I’m completely in favor of the separation of Church and State. These two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death.

Blobby got denied a restraining order against Juan because the judge wasn't convinced either of them owned the trademark. Shit is getting even more interesting.

Good for Robbie to play bass in a ton of cool bands and play lots of songs. He's living the dream.

Re: Bobby Blotzer = piece of shit
It could be PRATT
or TWATT
or maybe SHATT
or Vince Neil will sing for Blotzer's band, it will be FATT
Slash on lead guitar, then it'll be HATT

Ay Psychobolia, this shoulda been posted HERE u idiot!
Blobster pwned by Croucier!
From Blabbmounth article today:
In his opposition to Blotzer's application for a temporary restraining order, Croucier wrote: "This action is part of an attempt by RATT's drummer Robert Blotzer to perpetrate a fraud in order to unilaterally take and use the trademark 'RATT' despite his being at most a partial owner of that mark.
"Juan Croucier is a founding member of RATT who co-wrote and performed on some of the band's biggest hits, sang lead vocal parts on RATT songs, (e.g., 'You Think You're Tough' and 'Lack Of Communication') and was the only member of the band that could sing many of the demanding harmony parts sung in the studio and all of the dominant high harmony parts during live shows. As such, he has been known as 'the Other Voice of RATT' and has been using that phrase on the cover page of juancroucier.com since 2007 or 2008. Mr. Croucier is a member the RATT Music Partnership with other band members that owns the publishing rights in the songs. Notably, Blotzer is not a member of the RATT Music partnership, as he was not involved in writing the band's hit songs — he just played drums."
Croucier continued: "While there were periods during RATT's history that certain Partners did not tour with the band, the 4 surviving original Partners kept coming back to RATT and ultimately played together through its final tour between 2012 and 2014, with the final show being January 24, 2014 at Wild Horse Pass Casino in Chandler, AZ. Following its last show, [singer Stephen] Pearcy took time to deal with the death of his twin sister and then went back to performing with his band 'Stephen Pearcy And His Ratt Bastards,' Blotzer formed a RATT tribute band called 'Bobby Blotzer's Ratt Experience,' and Croucier formed a new band called 'Ratt's Juan Croucier.' Unable to attract much interest in 'Bobby Blotzer's Ratt Experience,' Blotzer announced in September in 2015 that his new band would begin touring under the RATT name."
Juan added: "Croucier is using the Marks in a manner that is fair, appropriate, and not likely to cause consumer confusion. And as a co-owner of the Marks, Croucier is entitled to use the Marks exactly as he is using them.
"Croucier is entitled to say that he is RATT's Juan Croucier because he is. Not only is he a founding member of the band, a co-author of many of its hit songs, and a member of the RATT Music Partnership, but he played with the band during both its success through the 1980s and through its final 2012- 2014 tour. Mr. Croucier is thus still part of the band, is entitled to say that he is 'RATT's Juan Croucier,' and is entitled to tour as such.
"Croucier's use stands in stark contrast to the use of the Mark by Blotzer, who is improperly holding his new cover-band out as 'RATT.' While Mr. Blotzer may not like the competition from his former band-mate, that does not give him (let alone WBS) the right to stop Croucier from performing RATT songs that he wrote and has every right to perform under a band that he is in no way holding out as RATT."
Pregerson denied Blotzer's request on April 7, finding "given the uncertainty regarding ownership of the marks, Plaintiff has not demonstrated a likelihood of success on the merits."

So wouldn't this mean that every time Blobster's tribute band does ANOTHER sold out show, all of the members who own publishing rights--DeMartini, Croucier, Pearcy-- all get a cut of his cash or do you think he just pulls 10% out of each of the scabs pay for "unexpected tour expenses."?

I would say Warren gets a direct cut, but the others probably get whatever ASCAP pays like when a cover band gigs.
