Going to see them in Louisville with Def Leppard. Still my favorite band, and pretty excited.

My dream setlist would be: 1) Look What the Cat Dragged In; 2-11) Open Up album in order; 12) Unskinny Bop; 13) Talk Dirty To Me.

What we'll actually get will be less than 10 songs or so with a guitar and drum solo, at least 2 covers, and no deep tracks. I'll still love it.

But maybe they'll surprise us ... right.

Bret Michaels solo?!?! I'm in?

Oh. Wait. Poison solo. I'm in!

Until Michaels goes back to going solo. I'm in?

I need to check in more. This stuff confuses me.

Here ya on that, Steve Rox! If only these guys would bust out some other cuts. Either resident idiot Frett Psychaels or whoever' making the wrong decisions just doesn't get they don't need to do covers...

Here's my POISON 2017 Tour Dream Set List...

Pretty much half the first album but in this order plus the hits from "Open Up..."

1) Look What The Cat Dragged In
2) I Want Action
3) Play Dirty
4) Cry Tough
5) I Won't Forget You
6) Nothin' But A Good Time
7) Unskinny Bop
8) Look But You Can't Touch
9) Fallen Angel
10) #1 Bad Boy
11) Every Rose Has It's Thorn (Encore)
12) Talk Dirty To Me (Encore)

Wish I could see these guys this go around mainly just to watch DeVille shred that Flying V. That dude absolutely burns! Hopefully they'll expand the solo leg of their tour to a venue closer to me.

And how about working on a new album, already?!!! Sheeesh!!!

NICE, Oper8n! THAT's even better!

In fact, I'm actually gonna make a playlist out of your list (sans the solos unless I can find 'em live) for a concert of the mind to play on my phone and blast out my neighborhood!

We should really FedEx this to Michaels and the Boyz courtesy of their management company in L.A. for their consideration!

From the Poison Facebook page (where I left the list):
Question?

For this year's tour, let us know what songs you want to hear live?
Now, we won't be playing songs from records that C.C. wasn't on and we will play our hits because people really want those songs for sure.
Create a set list, starting with the opener and let us see what you all think!
