Nearly 21 years ago to the day, Bret Michaels performed in the Beaumont Civic Center (in Beaumont, TX) with his bandmates in POISON. He returns this Saturday (December 15th) and plans to rock the holiday season for all in attendance.
Michaels, along with special guest Vince Neil, vocalist of MÖTLEY CRÜE, will both be performing at the Beaumont Civic Center as Coondog Productions presents the sixth annual BCA Christmas Bash.
Tickets are on sale now at all Ticketmaster outlets for $25 for balcony seating only. Tickets can be charged by phone by calling 409-833-7747 as well.
“I’m really excited about the show in Beaumont on Saturday,” Michaels said during a telephone interview. “Especially since it was nearly 21 years ago to the day that Poison played there. It was our very first arena tour, and we were opening for RATT and CHEAP TRICK. It’s great to be coming back.”Michaels said he is “planning something special” for the show in Beaumont on Saturday, which happens to be his only solo Texas date of 2007, and believes fans will be pleased at the end of the night.
“We’re really putting together a special rock show,” “Vince toured with Poison in 2003, so we know each other really well. He’ll play a lot of the Mötley Crüe stuff, and I’ll play some Poison songs, plus some acoustic stuff. It will be a well rounded night.”Read more here.
