I took my kids to see Night Ranger at Bigg's Army Air Field in the early 90's. Brad Gillis motioned my 7 year old son to hold his hand up and open. Then (I still to this day don't know how) flicked his guitar pick from 20 feet away right into my sons hand!! And right there and then, he created a new Night Ranger and Brad Gillis Super Fan!

Went to this show with my wife and friends of ours. Had a fantastic time, Night Ranger puts on a great show.

My wife and I were there. Awesome show. Hadn’t seen them live since 1985 when I was 15 years old. Jack Blades is 70 but still is a kid at heart.

Jack is 70? Unreal! Awesome to see him still rockin out!

My favorite guitarist of all time - Brad Gillis. My favorite bass player - Jack Blades. Yes Kelly, Eric & Keri are awesome. They're keeping us Rockin' in America after 40+ years. Loved them the day my dad bought me Dawn Patrol. My youngest is now 19 and she's a Night Ranger. It's a family affair and we love you guys!

Jack Blades out there rockin' it at 70 years old.Love it.

Brad is so underrated as a guitar player. He is still one of my favorite guitar players of all time

Love seeing them still sounding great after all these years.

They still sound and look GREAT!!! 💪💪

Jack Blades still sounds great. Poor Kelly, though…”Sentimental Street” and “Goodbye” are my 2 favorite NR songs, but that was tough to listen to. Wish Jack could take over lead on all of them. Still great to see them. Thanks so much for sharing ✌🏼

I understand where you're coming from, and I wish in a perfect world they can play the songs Kelly sings lead on at the beginning of the show before he gets hot and sweaty because you know that makes you hoarse. But anyway he is the oldest member and has the most physically demanding job

1st concert ever, Night Ranger 1982 Dawn Patrol tour

Enjoyed them in the 80s Really really really liked Brad with Ozzy live album, awesome guitar player who filled in for recently deseased Randy Rhodes at the time, gave me big respect towards him

Great video! These guys are great, I always catch them when they pass through town. Awesome show!! Thanks for sharing!

I remember Sister Christian so well in the 80's on MTV; and You Can Still Rock in America. Thought they basically broke up to form Damn Yankees with Ted Nugent in late 80's. No shit. Night Ranger still going strong and Damn Yankees not so much (googled). NR rocked more than I heavy(?) metal realized.
