How can anyone not like Night Ranger?!


Two lead singers, they can rock hard or do killer ballads, Jack Blades is cute as a puppy dog - What's not to love?!


And Riggs, regarding your comment about them being good in the 80's - They still are!  Again, I recommend you pick up one of their more recent albums & check it out.

You know, I liked them right into the mid 90's when very few others did.

Some of my favorite songs by them are rarrely played ballads like HEARTS AWAY and RESTLESS KIND.

They started losing me in the mid 90's though.

How much of that original band is still together LS?

Brad Gillis, Jeff Watson, Jack Blades & Kelly Keagy.

I think the people who don't like Night Ranger probably had Sister Christian shoved down their throats...

For the record, I love Night Ranger.

a couple years ago I was driving around and saw someone turned their Ford Ranger Pick Up truck into a "Night Ranger" Ford Pick Up truck. Custom Plates, band logo on the doors, matching bumper stickers. Even the little metal body plates said Night Ranger instead of Ford Ranger. And yes they were blairing Sister Christian. I laughed so hard I almost had to pull over!

Awww man, I'd love to have seen that!

I gotta start carrying my camera with me so if I ever DO see something like that I could post it on the site.

That's a dedicated fan!

I always thought the dueling/ double guitar solos in Don't Tell Me You Love Me were pretty tight.

You know, I get that way too when a song is way overplayed, but it almost always returns to favor with me after a few years.

I was sick of that song back in the day, but I love it again now. Plus, it's one of those songs ANYONE can sing along to, which goes a long way toward being great in my book.

Would MZ or WebGuy let me send her/him a photo via e-mail?

Oh, OK - Coming your way.


My Rule #1:  ALWAYS have a camera with you.  This was taken in the parking lot at the Night Ranger show I went to back in 2004.  (I've also been known to hang out of car windows at fast speeds to get pictures like this, though.)
