I'd hope they headline the sheds. If co-headline to play last for sure.

[Brainy Lane]

I don’t think this is happening.
I hope it does.

[Rocker4Real]

I hope they work on new material.

[DemonFilth2001]

I hope they work on new material.

Why? If they do, it'll be pure shit. Ever heard Bert solo? Hollyweird???

They wont write songs as a band? The old albums have all four of them listed as writers. They tried to be real rockers with Flesh and Blood and Native Tongue.

[HoldenSSV]

Could it be more obvious that they photoshopped Bert into that picture?

That sounds awful...contractually. I know Bret was saying 40 shows for 40 years, but saying "we have agreed"...clearly, they're having to get Bret to "agree" to things. Fucking ruins the band.

But, if they do get Twisted to come out of retirement, I'll be there for them.

I think it’s time all hair bands should retire

[AlexVonHaig]

Will Ride the Wind be a deep cut that they put back into the set because the fans demanded it?

That's an idea. A long cruise to Antarctica. Spend a month with your favorite bands as they retreat to their deathbed.

Bret has mentioned something like Poison Parti Gras 3.0 so TS may be a possibility.

Motley or Def Leppard would be fine but been there done that. Same with Cinderella and Ratt.

Let’s see…

Literally next to NOBODY wants new music from any of these artists. It's a small fraction of their fanbase who give a F#@k beyond the show.

Go to any 80's hairband show, any Hard Rock metal show and ask 100 people, I'd bet the response would be less than 10%. More like 5%.

In the end, 90+ % of the fans who attend these shows, are simply going to hear the Hits they know from the past.

I am not dissing you, or the few who want new music, but the truth is, it's a very small percent who do. #facts

I'm aware it is a selfish request to satisfy my curiosity of what kind of songs they can come up with. It's not that difficult. They can half-ass it like GNR did.

[Tommy2Tone84]

Poison, and Bert specifically is such a joke. They had a good run from 1986-95 but they’ve blown balls since the 2000 reunion. They could have done such cool whit but instead gave us Hollyweird

Most of these bands haven’t had any gas in the tank for years. Covsnake had some solid efforts with Doug and Reb, Sebastian Bach has done some respectable solo albums, Slash has been better on his own the last thirty years than he is in GNR.

Tesla has also continued to make some decent records.
