Josh Todd of Buckcherry is up for the challenge of the Australian tour with Rose Tattoo but says he was a later-comer to discovering The Tatts.
Josh tells Noise11.com, “I want to be honest. I wasn’t because I’m a Southern California boy, born and raised. Surf-boarded, skate-boarded in my early childhood. I was listening to punk rock records for a long time. I listened to independent records – The Subhumans, GBH, Minor Threat, Social Distortion, bands like that. I didn’t get into mainstream rock until I was 17 and the first records I heard were (AC/DC) ‘Back In Back’, Led Zeppelin, Metallica, The Cult. That being said I didn’t even know who they were until I heard that cover by Guns ‘N Roses (Nice Boys) and then I got into who they were”.
Josh says Buckcherry guitarist Billy Rose is a huge Rose Tattoo fan, “Billy, our guitar player, is a huge fan of them and knows them well. I’m just stoked. I got into them later and I know their history and I know its going to be a lot of fun”.

We talked a bit about ex-AC/DC bass player Mark Evans currently being a member of Rose Tattoo but I have since been informed Mark has left The Tatts once more and Steve King will be on this tour.
