Twenty-two years after the cat dragged ‘em in, Poison is heading back out. Led by our own Rock of Love wild man, the guys with the big hair and the hooky metal riffs are spending a big chunk of the fairest season cruising from city to city on a romp they’re calling the “Live, Raw & Uncut Summer Tour.” It’s sync’d up to a product, natch. A CD/DVD set with the same title hits the racks in June; this time ’round it’s all about the concert and the hits. Maybe Bret will be filming some of the action for the alleged big rock road show he’s been mentioning in interviews.
Make the jump to see if he’s stomping near you.

Excuse me, but how’s Bret gonna hook up with a stripper by playing Walker, MN?
Oh, I meant “dancer.”
Honestly, how can that man(you script) get ANY work done, when as soon as he spots a female, he starts analyzing how she “wants him.”
Because from the show, it’s obvious that Bret thinks any woman on two legs (wrapped around a pole) WANTS HIM.
I think he should just hook up with Mr. Hefner and live the rest of his life laying back, having grapes put in his mouth.
Maybe VH1 could give us: Mansion of Love 1 and they could both “hook for love” (WINK WINK).
Destiney, make sure you start planning your hook up dates with Bret early – they’re all listed.
ladies, quit %&`^) ing – buy a ticket and enjoy the show
I CANT WAIT!!!! I AM 29 aND I LOVE ROCK , old and new! !!!!! sO I THINK ITs AWESOME! GOOD FOR U BRET! *%^& THOSE HATERS!!! I ‘D DO U 4 SURE!!!!
LMAO @ Michele! Right on!!!
I think this tour should be called “The Battle of the Jowls”. . cuz Bret sure has ‘em.
This dude is found at the interracial club —Blackcentury.com— a moment ago. He has created a personal profile to seek young and hot girls out of his race there.
All these small towns and no Riverside county dates come on Bret what if there was a poll where we demanded you come to Riverside, California or a casino in Riverside County would you come, come on my friend in utah has already got to see you twice please. Bret I absolutly loved your shows Rock of Love seasons one and two to have you perform in my town would be fantastic.
He doesn’t have time for a relationship by the looks of his schedule. Any woman that would just do Bret to do him because he’s a famous musician, has a serious problem Marie, you must not have many morals yourself.
It’s good for his career I suppose but I definatly think he has some serious growing up to do. He doesn’t take sex to serious he’s 45 – has 2 daughters? I don’t get it at all why he’d want to sleep around and make out with all those women yuk. He should have enough money from the past if he invested it right and shouldn’t have to be back on the road so much he should be set in life from his past tours and I’m sure they paid him millions to do Rock of Love 1 & 2.
Bret is hot at his age but come lookin for love on TV, that is the craziest sh## I’ve ever heard of. Love eventually finds everyone. And the girls on the show, whoever picks them needs to FIRED!!!!!!!!! Those females are a disgrace to real women looking for real love. Bret you could do so much better looking for love on your own.You don’t need some money hungry,fake a##, $#~ ty , lips, hair groopy.
Does anyone really care about a bunch of old guys in wigs and mascara? I do! why won’t they come o good ol’ Bakersfield?
OKAY SO BRETT HAD DAISY WITH HIM AT HIS SHOW LAST NIGHT!!!! They were all over each other! What the f*ck! I guess because he has a d*ck and he’s Bret he can do whatever he wants. Why bother doing the show you just let all the fans down!
Bret looks so hot
bret looks like about a he *%%`( if there ever was one !!!
the words get a hair cut and try and act like a man come to mind lmao !
THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO PrincessS SAYS…… IF WHAT YOU’RE SAYING IS TRUE, THEN BRET AND DAISY NEED TO BE SWORN IN BEFORE THEY HOLD AN INTERVIEW WITH ANYONE. AMBRE CAN’T BE ANYTHING TO BRET IF HE IS OUT WITH DAISY BEFORE THE REUNION SHOW AIRS FOR THE PUBLIC TO SEE. IT GOES TO SHOW THAT ROCK OF LOVE2 WAS NOT AS REAL AS EVEN BRET SAYS IN HIS INTERVIEW. AND IF DAISY WAS WITH BRET AND WAS ALL OVER HIM AS YOU SAID SHE WAS, THEN DAISY LIED IN HER INTERVIEW WHEN SHE COMMENTED THAT SHE WAS NOT GOING TO SLEEP WITH BRET UNLESS THEY WERE IN A RELATIONSHIP. SHE SAID THAT SHE WAS NOT THAT KIND OF GIRL, BUT EVIDENTLY SHE IS EXACTLY THAT KIND OF GIRL. WHY DO PEOPLE HAVE TO LIE SO MUCH AND ACT LIKE THEIR BAD BEHAVIOR SHOULD BE REWARDED. I DON’T CARE HOW POPULAR YOU ARE OR HOW POPULAR YOU WANT TO BE. YOU SHOULD NOT INSULT THE VERY PUBLIC WHO HAVE INVESTED IN YOU TO MAKE YOU POPULAR AND SUCCESSFUL.
So what’s up with: Poison vs Bret Michael’s Band?
And Marie, if you would “do” Bret, you should get a checkup. Yuk. When Bret reaches out to touch a breast, he doesn’t care WHOSE it is… probaby could be a guy with big honkers. If that’s what you think you want/like, you’re watching too much E! TV. But then again, as ROL2 showed, there are females ready to stand in a queu for ANYthing. I swear, VH1 or whoever could be handing out Dentists with Drills and sure enough, SOME group of stupid females would line up going… Do Me Do Me, drill me while my Gum is Numb! That’s the world we live in today and Marie is right there, smak in the middle of it.
I just wanna say, that as a female, I’ve had sex, and then again, made love to a best friend/long-time companion and the difference? I can do the former by myself and get the same feeling, but that latter unleashes everything a passionate encounter should be.
Men, if you want a wonderful time in bed, don’t look to females as interchangeable body parts. Really connect with them and you will learn what older, wiser, mature men have learned through the centuries. It’s a secret to Bret so shhhhhhh, don’t tell him. I think we can all trust that Marie will certainly not give it up as she doesn’t get it… even though she “wants IT.”
Remember that song by Elvis… Marie’s The Name, of His Latest Flame. It’s good that was written down because it can be so HARD to remember that Latest Flame’s Name… who is she, again?
I have just read the posts and howled at most of them. I am sure there are plenty of hard core Poison fans, of which I am not one, but Bret Michaels just thinks he is God’s gift to women and he needs to take another look at himself. He shows what a conceited fool he really is doing the Rock of Love shows. I admit to watching the shows and find it endlessly funny that so many women would do a show like his and make absolute fools of themselves. I agree with you Michele, that idiot thinks any and every woman wants him…and most of them seem to come equiped with stripper pole experience. I think it is a great idea to hook him up with Hugh Hefner and his blond bimbos and do the Mansion of Love! Brilliant! Shoot, with Kendra’s filthy mouth and booty shaking, Bridget’s brain damaged looks and Holly’s delusional mind and plastic face, it sounds like a dream show! Hef can come down the stairs in his silk pajamas every so often looking like an early alzheimers case as Bret does what he does best….ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! Way to go Michele!
I love u Bret but i think Ambre is going to get hurt with your life style ru still going to raise hell when u go on tour and ru going to sleep with some one that throws themselve at u or that u think is hot i can’t c u with one girl or guy for that mattter . and how about your x and your girls does ambre know about how the x always call Breeeet the girls need braces Breeet the girls needs new shoes and Breeet i need mone could please send me some and how about all the porn movies that u made Does Ambre know about Pamela Anderrson and by the Heather is just as big of ho as Daisy i us to llike Heather but not i do not and if she ever hit me like that anyhoo good luck
Bret u look different witnout the rag on your head and how come you’re not comming to Atlanta ,Georgia Daisy , i think u look alot better than that flat +^$ Heather and i love u I think u should wait till the show is over and wait for her as she come out the door need i say more. whei was dating a guy that work th light s for Alex Cooley sure i dated one or two of the guys in a band but no matter what if there were a party or backstage noone the other _`#&@ es and wanted to fight guy use to fight over me and i would walk away and find me some one else or just go home .It really hurts to think that the girls fight like that and Bret may like it They should be on Jerry Springer show thats how low it has gotten Especially Heather calling Daisy names when she is a stripper too and i ho too in my opinonAGAIN GOOD LUCK AMBRE OR SHOULD I SAY FEEETS DON’T FELL ME NOW
The only reason, Bret chose Amber was because she is 37! He does not want to alienate his TARGET AUDIENCE! He is very well aware of the fact that most of his fans are in their late 30’s and early 40’s!
Frankly, there was NO CHEMISTRY between Bret and Amber, their kisses seemed forced and rehearsed!
Amber is a B-I-T-C-H! She is PASSIVE-AGGRESSIVE! If you check out the footage, you will start to notice a pattern, she would start all the S-H-I-T and then, sit back and watch the other girls fight! (She loved adding fuel to fire!)
Her abs are disgusting! And, she needs to get her donkey ears pinned back! Plus, she needs to get that Adam’s apple shaved off!
Furthermore, I did not like the way she put Daisy down. Just because she has more “FORMAL EDUCATION†does not mean that she’s smarter than Daisy! Actually, Daisy is young, and she can always go back to school, and by the time she’s Amber’s age, she could be:
Daisy De La Hoya, MD.
or Daisy De La Hoya, Attorney at Law
Why Not?
Bret made a BIG MISTAKE, again! I guess he’s into skinny chicks with no T-I-T-S!
DAISY IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL AND DESERVED TO WIN!
It was heart-breaking to see her cry. Poor, sweet, girl! Such a sweet girl!
i wonder does bret take that wig off when he $%+# the girls
Daisy should be ashamed of herself for hooking up with him again after he dumped her on tv. If he thought she’s not good enough to be his girlfriend then he shouldn’t be sleeping with her. Why would she still want him.
hi there everybody, i was on flavor of love and i think i woulda had a better chance on rock of love. bret micheal seem easier than flav. he like to get wit lotsa hos. he might not like black women but i’m biracial, so he probably gimme some. i strip, nude model, and do porn and flav don’t like that but bret does.
Bret is just a plain loser when it comes to finding a girlfriend. I hope he does end up with Daisy (pathological liar with huge baboon lips) since she is as “skanky’ AS ANY SLUT COULD BE. She is the type that gives the “gift” that keeps on giving. Hey Bret….does it sting a bit when you go and take a leak? If so, I’d bet you’d think you picked up some critters from sitting on a toilet seat, especially if Daisy told you so. I wouldn’t touch that walking bacteria culture (Daisy) with my German Shepherds )#!~ Think about it Bret! By kissing Daisy you have sucked a few hundred )#!~ s by proxy.
What’s long and hard on Bret?
The 3rd grade.
bret isnt the type of guy that i would be looking for. he is not hot and o he sure is getiing old.
I am very confused, earlier I saw comments from GiGi but now they have disappeared. What is up with that. So I guess this website handles comments the same way the show handles their baggage. I thought the idea of a blog or chatroom was to give people a forum to voice their opinion. When you start controlling what is heard in any forum you have entered a dictatorship. If you do not want to know what people really think do not make a false forum of a blog. If you do not post these comments and keep them posted your Rock of Love 3 which everybody knows is in the future, considering Flava has 3, then you should change the name to Rock of LIAR, not Rock of Lust, not Rock of Like, Not Rock of Love, BUT ROCK OF LIAR. Now prove me wrong post my comments. Also, I would love to see GiGi on Rock of 3.
I am not one to watch “looking for love” shows, but I got a kick out of Rock of Love 2. I thought Bret handled himself well. He’s still a guy regarless of his age and I don’t think 44 year olds are ready for the old folks home. I’d love to meet the guy, I don’t think he is as shallow as he has been portrayed.
Whether it’s real or not…don’t know, I guess it depends on how well his new album and tour goes before we know if there will be a ROL3. And I would also like to know if his hair is real.. And the girls they picked, I hope they had their vaccinations before coming on the show…
CAN’T WAIT TO SEE THE BAND IN AZ @ THE DODGE THEATRE IN PHOENIX
I Love You Brett, I hope and pray to see you in concert at the Riverdome in Bossier City LA.In my opinion,and in my world,I nominate you as the most SEXXIEST and HOTTEST man on the face of this earth. I wish I could rock your world, hopefully some day , somewhere, you will see how it actually feels……to have your world rocked by me.I also hope we can become good friends, you’re handsome, talented, a true gentleman, intelligent, watching you on TV rocks MY world. I’ll ALWAYS LOVE YOU !!!! ….Nothing but good times baby, ROCK ONNNNN!!!!!!!.If you have a Season3 I would be honored .
QUESTION!! Does anyone know the difference between the POISON: LIVE, RAW & UNCUT TOUR and the BRET MICHAELS BAND TOUR DATES?? I want to see the show in Hampton, NH and it’s the Bret Michaels Band but I don’t know what the difference is. :o)
I hope this is my last blog because I am getting sick of this but I keep coming back for more! I have decided I should go to one of these shows so he can see what a gorgeous girl with brains and morals really looks like! The only thing I hate to say bad about Bret is, that since he picked Ambre, slowly I don’t see him as all that anymore. You can have kids, be married, whatever.. be 44 and not have to settle. You can still have a fun, wild life. In fact who want’s to be old, serious and boring. He should find someone like me who has all the looks, brains and morals but likes a really fabulous, crazy, lifestyle but with one person!! Too bad I am not lame enough to go on a reality show!
OK……Bret as one of my 5 rock gods needs a wicked girl to rock his world. And Ambre is a good pick. Trust me….I can see through people and Ambre is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God Bless!!
Just found this online:
“For anyone who watched the show Rock of Love 2 with Bret Michaels is probably not shocked to hear that the romance did’t last very long. Bret Michaels announced April 4 that finding true love from a reality TV show might be more difficult than he originally thought. Although Michaels said in an interview with the @!+ ociated Press, that his final pick Ambre Lake is a really nice, cool chick, that gets rock ‘n’ roll, he’s not sure she’s the right one for him. Lake, an actress, won out over Daisy de la Hoya, a singer and niece of Oscar de la Hoya. I don’t think it would have lasted with any of the girls that were on the show. But the season finale aired on Sunday night, and Bret gave the interview Monday, so that was a really quick romance! ! ! ! Oh poor guy, will he ever find true love, doubtful if he keeps looking for it on tv.â€
Heard that Bret and solo band rocked Wisconsin last night.
VH1 please bring us more interviews with Bret or kick off
filming a new show with him.
I would love to see Bret in concert I hope this year will be that year.
debi d,
sorry to tell you but bretts hair is not real on the top. In the most recent show he did however sport the top of his head uncovered with a very non convincing wig. how bout we start a fund and call it HELP BRET GET SOME PLUGS
ok People Wake Up!!!!! Don’t you know Amber is writing a book about her experience. Yep it’s true.
If bret was poor he wouldn’t have any girls fighting over him. the guy is an old saggy fart.
does any one else think it’s gay that bret wears eyeline??? If my man wore eyeliner i would check and make sure he wasn’t also wearing my panties.
ok I saw the show last night at the Hampton Beach Ballroom Casino in NH and it was really good. I was face to face with Big John and I tapped him on the arm and said “You’re much taller than I thought!” He says “Is that good or bad??” The guy is like 10 ft. tall!!!
… cont’d from below …. so anyhow it was so cute cause all the girls came running up to him to take his picture – he has his own little fan-base now :o) I didn’t bring my camera like an idiot, but i did get a pic on my cell phone. Anyhow, it was an excellent show – the band that was with him was awesome – sounded just like Poison – see the show if you can since it’s really good. And it’s nice cause it’s a much smaller venue.
Corrections needed here… Bret does not wear a wig now, but does have hair extensions because
his real hair has thinned. Diabetics do tend to have this thinning condition but I think Bret’s Dad had male pattern balding on top so Bret deals with both issues. I don’t know if hair plugs “take” with Diabetics—the medical element and complications there.
Anyway, I gotta say I love Bret with his extensions and even his eyeliner. Many men down through
history had long hair and even wore eyeliner—Ever hear of Egyptians??? Eighties bands
created the look as a style. So it is like a trademark for Bret’s era. So give it some slack.
Designers create “looks” everyday and just because one look doesn’t appeal to you doesn’t
mean that it is not totally “Hott” to others.
Any how what gives ANYONE the right to judge how individuals decide they want to look? Apparently millions of viewers adore Bret’s look because ROL was the highest rated and viewed show ever on their network.
Bret is smoking hott and will always draw in millions of viewers and fans to his shows.
I have loved you since I was 13 and your music continues to rock! I’ve senn you 2 times so far in concert and you kicked my a$$ both times. I REALLY hope you come to Memphis,TN on your summer tour this year because I would love to see you again. Hope to see you soon!
How come no BUFFALO Date? You always come here.I’m really disapointed :(
Bamboozle Festival E. Rutherford, New Jersey == Monday, May 05, 2008
Bret had been looking forward to this show since the day the contract was signed.
An opportunity for Bret to play to a huge young new audience most of which may have never seen POISON.
As luck would have it, Bret came down with a severe case of laryngitis after already having the flu. The night before in Pottsville PA, warned of signs that Bret may be pretty ((+@ se on the day of the Bamboozle Festival.
As we woke up it became obvious that Bret was sick, REAL SICK.
As show time approached, the idea of cancelling the performance came into play. But it was the last thing Bret was going to do. Clearly letting everyone know it was not an option, he disappeared into the back room for some personal meditation, preperation, and a professional vocal warm up.
5 minutes before show time, the idea of cancelling came up again, and Bret could barley say the simple one syllable word NO but managed to force it out. Promoters managers and other bands stopped by during the day and almost everyone of them said the same thing “We wouldn’t play if we were this sick.†in fact several other acts between the 2 days did have to cancel due to illnesses. At 45 probably the oldest but also obviously seasoned act of the entire show Bret was about to show over 30 bands and 40 thousand fans why he has had a consistent 20 plus year career in Music, Film and now Reality TV.
Literally unable to speak a word Bret hit the stage at exactly 5:40, and from that moment on gave 200%. Where he could have reached into his catalog of autistic ballads and sang softly, he chose the high road and marched right to the front line with TALK DIRTY TO ME, LOOK WHAT THE CAT DRAGGED IN, and the high energy solo song BITTERSWEET. Looking out into the audience it was obvious that the crowd was unaffected by his ((+@ se voice. The crowd was the biggest of the festival and the energy was at an all time high. To top it off Bret gave a near 45 minute set when his contract was only for 35 minutes. As in true BRET MICHAELS fashion, he gave more than expected under severe conditions. For the final song Nothin’ But A Good Time Bret was joined by the widely popular Coheed and Cambria. Who have crossed paths with Bret over the years and both Coheed and Bret are confessed fans of each other’s brand of ROCK. Later that night Bret was spotted on Coheeds stage enjoying their performance, and later watching Panic At The Disco before the festival came to a close.
Despite Bret’s illness, he had an amazing time and was thankful that the fans seemed to enjoy his performance.
Hope Bret gets to feeling better. Wish they could play in Little Rock, AR, which is closer to where I live. I think Big John and Poison is awesome. wish you all the best.

I’ve got some breaking news for everyone======
I was at the Bamboozle Festival, NJ May 4 where Bret and solo band hit the stage in the mid
afternoon. This was the best show I’ve ever seen in my life. If you didn’t make it there SO SORRY
for you—are ya jealous? Here’s the news–I read on the VH1 blog where someone sayin they were Big John talked about Bret being sick at the show. At the time I didn’t know if this was true. The audience never knew how sick Bret was. The show was rockin, $+)` stompin, and worth every penny I spent on my ticket. Same day of the festival Scott Heisel interviewed
Bret. For those who don’t know, Scott is the Music Editor for Alternative Press Magazine.
ALTPress.com. Scott has released a press video of the interview with Bret.
There was Bret big as life wearing his black Ed Hardy tee-shirt with the big skull on the front and his black American Outlaw hat. Then there it was right out of Bret Michael’s own mouth he says that he had larengitis that day and was feelling like crap but that he’s played shows feeling worse and that didn’t stop him from going on stage.
So far, our blogger Big John was nailing the truth down for us on this blog.
Now the big news====Scott Heisel asked Bret if there would be a ROL 3? Bret looked down at the floor and laughed so that you can see his dimples and then put his hand up to his mouth and laughed again and said::
Bret’s Quote: “Well, here’s the thing, right, the thing, ROL2 I thought was awesome, â€
(Bret’s eyes are NOT making eye contact with Scott, Bret keeps looking up and down at the floor like someone does when they are not being totally honest).
Bret continues to say, “Ambre is absolutely greatâ€â€¦(pauses slightly and looks back at the floor) “we’re still very much togetherâ€, (was looking down when he said that but then Bret moved his eyes back to Scott) Next Bret says, “I haven’t thought about a ROL3, but I had a thoughtâ€.
Bret says: “Um, what I’d actually love to do is something um called the Big Rock of Love Busâ€. “Right?†“And just take the party on the road, having fun, and do basically… it doesn’t necessarily need to be just a dating show, what it can be is… just out on the road, having fun, and what we did here today (at Bamboozle) the good, the bad, and the ugly today ..I mean I’m gonna say this, and it was so strange, I was so excited about this Festival and I came down about two days ago with a touch of larengitis and I’m not one of those guys in my whole career who liked to cancel anythingâ€.
Bret continues: “I’ve gone on with a 103 degree fever and played and I was just..and the audience was very kind, and cool, and we went out there and rocked it ,and that is part of what you see on the Rock of Love bus is the good nights, and the bad nights, and all the stuff that goes on with me and being in a real rock bandâ€.
The interview went on to talk about Bamboozle’s other bands and back when Bret had taped the Jimmy Kimmel show, so I didn’t include the rest of the interview here.
The thing that I wanted to show everybody is when Bret talked about doing bus show—
he let the cat out of the bag—his quote: †just take the party on the road, having fun, and do basically… it doesn’t necessarily need TO BE JUST A DATING SHOWâ€. This tells us that
he was thinking of ROL3, but wanted to change the new show abit so that is showed more than just his dating on the road. LADIES–sounds like and appears the way Bret did not look
Scott in the eye with his answer about him and Ambre that Bret is already thinking ahead to
dating on the road with OTHER WOMEN——–
WE ALL KNEW ROL 2 WAS JUST A PUBLICITY STUNT AND THAT BRET WOULD BE BACK DATING OTHER WOMEN AGAIN ! ! ! ! ! ! ! So glad that you have conspiciously confirmed the truth for us
Bret. I LOVE YOU ! ! ! ! LOVED YOUR SHOW AND WILL ALWAYS BE YOUR TRUE FAN!
Sweet Suga
