I don't know why he's announcing this now. He could've waiting until the end of the summer when his brain tumor comes back and the doctors force his to take the year off. Then the love of the fans gives him the strength to come back and do another 45 minute set.

Bret on skin cancer: "I'll admit... I like having a great time" "all is great"?

He said, “What happened was… I’m a guy, I admit it, I like being out in the sun, I like having a great time. I usually do the right thing and spray and protect, but sometimes it’s not gonna stop it. And it happened, and we thought we got it, and then when it came back, it took it to another level. It got a little scary for a moment, but all is great.”
"You want Don Juan DeMarco, the world's greatest lover, to talk to you? What do you know of great love?"

He was havin nuthin but a good time :mrgreen:

Needs a break = his clusterfück of a show wasn't selling and he has to step back and re-think how to stoke his ego next without involving the Poison boyz.

This seems like a contract demand in the press. He'd said Poison in 2025. Now it sounds like he's telling the rest of the band, "If you don't give me what I want, we're not going to play because I'm not feeling well and need to rest."

Meanwhile, he's got all of 13 dates booked all year.

I will bet ANYONE for ANY amount of money that it's total bullshit. Bret will not stop touring till he either dies or is physically unable.

I think the only question to that is what I posted. The fact that he only has 13 dates all year is pretty crazy. Vince will book 13 dates in his sleep.

Bret states “he is going to leave it all on the stage this year”

Awesome.
