Music reporter Nui Te Koha told Triple M Melbourne's Hot Breakfast that MÖTLEY CRÜE and WHITESNAKE are as good as locked in to tour Australia while one of the members from POISON will complete the massive triple bill.

Nui stated: "Mötley Crüe is now firmed up and looking like October/November at the end of the year with Whitesnake and somebody from Poison, nothing sorted out on the Poison front.”

Nui added that Poison frontman Bret Michaels is looking like the man who's coming down under.

As previously reported, Mötley Crüe and Poison are teaming up for the first time in their history on a North American co-headlining tour with special guests the NEW YORK DOLLS. Five shows have been added for August (+). The Crüe's SIN Member pre-sales for most of these shows begin Wednesday, May 18th at 10:00AM local time. For more information visit MotleySinClub.com.
