Unless his stage presence is real bad he is a perfect fit for QR.

Out of all respect to John Torra yes he is a good singer. But to complete the package he has to get off eating bread, pasta, and rice. And start riding a mountain bike or fitness bike 15 miles every 2 days. In all seriousness that's what I personally do to keep the weight down. Torra can sing the part, but he has to look the part.

QR needs to sign him up ASAP. Kid is incredible. I saw Lace many times at Lamorz back in the day. Father did a good job with the kid.

I can’t remember if I ever watched an hour plus video in one sitting. Guru, you had a “proud father” look about you during this. I would love to see these guys hook up with someone on a national tour. When you speak to him again, mention the Epic Event Center in Green Bay. A lot of the veteran bands love playing there. It’s a super nice club that holds 2100. I hope to be enjoying John/Fire and Ice for many years to come.

Good interview. Great to see him take the high road with Jizzy and let the music do the talkin. Alsp noticed all the first generation hair, sleaze, glam rocker bandmates come out and post and support.That alone is cool and exciting and will tell a tale

80s metal us the best,use your voice now it won't be there forever as you see with the leads of the 80"s

Although the resemblance is undeniable, we can confirm this is not Johnny the cd guy. 👍

Great interview…I really like this dude! QR should definitely give him a shot…he impressed the shit out of me with rhe QR songs! Awesome that u got him on! Take care and Rock On brother🤘

Shocked that QR hasn't already reached out to John. What in the Hell are they waiting for? He may not look like the typical skinny frontman, but it works for him in a way that makes people really want to root for him and see him succeed.

John start a Youtube channel and go to clubs and show other 80s bands playing live. Be a DJ, you have been given this recognition to grab the future. Grow your audience, grow your name, grow the 80s. Its a new era and it needs to be promoted and exposed so it can grow.

I just ordered his cd if anybody wants one it’s on band camp for 10 bux!

Definitely looks like he can sing. Truly a great voice. Didnt know Fire and Ice so i went and heard the songs….id go join Quiet Riot in a heart beat mate.

Torra is going to blow out his voice in two years like Arnel Pineda 😂

He's definitely got something. I hope this is a beginning for him. He looks exactly like a friend i had in high school in the late 80's who was in a band with the blond streak and all.

What a wonderful kid. His passion for music comes out very quickly. So sad he won't have the opportunities our generation had back in the 80's. I wish this kid all the luck in the world. This kid made me smile.
