 Multi-Platinum ‘80s Rockers RATT will headline the 3rd Annual ‘80s Rock the Dam Fest on Saturday, July 25, 2020 at Beaver Dam Amphitheater. Lita Ford and BulletBoys (with all original members), round out the lineup for the annual festival that has quickly become a staple of the regional outdoor summer concert scene.

Beaver Dam Amp now offers Reserved Gold Circle tables, Reserved VIP seating in the lower arena, PIT tickets, and General Admission lawn seating.  Tickets on sale now beaverdamtourism.com/concerts-events.

RATT helped pioneer Hollywood’s legendary Sunset Strip sound and scene in the 1980’s. Created by lead singer songwriter Stephen Pearcy in 1982, the band’s debut album, “Out of the Cellar,” went over 3x Platinum.  It included the smash hit single “Round & Round,” “Back for More,” and “Wanted Man.” RATT has sold more than 18 million records worldwide. They continue to sell out venues and headline festivals.

Released on February 2, 1988 the “Lita” album boasted four charting hit singles. “Back to the Cave,” “Falling In and Out of Love,” along with the world wide mega hits “Kiss me Deadly,” nominated for the MTV Video Music Awards Best Female Video of the year.

The BulletBoys formed in 1988 at the very peak of the Los Angeles glam metal movement.  Their first album kept the rock and blues coming with the smash hit single “Smooth Up in Ya.” After a successful cover of the classic blues song, “For the Love of Money” The BulletBoys officially established themselves as the leaders of party rock. 

Don’t be fooled by this faux-family band!  They are all accomplished musicians putting their unique bluegrass spin on cover songs from any genre.  You’ll laugh and tap your foot to the hilarity and great music when they make their first visit to the Good Time Theater!  Make plans now, you be glad to did!
