You should have been here in the not-so-deep South when that tune came out. It's main riff owed more than a passing resemblance to a lick in Lynyrd Skynyrd's "I Know A Little", and Skynyrd fans (still smarting from the untimely demise of the group and the failure of the Rossington-Collins Band) were up in arms that these lame posers had taken such a liberty.

You know....to some level I am with Jimi on this one. I think his people are making it out to be more than it is to get the sympathy vote and his popularity up. While, I am sure he has health issues, I think they very well could be over exaggerated.

Y'know, I've kept pretty quiet about this cuz I ain't one to kick a fish when he's down, but this guy is big on exaggerating EVERYTHING which is the main reason I can't stand him. Never mind the ridiculous persona and the God-awful shitty tunes. He just needs to get well and rest that over-inflated innertube he calls a mouth, preferably out of the spotlight he been whoring for all these years.

Three words. WE WERE THERE.
After seeing a couple minutes of "The Apprentice" the other night, I really think Brett needs to give up on his shitty music and do voice overs for radio commercials. He actually has a perfect voice for that.

Heard Bret is recovering very well ATM. Anybody wanna confirm this?
Reading Crazy From the Heat in four hours flat, in a cramped RV, on the return trip of a 3,000+ mile family outing to New Jersey is an enlightening experience you'll never forget.

Bret Michaels press conference: Poison frontman walking and talking; expected to make full recovery
BY Nancy Dillon
DAILY NEWS WEST COAST BUREAU CHIEF

Bret Michaels' medical team still doesn't know what caused the rocker's sudden brain bleed.
LOS ANGELES - Rocker Bret Michaels is very lucky man.
The Poison frontman who suffered a massive brain hemorrhage last month is walking and talking and expected to make a full recovery, his doctor said Tuesday.
He's even been released from the Barrow Neurological Institute, the Phoenix neurosurgery center that admitted him with "incapacitating" head and neck pain, lethargy, disorientation and slurred speech the morning of April 22.
"I really expect that he will fortunately make a 100% recovery," Dr. Joseph Zabramski, Barrow's chief of cerebrovascular surgery, told reporters. "He's just one of those lucky people, the 20% or so who have a subarachnoid hemorrhage who make a complete recovery and are able to resume all of their normal activities."
The doctor said multiple angiograms failed to turn up evidence of an aneurysm. His medical team still doesn't know what caused Michael's bleeding, he said.
"Patients who don't have anything identified in their angiograms tend to do well," Dr. Zabramski said. "This is one of those rare instances in medicine where we're actually pleased not to be able to find what caused the problem."
He said it will take another seven to 10 days for Michaels' body to dissolve the blood clot around his brain. It's a painful process called chemical meningitis that brings "severe" back pain and spasms, the doctor said.
"Earlier on he was feeling pretty good, and I think he thought he was going to be up and about sooner than he was," the doctor said. "(Then) this chemical meningitis thing takes over and he's really suffering again right now."
Because Michaels is a diabetic, doctors can't treat his new pain with steroids because they could send his glucose out of control.
"Right now he has severe back pain, and when he tries to walk he gets spasms in his back…and the headaches come back again," the doctor said.
Michaels is due for another major evaluation in two weeks, and Zabramski said he made the "Celebrity Apprentice" competitor promise he wouldn't offer any guarantees about his return to the concert circuit or Donald Trump's boardroom.
Zabramski refused to say where Michaels is now -- at a physical therapy center or back home.

Same ole song and dance...
Hmmm...
I'm happy I guess that the guy's doing better, but making tour plans, especially when they still don't know what cause the problem in the first place, is really rolling the dice.....

I saw him on the cover of People magazine when I ran to the store last night.
The funny thing was where it said 'exclusive pictures' and it had a picture of him in a hospital bed with wires all over his chest... and he still has the god damn bandanna on... LOL!!!
Hahahaha.
He must have insisted on a photoshop.
What a silly man.
Is he that insecure to show that he has a receding hairline ???
Bald is beautiful, baby !!
Holy fuck!
LMAO!
Bret Michaels, who suffered a subarachnoid brain hemorrhage on April 22, just 10 days after an emergency appendectomy in San Antonio, Texas while on his "Custom Built" tour, is planning on making his return to live performances Friday, May 28 (Memorial Day Weekend) at Hard Rock Live in Biloxi, Mississippi. This hard-rocking venue has hosted such acts as KID ROCK, THREE DOORS DOWN, STEVIE NICKS and DAUGHTRY.
Michaels, who has been rehabbing since his release from ICU, has increased his rehabilitation sessions to twice a day to prepare for his comeback in Biloxi and to continue on all of his solo dates, including a tour with LYNYRD SKYNYRD, which begins June 10 in West Palm Beach, Florida at the Cruzan Amphitheater.
"We have been overwhelmed with well wishes and offers that continue to pour in for Bret," states Brian Ahern from William Morris Endeavor Agency (WME). "And promoters have really stepped up to the plate to reschedule dates he missed. Which is a testament to Bret's great live performances and friendships he has built over the years."
The singer plans to remain on tour throughout the fall and early winter, with dates scheduled through December.
Shows that were postponed due to the singer's medical emergencies are currently being rescheduled.
Michaels, who continues to be a strong competitor on NBC's "Celebrity Apprentice" Sunday nights, is hoping to be able to return to New York, along with the rest of the cast, for the finale on Sunday, May 23. Donald Trump says, "We really hope that Bret is well and able to join us at the finale as 'Apprentice' has hit some of its highest ratings ever and I have much respect as he is a fighter and strong competitor."
Michaels will make his first televised appearance since being hospitalized on "The Oprah Winfrey Show", on an episode that will air Wednesday, May 19. His upcoming album, "Custom Built", includes the hit song "Nothing to Lose" with Miley Cyrus, a remake of the SUBLIME song "What I Got", as well as a rock and country remake of his smash hit "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" featuring other artists such as Jay Demarcus of RASCAL FLATTS, Brad Arnold of THREE DOORS DOWN, Chris Cagle and Mark Wills, just to name a few.
"Custom Built" is set to hit stores June 8.

Well he's achieved attention whore Royalty... he's made it to Oprah!
So in just a few days time, the bitch has been released from the hospital, released a single, done a People interview, lined up a stint on Oprah (fucking gag!) AND is preparing for a gig in a mere two weeks. Shit, most people can't even walk or talk or wipe thier own ass so soon after something like this. That fucker's Superman or I just got a whiff of a big fat rat.

Before everyone goes into complete hater mode remember the doctor did confirm the diagnosis and say he got lucky on the outcome.
None of the former, but plenty of the latter.
It's bullshit. And you're right, he would barely be able to communicate through speech and unlikely to walk without help for months if not years.
I smell a rat too, and it looks something like the thing residing on Trump's head.
Motherfucker sounds like he hasn't missed a beat. (Can't get it to embed.)

I thought one of those crazy whores on his reality show would have killed him already.
I thought one of those crazy assed bitches would fall for Brett too hard and he would end up in this sort of situation.
