From 1986-1992 The Cathouse was at the epicenter of the Hollywood Rock scene. Some of the biggest bands in rock would play unannounced shows at the Cathouse but it wasn't the performances by bands like Guns n Roses, Motorhead, Alice Cooper, Pearl Jam, Faster Pussycat, Black Crows (the list goes on) that put Cathouse on the map. It was the sleaze and debauchery, the raunch and roll. Riki Rachtman former host of MTV's Headbangers Ball owned the Cathouse. He opened it with his roommate Taime Downe from the band Faster Pussycat with the premise of getting free drinks and meeting girls. Riki enforced a no camera rule at the Cathouse so anything could and did happen. These stories have never been told......Until now Each episode of Cathouse Hollywood Riki recaps 1 night at the Cathouse and he recounts the night with a participant or witness to what took place that evening. His guest could be a a musician that sold 5 million records or the girl that worked the coat check. It doesn't matter at Riki Rachtman's World Famous Cathouse we were all Rock Stars

episode 2: Ep.2 Ratt's Stephen Pearcy goes way back w Riki Rachtman
The Cathouse was the most notorious rock n roll club in the 80's and 90's and RATT was one of the biggest rock bands to emerge from the Sunset Strip of Hollywood. They sold millions of records sold out stadiums across the globe but when vocalist Stephen Pearcy sits down with Riki Rachtman there are stories that you won't find on any bio. Stephens altercation with Axl Rose in the Cathouse DJ Booth, Stephen playing guitar for Motley Crue and Stephens idea of keeping the 80 Sunset Strip experience alive. What about that time that Stephen and Riki and a few other rock notables took over another 80's bands record release party. It's all here baby.
