Bret Michaels Dodges Bullet
Tue Nov 22, 7:00 AM

Somebody's gunning for Bret Michaels.

The Poison frontman literally dodged a bullet, or at least a pellet, escaping injury after someone fired a single shot into his tour bus Monday night.

E! Online In a statement, Michaels' manager says the rocker was not hit by the projectile, but he "was struck in the face by flying broken glass."

The release goes on to say that "this was not a random drive-by shooting due to the shots being fired directly into the living quarters at the rear of the bus." It also claims that "throughout his career, Michaels has been the target of numerous death threats investigated by the FBI."

Michaels himself says in the statement that he will soldier on.

"I want to thank all of my fans in the Chicopee area for staying out last night, and I will be back."

But local authorities are downplaying the seriousness of the incident. "It appears to be a simple case of vandalism," says Sergeant Christopher Lareau of the Chicopee Police Department.

Speaking by phone Tuesday, Lareau confirmed that the left rear window of the bus had been shot out, but that he believed the weapon involved was a "pellet gun." He added that there were currently no suspects.

In his statement, Michaels asks that any tips be sent to his Website, bretmichaels.com, or the police.

"Hopefully, with the help of many people, we will catch the person who did this and they will be brought to justice," the rocker says.

The tour bus tagging caps a rough year for members of one of the biggest hair metal bands of the late 1980s. Last month, a Los Angeles judge sentenced Poison guitarist C.C. DeVille to 80 days in jail after he pleaded no contest to driving under the influence and causing injury.

As for Michaels, he is due in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, for a show Tuesday followed by a Thursday concert in Cincinnati.

Now...in my opinion, Poison blows moose cock.

But trying to kill somebody is a bit out of bounds.

If someone actually was trying to kill him, they could certainly find a better way than randomly shooting at his tour bus....

True....true.

But it sounds like Bret's been a target for awhile. Maybe that was just a test fire. :D

Although, at this point, where's the sport in it?

Killing a C or D list has-been hair band singer carries with it no panache....no style.

As much as I hate to interrupt the virtual cross burning....

It sure would seem that this isn't the best month for Poison.

First CC gets all his guitars stolen. Now someone's shooting at Bret's wig.

What next? Will someone sabotage Rikki Rokkett's makeup table??

The horror the horror......

I'll have to disagree with ya, Poison rocks, and a lot harder than Bon 'Goo Goo Dolls' Jovi, at least Poison never sold out musically.

BUT ANYWAY.....

The most important thing is the last line of your post.

Human dignity is the golden rule, and hats off to ya for being human about this topic...

This whole thing reaks of weirdness. It's probably some misguided attempt at making sure his insulin levels are ok.....all fun and games 'til somebody gets an eye put out with a dart gun.

Bands like Poison are the reason the record companies gave up on hard rock...

No, bands like Mudhoney, Greenriver, Nirvana, and Soundgarden spelled the death knell for "Hard Rock"


:cool:

Alice In Chains were the closest to the late '80's hair rock, but were actually more influenced by bands such as AC/DC.

Don't forget who Van Hagar took on tour with them........


Metal Church, Forced Entry, Section 8, Mistrust, Mace, the list goes on of the "almost were" in the late 80's Metal/Hard Rock scene before it all went Sub Pop

And then there were The Posies :D


Ahhhh, the memories....

Shit no, missed it. :p

Remember when Ronnie Montrose teamed up with them?

Laughingly referred to as Montrails :D

Rail.

Shit, haven;t thought of them for awhile...

I have heard Spike doing commercials for Sebo's on AM1090 though...:D

I haven't listened to 1090 since I got XM. Not that I got reception worth a shit anyway.

They had RAIL on because they were playing a gig somewhere with "Spike & the Impalers", which is what Bob & Spike are calling their current band. They got a couple of the guys from Paul Rodgers' band to help out, since they haven't had anything better to do lately.

So they're playing gigs in clubs around the area or something, usually opening for some semi-famous band, like Rail. Or the Beatniks, I think it was a few weeks ago.
