Wikipedia entry for Ratt's Lay It Down

We'll probably be laying down Lay It Down as well. Check out the wikipedia entry. (Wikipedia is an internet where people who read books and stuff corroborate for an online enpsychelopedia. ) I'd guess that Mulletude sums up "primal animalistic physical desire" perfectly, but I can't be sure because animalistic is a pretty big word.

"Lay It Down" is one of the most famous songs made by the glam metal band Ratt. Expressing a deep yearning for love in earnest, the song conveys its tender message of both the emotional trust invested into love as well as the more primal animalistic physical desire inherent to mankind.

Stephen Pearcy intentionally strayed from saccharin-sweet schmaltz while not crossing the line into sleaze. Musically, this song finds Ratt exhibiting the swagger of Aerosmith streamlined by the pop sensibilities of the Beatles. This versatility showed the world that they hadn't lost their touch while making their second album. "Lay It Down" was the first single released to promote their second album, Invasion of Your Privacy.

This song reached #40 on the Billboard Hot 100 during the summer of 1985. It continued Ratt's success in the world of rock music, which would not cease until the dawn of the following decade. The song was co-written by Ratt vocalist Stephen Pearcy, bassist Juan Croucier, and guitarists Robbin Crosby and Warren DeMartini.

New songs

For those of you who were at Prepps Park Ave Fest and remember anything about the day, we'll be returning with that set list plus killer new songs we wouldve played had our practice time not been limited by some of us being incinerated for not paying our child support.

Critter in the studio

Me & PJ was peppin' for our next gigs in my studio/cellar today. We heard a damned noise in the duck-work and realized we had a critter inhabitin' our studio. So we shook that thang out of the pipes and it turned out to be a bird! The bird was lookin' good to me and PJ but my ole lady, let's call her Yoko Vegetarian, wouldn't let us prep it up with Country Sweet sauce. She has a catch and release policy. So we let it go. It will probably end up in the grill of my 2-ton Doge Hemmy. Rock and Rool !

Mulletude returns

Weve been rockin Japan since our dabut at Prepps Park Ave Fest bash. They gave us so much money, we had to set most of it on fire. The only thing cooler than money is fire, so its all good. The wrath of Mulletude will return to the States Friday, February 9 at TF Browns in Batavia and Saturday, February 10 at Jimmy Macs in Rochester. You know it! Oh yeah.
