Bret Michaels, the charismatic frontman & star of NBC's hit show Celebrity Apprentice will be bringing his record setting solo tour across the United States this Spring!
Michaels, who is currently in the studio collaborating with Miley Cryus on the remake of the #1 hit "Every Rose Has It's Thorn" a song which he wrote, as well as working on a new solo album to be released later this year, continues to break attendance records on his own with his high energy performances.
In April, Michaels had an emergency appendectomy, then a few days later, a brain hemorrhage. During his 10-day recovery, he also had a warning stroke and doctors discovered a hole in his heart.
Of course, there’s also been a lot to cheer about. Besides just recovering and walking out of the hospital, Michaels also won "The Celebrity Apprentice," beating out actress Holly Robinson Peete and scoring $250,000 for the American Diabetes Association. Michaels has been a diabetic since the age of 6.
He also surprised many people by appearing on the finale of “American Idol,” singing Poison’s hit “Every Rose Has Its Thorn.” When he’s not touring solo, Michaels is fronting the ‘80s group Poison.
In addition to several solo shows like the one here a part of his “Custom Built” tour, Michaels is opening several shows for Lynyrd Skynyrd, including one in Birmingham the day after he plays here. He’s also been mentioned as a successor to Simon Cowell on next season’s “American Idol” and plans to release a new solo album, “Custom Built,” on July 6.
