Vamp’d Vegas once again opens its doors for an unbelievable night of music. The crowd already gathered is intently waiting as band number one of four prepares with a sound check. Preempting is First Class Trash, a Vegas hometown band, followed by Cage9 from Los Angeles. The powerhouse trio from Perth Western Australia takes the stage as band number three of the night and the night ends with Mad Life also from Los Angeles.
Ragdoll is Leon Todd (guitar), Cam Barrett (drums) and Ryan Rafferty (Bass/Lead Vocals). Walking around backstage as they set up for their eight song set, Rafferty has his massive mane tied on top of his head and is barefoot. Todd is ‘pre-shredding’ as Barrett re-arranges the drum kit. Rafferty prepares his space silently and intently; the energy is vibrant and sovereign. The deep purple velvet curtain is opened and Ragdoll begins the night with Tell Me. The word powerhouse is an understatement in describing the band. Todd packs sound and technique that one would rival any four or five piece band; no need for a touring guitarist to fill in any holes or missing riffs as Todd covers it all with ease and mastery. Barrett’s style on the kit is much different to what is normally heard today as the back beat of a band; beats that are reminiscent of 70’s rock mixed with his form and fierceness. Rafferty’s vocal range is deep, efficacious, ariose and exactly what compliments the music made by the trio.
