On Wednesday Bobby Blotzer's Ratt Lose A Member was a top story. Here is the recap: (Classic Rock) Bobby Blotzer's Ratt have reportedly parted ways with guitarist Nicholas 'Blaze' Baum. The longtime drummer hints at an acrimonious split in a Facebook post which appears to have been removed.

Blotzer says (via Blabbermouth): "While we are shocked and saddened by the events that led up to his departure and do not agree with the manner and time frame in which he chose to let us know, in that only giving us only two days for his replacement, we all can live with his decision to move on with his career and wish him the best in the future in country music."

He adds: "Ratt will, with great integrity, rear up on its back legs with its head high and come out to Sturgis at the Buffalo Chip in front of 35,000 fans this Thursday then Montana Rockin' The Rivers festival, with 20,000 this Friday - kicking all kinds of ass as always.

"We know you understand that things don't always end up the way we'd like them to. But, know that we have high expectations and want that to translate to the stage with the best players as always." Read more - here.
