POISON Drummer RIKKI ROCKETT Talks Tour Plans For 2026 - "We Have Agreed To Do A Minimum Of 40 Dates"

Poison frontman Bret Michaels recently went on Facebook Live to speak about plans for the future, including for Poison to hit the road in 2026 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Look What The Cat Dragged In with his bandmates C.C. Deville (guitarist), Rikki Rockett (drummer), and Bobby Dall (bassist).

Michaels shared the following: 

"I know a lot of people are wondering, and I try to clear any confusion. ‘25 is going to be an awesome year. We're gonna pick out some special dates, and I'm just going to do my best to a little R&R, take care of my diabetes, which could just use a tune-up. That’s it and some other things that we're going through right now. All gonna be great. I'm keeping positive. And some great family time to have some fun, but still do some great select shows. And then '26, if all goes great, with a lot of moving parts with C.C. and Bobby, Rikki, myself, I am positive we're gonna work everything out and go out in '26."

On the October 31 installment of Sirius XM's Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk, Poison drummer Rikki Rockett commented on the band's tour plans:

"It's not figured out. We have agreed to do a minimum of 40 dates and maybe more. So whatever it works out to be, but it's for sure gonna be that many, at least. And I don't know; if there's somebody that we can package with that makes sense, great. If there isn't, then we'll headline. Whatever makes sense. It's like Bre said, if you can't do it right, do it anyway. But we'll be doing it right (laughs)."
