Kars4Kids Meets The Good Rats


As Dr. Bristol points out, had they started in the age of the Internet and You Tube, the Good Rats would be a household name, but they arrived too soon. Or they were too good. Or too hairy. Too something. Peppi Marchello and The Good Rats headlined arena shows in the NorthEast and got airplay, but they just didn’t explode like they deserved to. No one I know can figure it out. Everyone in NJ, NY--every Met fan, Yankees fans, Giants fan--was a complete Rathead. Anyone who saw them play was hooked forever.

But the old, original Good Rats are still alive and well, still playing reunion shows and making people crazy. And Peppi Marchello and his new Good Rats are still knocking people out as they make the rounds at local clubs.

Peppi and the boys have also completed a third video commercial to promote the jingle contest at Kars4Kids.org Kars4Kids (aka Kars for Kids) the premier car-donation service with the jingle everyone knows ("1-877-kars-4-kids...K A R S cars for kids... donate your car today") is giving away guitars, cash, and a home theatre system. Check it out. And don't miss any of Peppi's commercials!
