A full itinerary is still being confirmed, but POISON and RATT will join forces for a summer trek starting June 13 at the Bi Lo Center in Greenville, S.C., and wrapping Aug. 19 at the Coors Amphitheatre in Denver.

The tour, which brings Poison and Ratt onstage together for the first time since 1999, will visit amphitheaters, festivals and fairs in such cities as Boston, Detroit, New York, New Jersey and Los Angeles, says Troy Blakely, who books Poison with the Agency for the Performing Arts.

"Generally we're going to play 50-60 dates," Blakely tells Billboard.com. "I'd say 30-35 are sheds. The rest are various festivals, fairs and indoor shows."

Confirmed festivals thus far include Birmingham, Ala.'s City Stages (June 16), Bay City, Mich.'s Bay City River Roar (June 22), Pryor, Okla.'s Rocklahoma (July 13) and Sturgis, S.D.'s Buffalo Chip (Aug. 5).

Poison hit the road last summer on a 10-week 20th anniversary tour with Cinderella, which grossed $5.4 million and attracted more than 270,000 in attendance for 37 concerts, according to Billboard Boxscore. The summer jaunt was in conjunction with the release of "The Best of Poison: 20 Years of Rock," which has sold 358,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

As previously reported, Poison have recorded a new album of cover songs, featuring many of their favorite rock classics. Poison'd, the band's first new studio album since 2002, will be released June 5th on CD and digitally by EMI America Records/Capitol.

Featuring Poison's original members, Bret Michaels (vocals), C.C. DeVille (guitar), Rikki Rockett (drums) and Bobby Dall (bass), Poison'd presents the band's first new studio recordings since 2002's Hollyweird. Produced by Don Was at Hensen Recording Studios in Hollywood, Poison'd packs 13 explosive tracks, including including new recordings of DAVID BOWIE's 'Suffragette City', THE CARS' 'You're Just What I Needed', THE ROMANTICS' 'What I Like About You', SWEET's 'Little Willy', THE MARSHALL TUCKER BAND's 'Can't You See' and ROLLING STONES' 'Dead Flowers'. Some of Poison's best previously recorded covers are also featured on Poison'd, including KISS' 'Rock and Roll All Nite', GRAND FUNK RAILROAD's 'We're An American Band' and LOGGINS AND MESSINA's 'Your Mama Don't Dance'.
