Poison Play First Show in Four Years at Stadium Tour: Set List, Video

Poison  helped launch the long-delayed Stadium Tour — an all-star event also featuring Motley Crue , Def Leppard  and  Joan Jett  — Thursday in Atlanta, marking the band’s first concert in nearly four years .

They started their set with "Look What the Cat Dragged In," the title track from the Bret Michaels -fronted group's 1986 debut album . From there, the hits kept coming, with Poison barely catching their collective breath as they rolled from one song into the next. Highlights included renditions of such classic tunes as "Talk Dirty to Me," "Your Mama Don't Dance," "Unskinny Bop," "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" and "Nothin' But a Good Time."

Perhaps the biggest moment came roughly halfway through Poison's set. Guitarist C.C. DeVille delivered an incendiary solo while covering Van Halen 's famous instrumental tune "Eruption," sending the crowd into a frenzy.

See Poison's full set list and fan-shot video below.

The Stadium Tour was originally booked for summer 2020 but was postponed and then postponed again due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The trek continues June 18 in Miami and currently wraps Sept. 9 in Las Vegas.

Poison's most recent studio album, 2007’s Poison’d! , featured cover versions of songs by David Bowie , Sweet , Alice Cooper , Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers , the Who and the Rolling Stones , among others. Since then, Michaels has largely focused on his solo career, including his 2020 memoir , Bret Michaels: Auto-Scrap-ography Volume 1: My Life in Pictures & Stories .

Poison is an American glam metal band formed by Bret Michaels, Matt Smith, Bobby Dall, and Rikki Rockett, from Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, U.S.

Originally performing under the moniker Paris in their hometown of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, the band moved to Los Angeles, California in 1984 and changed their name to Poison. Lead singer Bret Michaels, bassist Bobby Dall, and drummer Rikki Rockett, held auditions for a lead guitarist and soon after invited C.C. Deville to fill the role. Poison then developed a knack for creatively and thoroughly promoting their gigs and soon garnered a sizeable following, which led the band to sign with Enigma Records in 1986.

The same year Poison released their breakthrough album “Look What the Cat Dragged In” which introduced the band’s brand of glamorous metal androgyny. Aided by the single “Talk Dirty to Me” and “I Won’t Forget You”, the album went on to sell over two million copies. With the release of their sophomore album “Open Up & Say…Ahhh!” Poison were propelled to the level of super-stardom topped only by the likes of Bon Jovi and Def Leppard. The album spawned the hits “Fallen Angel”, “Nothin’ But a Good Time” and the band’s first No. One Hit, “Every Rose Has Its Thorn”.

The release of their subsequent album “Flesh and Blood” and resulting tour however marked a decline for the band. After the live album “Swallow This Live” in 1991, Poison parted ways with C.C. Deville who was replaced by the 21 year old Richie Kotzen. The new guitarist only stayed for one album, however, 1993’s “Native Tongue” after it was revealed he had begun an illicit relationship with drummer Rockett’s fiancé. A compilation album entitled “Greatest Hits: 1986-1996” was issued in 1996, shortly after which Deville returned to the group and Poison embarked on a successful arena reunion tour of 1999.

“Crack a Smile” was released in 2000, followed by “Power to the People” a mix of new and live songs from the reunion tour. Following the release of the disappointing “Hollyweird” in 2002, Deville appeared in VH1’s “The Surreal Life” and Michaels hosted his own dating show “Rock of Love with Bret Michaels”. It wasn’t until 2006 that Poison reconvened to celebrate their 20th anniversary, with a nationwide tour and a new greatest hits box-set collection. The album “The Best of Posion: 20 Years of Rock”, aided by Michaels’ new reality TV status, rose to the Top 20 of the Billboard 200, as did its successor “Poison’d!” in 2007.

Live reviews

Pop Evil, Cheap Trick & Poison put on an absolutely amazing show but I am completely disenchanted with the promoters, venue and ticket sellers.

I purchased 200 level seats in row L @ $135/ticket for my wife and I via an American Express Presale, months in advance of the show.

While waiting for the gates to open at Ontario Place/Budweiser Stage, the usual assortment of scalpers were hanging around the front gates when we heard one of them offering half-price tickets to the show. I pulled out my phone and checked Live Nation and Ticketmaster's web sites to find that they were offering, amongst others, tickets two rows in front of our seats for $83.75. These were not resale tickets, and there were several of them.

To make matters worse, while standing in line at one of the food trucks, I overheard several people saying how fortunate they were that their $20 lawn tickets had been upgraded for FREE and yup....they were sitting two rows in front of us when the show started.

Apparently the show had not sold well, so the venue decided to close the lawn area and give everyone with $20 lawn tickets a free upgrade. Lucky for them, but what about those of us who paid full price for the tickets months in advance? Should we not have been offered a partial refund, or at the very least a gift certificate?

I understand that Labatt's and Live Nation (who also happens to own Ticketmaster) own the venue which was recently renamed from Molson Amphitheatre to Budweiser Stage and this was certainly not our first trip to this venue, but it was our first trip to the venue under it's new name.

As I said when I started this, we LOVED the show he bands put on, but if the promoters/venue/ticket sellers are going to continue this practice of shafting those of us who purchase tickets early, we will definitely thing twice before buying tickets to other shows.

We've typically attend 3-5 shows each summer and have definitely noticed a drop in attendance at most shows over the last couple of years. Despite the fact that music lovers will pay dearly to see their favourite bands, there comes a point where there are only so many dollars to go around. I realize that many bands demand higher compensation when touring, but perhaps the drop in attendance is directly related to the ticket prices for shows of late.

There have been several shows that we would love to have seen, but not even folks like us who have been life-long fans of certain bands can't afford $200-$300 for a ticket to see a band who's last hit record was 20-30 years ago.

If the venue's aren't selling out, maybe the ticket prices are too high......

Cheap Trick is my wife's all time favourite band and we've seen them every year for the past 20 years when they've passed through town, but for the price we paid this year, and then to find out that had we waited until the last minute, or purchased the cheap lawn seats and gotten a free upgrade to better seats, we definitely feel cheated this year and will almost certainly take our chances by waiting until the day of, or buying cheap lawn seats if they come through town again next year. Who knows, we may actually end up with better seats than someone else who shows their support for a band by buying tickets early...

If there’s such a thing as glam metal standards, does it really get any more classic than ‘Every Rose Has Its Thorn’? Poison have certainly earned themselves a place amongst the genuine titans of the genre, and like a handful of their contemporaries (I’m looking at you, Motley Crue), they’ve defied years of debauchery and excess and remain a going concern today. More recently, though, there’s every chance that the wider public are more familiar with frontman Bret Michaels for the slew of appearances that he’s made on reality TV shows - he won the third series of Celebrity Apprentice - or his recent health issues that put his life on the line and the band’s future in serious doubt. Happily, though, Michaels recovered, and Poison hit the road in the summer of 2011 for a tour with the Crue, as well as New York Dolls. The sets were typically silly affairs - big hair, big guitar solos and big, big volume and had Michaels rolling back the years, showcasing a voice that’s stood up remarkably well to the ravages of a rock n’ roll lifestyle. The band have yet to make it back to the UK since Michaels’ recovery, but the fact that Motley Crue still play arenas over here should demonstrate that there’s plenty of demand for this kind of show; it can only be a matter of time.

American rock outfit Poison really do set the bar high in the field of glam metal. Innovators of their time, the band who have been working for over thirty years amassed a huge following during their heyday and many of those fans still attend their shows to this day.

Having achieved a great deal of commercial success in the 80's and 90's, the band now tends to play a setlist featuring a selection of their hits as well as their own personal favourite material to showcase their abilities. The gig sways between these two mentalities, the crowd are loudly singing along to 'Unskinny Bop' before clapping along intently to coax on the musicians as they perform complex guitar and drum solos.

The biggest cheer of the evening is reserved for the encore of 'Every Rose Has Its Thorn' and 'Nothing But A Good Time' which both include extended instrumentals and those recognisable anthemic choruses. Despite the band no longer being a frequenter of the charts, their iconic glam rock status remains unchallenged.

Awesome show!! I have seen a lot of concerts from 1980 forward, in all this time I have never seen a frontman so full of energy and get the crowd into the show the way Bret Michaels did! He is by far the best frontman I have seen. The band sounded great and the lighting show was fantastic. Tesla opened the show and the crowd remained sitting most of the show but when Bret came on stage everyone was standing and remained so all night. All in all it was a magnificent high energy show and I would go again!

The Poison,Cheap Trick & Pop Evil NJ show was amazing. They were all energetic and had great stage presence. All front men were great!Since this is a Poison review, I give them a 100%. From the opening flames, commentary,tribute dancing and singing.. til the very end,completely impressed. Hope they will continue to rock for many more years to come!

This band is amazing. I am a true fan and will always be. Win I was in high school back in 1989 my best friend had me listen to them. Since then he has past away. Your songs bring him back for just a short while. Thank you for this great gift that you share with us. Your friend and brother. Shane Cynova.

I’m so happy that Poison came back to UTAH, 5/22/18 @ USANA! We had so much fun. We love you guys so much. Please come back soon. Thank you so much USANA! Please keep the bands coming and thank you for reasonable prices. Safe Travels and Rock On..

Great as always. 4th time seeing them. Bret never disappoints. And hearing him talk about veterans and people serving in the military really touches my heart, as my son is on his third deployment for the Air Force.

Bret Michaels Confirms POISON Will Announce Massive Tour Featuring ‘POISON’s Greatest Hits’

• February 18, 2024
• 2 minute read

During a recent appearance on SiriusXM’s “Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk” on February 15, Bret Michaels, still in the midst of promoting his “Parti-Gras” solo tour, entertained the idea of the possibility of POISON hitting the road again, this time with a lineup featuring two, three, or even four other major acts, akin to their participation in the 2022 “The Stadium Tour”. Michaels expressed his enthusiasm for such a prospect, stating:

“One million percent. I was grateful to be out there again. With MÖTLEY [CRÜE] and [DEF] LEPPARD and to be out there with Joan [Jett], I one thousand percent see that [kind of thing happening again].”

The veteran musician, now 60, emphasized the significance of his POISON bandmates — C.C. [DeVille] on guitar, Bobby [Dall] on bass, and Rikki [Rockett] on drums — in his musical journey. However, he also highlighted the unique energy and camaraderie of his solo band, including members like Pete Evick, Dean “The Machine” Cramer, and others, expressing how they all share the same passion for performance.

Looking ahead to the potential revival of POISON on tour, Michaels projected into the future, foreseeing the band hitting the road again in 2025 or 2026, with a lineup featuring all the classic POISON hits. He envisions integrating the POISON reunion into the “Parti-Gras” experience, bringing together numerous iconic bands for an unforgettable celebration of rock music:

“I think in 2025, 2026, one million percent. We’re gonna bring all the POISON greatest-hits reunion and make it part of what ‘Parti-Gras’ is. We’ll make it the POISON reunion ‘Parti-Gras’ and bring a lot of great bands and just, without a doubt, unleash all those POISON greatest hits.”

THE HALO EFFECT Announces 2025 European Tour With PAIN

THE HALO EFFECT , the new project featuring five former members of the Swedish metal band IN FLAMES — Jesper Strömblad (guitar), Daniel Svensson (drums), Peter Iwers (bass), Niclas Engelin (guitar) and Mikael Stanne (vocals) — has announced its first headlining tour of Europe for early 2025.

Fans can expect a packed set with fan favorites from THE HALO EFFECT 's debut album, "Days Of The Lost" , which came out in 2022, and also some new tunes from the band's upcoming sophomore effort. Special guest on this tour will be industrial outfit PAIN , as well as Finnish melo-death shooting stars BLOODRED HOURGLASS .

"Halos Over Europe 2025" tour dates:

Jan. 16 - DK Copenhagen - Amager Bio Jan. 17 - DE Hamburg - Markthalle Jan. 18 - DE Cologne - Essigfabrik Jan. 19 - NL Haarlem - Patronaat Jan. 21 - UK Bristol - The Fleece Jan. 22 - UK Glasgow - Slay Jan. 23 - UK Wolverhampton - KK´s Steel Mill Jan. 24 - UK Manchester - Manchester Club Academy Jan. 25 - UK London - Electric Ballroom Jan. 26 - BE Antwerp - Trix Jan. 28 - FR Paris - Bataclan Jan. 29 - DE Frankfurt - Batschkapp Jan. 31 - DE Stuttgart - LKA Longhorn Feb. 01 - DE Munich - Backstage Feb. 02 - CH Solothurn - Kulturfabrik Kofmehl Feb. 04 - DE Berlin - Kulturbrauerei Kesselhaus Feb. 05 - DE Leipzig - Hellraiser Feb. 06 - AT Vienna - Arena Wien Feb. 07 - HU Budapest - Barba Negra Blue Stage Feb. 08 - CZ Brno - Sono Centrum Feb. 09 - PL Warsaw - Progresja

THE HALO EFFECT recently completed mixing its sophomore album for an early 2025 release.

Asked in an interview with A Swedish Fika With about the musical direction of the new THE HALO EFFECT songs, Peter said: "I think it's definitely the same type of music, but as an artist, you don't obviously wanna repeat yourself. But I guess what we did on the first one, we just went in and we took the ideas and what was written and made it into songs. And without thinking of, 'This is gonna sound like this or that.' And now with the second album, we know how it's gonna sound. But I guess we kept on still doing it the same way. So there's no real change. It's THE HALO EFFECT . It's not gonna be a big change in a different direction. We're gonna keep on trying to do what we started to do."

Last August, Peter told Australia's "Everblack" podcast about THE HALO EFFECT 's mindset while writing the new material: "What we've done with this one and the last one was basically we just went into the studio with some ideas. Niclas had many, many ideas, some finished songs, and then he invited us, everybody else, in the songwriting process. So we went in without having a clear plan on how it's gonna sound, but obviously, it's in the fingers and it's in Mikael 's voice. Whatever comes out is the way that it sounds now. So the next record is — you always wanna evolve, obviously, but it's not different; it's definitely the same type of genre. And, like I said, we went in and we played what we felt like. And Niclas had written a bunch of songs together with Jesper , and we went in the studio on this one and just did our thing on them."

He continued: "A lot of times some bands evolve all the time and it's always different from record [to record]. But I think we feel more comfortable than we did before. We had no pressure by doing [the first THE HALO EFFECT album] 'Days Of The Lost' , and we had no pressure [on the follow-up album]. But at the same time, we've been out playing, we're together in an even stronger way than we were before. So, it's definitely the same type of music. But it's — I don't know; it's hard to describe."

Also in August, Stanne told Finland's Chaoszine about THE HALO EFFECT 's upcoming LP: "It's done, and it sounds awesome. But, yeah, we were [originally] supposed to do an EP [instead of a full-length album] — we had that kind of plan — but then we realized, 'Ah, maybe not.' … So it's been — not stressful, but we did a lot during a short period of time, which ended up being fantastic just because it turned out a much more confident album, I think. It's very focused and you can, you can probably tell — at least from the people that I've played it to — that whereas the first time was kind of, like, 'Hey, let's figure out what we wanna do,' whereas this is kind of, like, 'This is exactly what we wanna do.'"

He added: "So it's, it's gonna be interesting. I can't wait to have people hear it because I'm incredibly proud of it."

Asked if the second THE HALO EFFECT album is a "continuation" of "Days Of The Lost" , which came out in 2022, Stanne said: "Yeah, I think so. I think Niclas and Jesper were more confident in terms of their songwriting, where it's, like, 'Yeah, this is gonna work.' And there are some cool experimentation on the album as well, but some of the songs are just like straight up, like there's no questions. It's just so easy and so to the point, you know. So it's kind of fun when I get the demo version of a song, and I start thinking about lyrics and vocals, it's, like, it just makes sense. I just know this by heart. It's so easy. Which is — it is weird, but it's just, like, it speaks to me in a way that where I go like, 'Okay, I know exactly what to do and I can finish it in a matter of days.' That's sometimes how it feels. You just hear a song and you go, like, 'Yep, I know this already. I know exactly what to do. And it's gonna be great."

In February, THE HALO EFFECT released the official music video for the song "Become Surrender" . The track, which has been a staple of THE HALO EFFECT 's live shows for a while now, is not expected to appear on the band's upcoming second album.

THE HALO EFFECT debuted "Become Surrender" , which was recorded at the same time as "Days Of The Lost" , during its February 2023 Swedish tour.

In May 2023, THE HALO EFFECT released a visualizer for the song "Path Of Fierce Resistance" . The track, which was previously released as a Japanese exclusive on "Days Of The Lost" , was finally made available in the rest of the world.

"Days Of The Lost" entered the official chart in Sweden in the summer of 2022 at position No. 1. This was believed to be the first time a debut LP from a metal act had ever topped the chart in Sweden in its first week of release. "Days Of The Lost" also landed at No. 6 in Germany.

Singer Bret Michaels will return to Central PA with his 'Parti-Gras 2.0 End of Summer Party' at Hollywood Casino

S inger Bret Michaels, a Central Pennsylvania Music Hall of Famer and favorite son of Mechanicsburg, will bring the party to the Hollywood Casino on Saturday, September 14.

The Poison frontman made the announcement at a virtual press event on Monday.

Michaels' Parti-Gras 2.0 End of Summer Super Party will build on the momentum of last year's inaugural Parti-Gras tour. He'll be joined on stage for the first time ever by Dee Snider of Twisted Sister and Mark McGrath of Sugar Ray, plus special guests Great White, Dave Bray and more hometown surprise guests.

Earlier this year, Michaels announced plans to take an extended break in 2025 to focus on addressing some medical issues, so this could be the last time local music fans get a chance to see him on stage for a while.

Known for honoring his three generations of fans, veterans and all those who serve, Michaels said this year's event will focus on celebrating all things Central Pennsylvania, including local musicians, hometown heroes and veteran appreciation.

"Whether he’s selling out stadiums or headlining hit TV shows, Michaels consistently brings his iconic energy and star power to over three generations of loyal fans," Hollywood Casino said in a press release. "As one of music’s most legendary singers and songwriters, both with Poison and his solo band, Michaels counts Every Rose Has Its Thorn, Go That Far (Rock of Love theme) & Nothing But A Good Time as part of his robust catalog of mega-hits."

On television, Michaels’ shows include his #1 family show Life As I Know It, the record-breaking enduring hit Rock of Love with Bret Michaels and a recent turn as the audience-favorite Bandana Banana in Fox’s hit The Masked Singer. 

As a well-known creative entrepreneur, Michaels took his Celebrity Apprentice-winning Trop-A-Rocka Iced Tea and turned it into a bestselling global product for Snapple. He still finds time to give back through his Life Rocks Foundation which supports a myriad of charities & will make a healthy donation in Central PA.

Most importantly, Michaels looks forward to nothing but a good time on Saturday, September 14. 

"To all my fellow Penn State fans, there is no home game that day, so we’ll see you at the Parti Gras!” he joked at his concert announcement.

Tickets for Parti-Gras 2.0 go on sale Thursday at 10 a.m. on Ticketmaster.
