Some of the biggest bands in rock and roll not only made Cathouse there home but they would play unannounced shows. Guns n Roses, Alice Cooper, Pearl Jam,Megadeth The list is impressive but it was the raunch ,roll, sleaze and debauchery that happened at the Cathouse that made this club LEGEND. With a no camera policy most of the Tales from the Cathouse were never told. UNTIL NOW Each episode Riki takes us back not only to the Cathouse but outside of its confines to an era of Ranch and Roll, Sleaze and Deabuchery. A rock n roll history lesson not told by reporters but by those that truly experienced it . Some of the biggest names of Rock n Roll called Cathouse home and they are doing the same thing on this podcast One Episode might be a band that sold millions of records or the girl that worked the coat check. It didn't matter at the Cathouse we were all rock stars
