According to Poison frontman Bret Michaels, Def Leppard and Poison will be heading out on a tour of North America this summer. This news comes as a surprise to many considering that last year the bands engaged in a war of words with each other. More details will be announced as soon as they are confirmed.

I had a feeling after what happened over the summer that this would happen. I'm all for it. Been a DL fan for over 25 years and it's about time here recently they tour with a group that puts on a hell of a show. Have seen Poison about 5-6 times over the past few years and they are awesome in concert! I hope it's true

I'm thinking it's sponsored by Rogaine at this point, or at the very least, the company Bret Michaels buys all of his bandannas from.

I don't think Bret reads this. And to be honest, those Reality TV chicks are his bread and butter now, not tours such as this.

I have seen Poison a few times and they always put on a great show, Def Leppard is a pretty good band, not my favorite but they have a few great songs. Hope the tickets are fairly cheap. Note to Bret on this tour please leave those whores from your tv show at your place, even if they are off to the side of the stage they could still give the entire audience STD's. I only way I want an STD is if i am actually having sex with a chick, not one that is standing a 1000 feet away.

Well, I heard about this possible show from a friend. I'm a HUGE Lep fan and he loves Poison, so I'm hoping it materializes. I used to be into Poison and though I love to poke fun at Bret every chance I get, I wouldn't say I hate them. At any rate, it would be a really awesome show so I'm keeping my fingers crossed!! And, NO! All the chicks there won't be 60! Give me a break! We're talking the 1980's! Not the 50s or 60s! If you loved 80's metal the first time around, why not go see an awesome show like this. If it's not your cup of tea, stay home!
