been worth big money for some time. And I think he had quite a few of 'em. EDIT : Looking at the stacks, they are definitely hot-rodded Marshall heads, I mean, listen to that guitar sound, Carlo's unique guitar sound that only could have been provided by those Jose heads

[@ChannelEleven59]

I still don't understand how Carlo can be satisfied playing rhythm guitar in RATT.

[@j.c.mhardcoremetalfan413]

ChannelEleven59 agree

[@DeadShred9]

@ChannelElven59 , I have asked myself this question many times . Im sure the Ratt gigs pays better but Carlos is a Lynch or DeMartini level Guitarist and another band with him as the lead would be great to hear imo. QR was my first Metal concert at The Summit in H-Town in 84 I was 18 or 19 cant remember lol But as a Guitarist for over 30 + plus yrs I recognized his abilities from early on in his career . Like to see him in a Super Group line up as Lead /Rhythm with say Traci Guns or someone that level ! Maybe we should Petition him lmfao ..

[@jorgepaul5049]

Music is music and be rythm is a new adventure for him and he did the Robbin Crosby solos..

[@doranamatto4204]

Probably because it's more satisfying than working at Circle K.

[@patrickreeves4650]

what a sign of the times. a band that killed live, playing to maybe 75 people in a place that held 1000. thanks a lot alternative/grunge. down to the bone had the coolest cover for an album....didn't care much the album itself though.
