time 8,618 Posted April 25, 2010 Frontman for 80s hair metallers Poison, best known for lighters-in-the-air power ballad "Every Rose Has Its Thorn". Michaels himself also known to the hip young kids of today for his "Rock of Love" reality TV dating show, in which he sleeps with strippers and that's it. Ahhhh. So its only you who's heard of him. I'm a Deep Purple sort of guy. Any news on ian gillan? I've heard of him, in fact quite ridiculously I used to be a fan. Didn't he fuck Pamela Anderson and film it before Tommy Lee did? I've looked him up since Friday night, apparently he did. I'm not sure why I posted what I did, slightly pissed I suspect. Still, I was never a Poison fan, 1987 was around my UB40 phase. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suppose I could have looked it up myself, but I was scared of what I might find. I didn't go metal (as if Poison were metal!) until about 1990 - I was 14 in 87 and into The Cure, Depeche Mode, Siouxsie, Bauhaus etc etc - I suppose what might be called 'emo' now. Stupid name. Not as good as 'goth'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vinegar Tits 606 Posted April 26, 2010 the ultimate song of theirs (to me) is this, takes me back to the summer of 1987, it was a staple on the turntables of rock DJ's back then, we were young and thought we knew everything, happy days . Best thing Poison ever did, I agree. The 'Look What The Cat Dragged In' album is a great slice of fun, pop metal. I've seen Poison live (Donington 1990) and quite a lot of people I've seen live have died recently... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VSBfromH 74 Posted April 26, 2010 Another claim to fame for Bret Michaels was which occurred just last year at the Tony Awards. It gave him a fair old clout, resulting in a fractured nose and a cut lip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, I thought "Hole Hearted" was a 1991 hit for Extreme, not Poison... I saw them live at the Hammersmith Odeon - 1991, 92 ish, can't remember as I'm extremely drunk - but anyway, Nuno the guitarist told me to shut up. They were trying to shoot a video and I screamed like a girl. Edit - I actually posted this last night, but there must have been a technical hitch as the time says I posted it just now! And I'm obviously NOT extremely drunk at 1045 on a Sunday morning, that would just be ridiculous...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DevonDeathTrip 2,358 Posted June 1, 2010 Steve New, the guitarist who formed The Rich Kids in 1978 with post Pistols Glen Matlock and pre Ultravox Midge Ure, has died of cancer. He was a unique pick for me on the DDP, which means he probably won't get a UK obit. I don't seem to be having much luck this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
