Bret Michaels plots 40th anniversary Poison reunion in 2026

Bret Michaels says he wants Poison’s original lineup to play 40 dates in 2026 to celebrate the band’s 40th anniversary.

The glam metal outfit haven’t toured since a 2022 trek with Def Leppard and Motley Crue. A rumoured 2025 tour has been ruled out by Michaels and drummer Rikki Rockett, with the vocalist saying he needs to focus on his health.

But it looks as though 2026 could be the year fans get to see Michaels, Rockett, C.C DeVille, and Bobby Dall in action again.

In a social media post, Michaels says: “It’s no secret, I have stated previously that in 2025 I’m planning to perform limited shows to focus primarily on health, starting with my diabetes, which needs a tune-up.

“Not to mention a little R&R, as everyone knows my tireless work ethic and passion for performing music, as well as some much-needed personal family time.

“Like I recently stated, I’m like a classic muscle car – still fast and still fun to drive, just need a little more maintenance.

“However, in 2026, I’m excited to say it will be Poison’s 40th anniversary since the release of Look What the Cat Dragged In in 1986, so it would make perfect sense to have the possibility of a reunion in 2026.

“In my opinion, it would be the perfect 40th anniversary tour, with 40 awesome limited dates to go out, play real live hit songs and rock the world.”

While he is clear about what he’d like to do, Michaels admits there’s a lot of work to be done for the tour to happen.

He adds: “None of this is confirmed and it takes much coordination and planning to have a successful tour, good things happen in 4’s for Poison — 4 original band members, 40th anniversary, 40 limited dates, Parti-Gras 4.0 and May the 4s be with you!”

WHEN DON WILLIAMS RELEASED I TURN THE PAGE, HE WASN’T COMING BACK TO COUNTRY MUSIC — HE WAS COMING BACK TO HIMSELF. In 1998, after nearly seven years of silence, Don Williams returned to the studio without headlines or fanfare—only a quiet phrase: I Turn the Page. It sounded less like an album title and more like a confession. Insiders said he walked back into Nashville as if carrying unfinished verses in his coat pocket. The songs were slower. The voice deeper. Each track felt like a memory he wasn’t ready to name out loud. This wasn’t a comeback meant to chase charts or trends. It was something riskier—a return meant to face time itself. What really pushed the Gentle Giant to open that page again is a story whispered between the lines.

“‘Dad… all I want is to keep singing by your side… but there’s something holding me back…’ — Keith Urban and Daughter Sunday Rose Deliver a Heart-Stopping Grand Ole Opry Duet That Silenced the Crowd and Left Nicole Kidman in Tears”!From the very first note, Keith Urban and Sunday Rose didn’t just perform—they stopped time. The Grand Ole Opry fell silent, every eye locked on a father-daughter duet that felt less like a show and more like a heartbeat shared in perfect harmony. Keith’s warm guitar set the stage, but it was Sunday’s trembling hands and fragile, radiant voice that stole the night. Between notes, she whispered, “I just want everyone to hear how much I love him,” her tears sparkling in the spotlight.

When Jackson Browne stepped onto the stage to join Joan Baez for Before The Deluge, time stood still. Two legends, bound by music and rebellion, poured their souls into every note – his raw honesty colliding with her timeless grace, creating a storm of sound that felt like it could crack the sky. In 4K clarity you could see it in their eyes: decades of struggle, courage, and truth carried in every chord. The crowd didn’t cheer, they listened – silent, heavy, alive – as if bearing witness to something bigger than a song. This wasn’t just music, it was a reminder that art can heal, protest, and ignite hope all at once. For anyone who lives for rock n roll’s fire, this was pure transcendence.
