IMO, one of the coolest stories in Pennsylvania music history. Amazing that in the early 80’s these guys were playing at the Metron and putting on their own shows at skating rinks, and not a lot of people liked them. so they said forget this…..packed up and moved to CA. And 39 years later they are playing just 15 minutes up the road from those early days to over 30K people!
The energy and the look on their faces...all bands take note... *THIS IS THE EXCITEMENT YOU SHOW WHEN YOUR FANS SPEND HUNDREDS ON SEEING YOU!* Freaking amazing!
Brett talking to the Hershey crowd almost brings tears to my eyes because you can see how much it means to him and the boys to be back in Central PA😎❤❤🤟🏻🤟🏻💯💯💯😊😊
Thank you for posting this. Saw this concert in Jacksonville a couple weeks ago. It was Bret’s first show back since cancelling Nashville and when Poison came out and he came out, people went absolutely nuts! He is such a gamer! 59yrs old and is a complete badass. He puts those people in their 30’s who reference themselves as, “old”, to total shame. Poison was the best band of the night and Bret was the best front man of any band on the stadium tour. Please never delete this gem of a video
Thanks for posting! I was about 50 rows behind you Jim. Poison was so genuine and enthusiastic last night! Awesome performance by them! I enjoyed the hell out it!
Even if you hate poison and everything they stood for in the 80s you all have to admit they are top of line live! I was front in Philadelphia and they stole the show. Before this show it was 20 yrs ago I saw them and they were just as good.
I've never been a huge Poison fan, but it's hard to deny the songs these guys made. A lot of hits. I saw them back in the early '00s and I agree they are just as good now, but actually better. A lot of energy.
❤Brett’s energy on stage💯💯💯🤟🏻🤟🏻He still sounds really good as does the entire band😎As a Pennsylvania resident, I am happy to see them return to Hershey! Wish I could’ve been there. Thanks for the great footage Jim!
I don’t even like Poison but I must admit they look good here and Bret has a smile on his face and is enthusiastic. Most rockers would be jaded or bored by now after 30 years and phone it in but they are reenergized somehow. Bret jumps up and down like a little kid! I’m glad to see it because Rockn Roll will die otherwise. And Michaels has survived many close calls with his life and health and he appears to be grateful to be alive and singing again. I like to see a good story like this!
I'm not the biggest Poison fan that's for sure but man they are sounding great and putting on a hell of a show every stop on this stadium tour. Hat's off lads. 🤘🍻🇨🇦
I have always been a Motley fan but from every video I have seen Poison is carrying this tour! Just my opinion every show and there's been many posted, Poison has brought the energy! C.C. has been fire and Bobby and Ricky have been stellar. Bret is and always has been a fantastic frontman. I seen these guys their first time out on the Ratt tour and they were just a ball of fire and they haven't lost much! Leppard is Leppard just never really been that high octane act not that they have been bad but that's just DL! Motley are pretty much what I expected them to be. Good nights and no so good nights. I love them guys but for me just seems their trying to get through it. Classless I have been following them since Slash's son and the son of the bassist from Metallica was in the band but there's really no video of them floating around from this tour. Joan Jett is Joan Jett, Imo she didn't fit this tour but hey I didn't pay to see any of them so it's just my opinion.
As all these tour vids keep rolling out, it is apparent that Poison is the class of the tour. Crue needs to bow out, or get someone to sing. Leppard is doing their thing. Joe sounds like he has for 25 years, and the band is tight. But Poison is just fantastic.
And Tommy needs to come clean about his supposed 4 broken ribs. It’s not physically possible for him to play any songs like that without wincing. He is a childish liar and it’s disappointing to the whole Crue. I’m sure Sixx is real happy about it uhhhh
I was at the show in St. Louis, MO and there's a reason why people in the UK are begging for this line up to come there. Why ? It's a rock n' rollin' line up of fantastic bands. 👍💥
Considering everything that has happened to these guys- drugs, alcohol, cancer and other hardships, it is just awesome that they are still doing great! Hats off to you!
Thanks for posting! Poison was always my least favorite band in the 80's but I always respected their live show. Ricky Rocket graduated two years before me. I miss the 80's and my hair lol
I wish Poison would come to the uk seen lots of bands in the uk only band left I really want to see they were definitely the best out of this tour they are amazing can’t believe how long c c s hair has grown he looks amazing they all do x
Bon Jovi can't sing anymore.. Axl Rose and Vince Neil are seriously struggling.. but Bret Michaels still got it. I would buy tix to see Poison in a heartbeat.
Tara Gosselin 0 seconds ago CC Deville you rock my world 😎💓you are such a personable kind soul. I think you are very Hansome, hot & sexiest man alive ❣BTW I am NOT so crazy fan, just a country gal & single businesswoman. Your guitar paying is so incredible with very unique qualities, love it!
Man, say what you want about Poison, but I saw them three tomes in the 80s (well, once was technically int he 90s) and yeah, they're older, but they're still putting on the same show with as much energy and sense of fun as they did back them. Good for them, you know? They're doing what they want and making people happy. (also I'm pretty sure CC has spent the intervening years practicing, or maybe just laying off the coke)
CC has more potential than he has shown in the past. He's the worst improviser to ever pick up guitar so it's nice to see him sticking to the album version of the solos...more or less...
If you've seen one Poison concert you've seen them all. Seriously. Brett Michaels has never evolved. Name me another lead singer that wears his merch. Brett is one big phoney. Hey..when did Cousin It become the guitarist?
Bret is the ultimate panderer. Trust us. At EVERY show he will inevitably say, "I gotta tell ya, this is the biggest show and best audience we've ever played for!!!" Phony 🤮
Having been a professional musician for 35 years, here's another eye opener for you. You know that song you requested, that the band, or even the radio, played because you requested it? Well, that was already on the 'requests' song list, and was going to be played anyway! 😱
poison is finished, go out with pride, announce a last tour. were tired of the same old music year after year, you prob didn't even write your albums, cause richie kotzen was the only last good music of poison. this band has been stale for 30 years.
I think Poison, Motley Crue and Def Leppard sound like shit when compared to how they were in the 1980s and 1990s. Old age kicked their asses. But with Pat Benatar she and her husband Neil Giraldo they hold their own to how they played in the 1980s and 1990s. They may not move around like they did in the 1980s, especially Neil Giraldo because he was an animal live in the 1980s and 1990s on stage but atleast they sound very close to how they did back then. Probably to why they still sound good is that they took care of themselves much better plus they know that they are old so they stay more stationary at their older age so they don't get winded or out of breath. These guys in Hershey, especially the vocalists move around too much at their older age and sound winded or out of breath and terrible for their vocals. Not on Pat's level or not as smart as Pat in old age ruclips.net/video/w1tJ9d3D6Wo/видео.html
WTH!! Who Cares! That may be, but Pat Benatar was not a performer at this concert!!! Joan Jett and the Blackhearts were the opening act, and they were Fabulous and Joan sounded great!! Brett Michaels had soo much energy and really got the crowd going in Philly!! I was there, but were you at any of their concerts? I LOVE Def Leppard and thought they still sounded great!! Motley Crue though, not sooo much....."Vince's"vocals were horrible and hardly audible, and Tommy Lee used the F-Bomb every other word when he spoke! Motley Crue was the big let down, nobody else. These guys are all in their 60's though, or pretty close. It takes a lot to do what they do every day. Maybe you could do better??

Amazing that in the early 80’s these guys were playing at the Metron and putting on their own shows at skating rinks, and not a lot of people liked them. so they said forget this…..packed up and moved to CA.

Stuff of legends.
Anytime I can see them I so will be!!! Gonna suck when they have their last ever tour
💚😁🤘
DAMN YINZERS!!!!!! 🛼😝😝😝

Brett talking to the Hershey crowd almost brings tears to my eyes because you can see how much it means to him and the boys to be back in Central PA😎❤❤🤟🏻🤟🏻💯💯💯😊😊
Poison should have been the headliner of this tour. I'm very impressed.
When the bass player brings that much energy it's going to be a hell of a show
Poisons energy and live performances is what made them big and deciphered them from the rest of all the other hair bands. The Crue was just insane
Thank you for posting this. Saw this concert in Jacksonville a couple weeks ago.

FACTS! 😎🤟🏻🤟🏻💯💯💯💯💯
Agreed 100% he looks fantastic they sound great he such an amazing front man gets the party started
These guys are just getting better and better as the tour goes long. True rockers.

It's the only type of rock and roll music era I listen too
❤Brett’s energy on stage💯💯💯🤟🏻🤟🏻He still sounds really good as does the entire band😎As a Pennsylvania resident, I am happy to see them return to Hershey! Wish I could’ve been there. Thanks for the great footage Jim!
Man love the energi poison bring they seem like the best band on the tour
We were there on Tuesday! Bret was so pumped to be home that it showed in everything he did. Great concert and I've never seen the stadium so packed!
I don’t even like Poison but I must admit they look good here and Bret has a smile on his face and is enthusiastic.

POISON is stealing this tour. Leppardno energy, Crue has Vince 😬. Joan's set into short.
Yup! Doesn’t matter what band is playing in the video it seems all the comments are about poison owning this tour.
Really developing a fondness for these guys watching these videos. Total professionals.
I knew they would steal the show on this tour. Good job boys.
REALLY Good Videography; I can really Feel the Energy & I've drunk the magic waters & have been transported back to the late 1980's😍🤩Mahalo!
Thank you so much. Brought tears to my eyes
Two things I didnt know prior to watching this... Poison seems like a super fun band to watch live.... and the singer likes to point...

I was never a fan of Poison but ya gotta admit...These guys are having a blast up there. Good on them.
Poison is the best. Like actually the best! Not just PA best
I am seeing these guys a week from today! I can't wait😁😁😁
Been a Poison fan since jump street. Say what you want, them boys bring it 🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻
Lord Bret, you're sounding so good and look great as well as Poison rock on Bret ❤️🌹💙
I was at the show in St. Louis, MO and there's a reason why people in the UK are begging for this line up to come there. Why ? It's a rock n' rollin' line up of fantastic bands. 👍💥
The band sounds great and Bret still has the voice. Awesome job fellas 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Should have headlined this tour. My Lord, they are awesome!!!
Looks like they are having so much fun!! They never fail to put on an excellent show!!
Saw them twice they never disappoint live
Great Performance, overall C.C. kicks ass
Considering everything that has happened to these guys- drugs, alcohol, cancer and other hardships, it is just awesome that they are still doing great! Hats off to you!
Drink every time time Bret says “central Pennsylvania” 😂
Thanks for posting! Poison was always my least favorite band in the 80's but I always respected their live show. Ricky Rocket graduated two years before me. I miss the 80's and my hair lol
Thank you for the video,felt like i was there.💞bret you look great and sound awesome💓💓🙀
Cool stuff brother 😎👊🏼 Thanks for sharing Jim!
Poison was great
Seen these guys,in Cleveland ,Ohio. Richfield Col. On their first album. Rocked then,and still rocking now!!! Rock on boys!!!
Nice video and good Audio!! Thanks for sharing.
They are killing it this year!
great video.... I recently saw the stadium tour also… I had good seats ...but you had great seats 🤘🤘
CC DEVILLE IS A GUITAR GOD!!!!!! POISON IS BACK!!!!!!
Estos tios esta enteros, buen grupo de rock metal , destaco su sentido optimista en varios de sus temas.
Poison is so cool!!!
I wish Poison would come to the uk seen lots of bands in the uk only band left I really want to see they were definitely the best out of this tour they are amazing can’t believe how long c c s hair has grown he looks amazing they all do x
Agreed! They need to tour the UK ASAP!
They're killing it 🤘
Can’t wait to see them in Pittsburgh Friday !! 🤘🏻
By the end of the set Bret smiled and pointed at every person there
Was a good time.......!!!.....
VERY good time🤘🏽🔥
These dudes were on the second issue "RICHOCHET". I'm glad to know miles away( L. A. ) brewed some hard-working wannabe rockers like me!!!
woww... Bret looks like very happy and enjoy perform on stage...
Best time ever🤘🏽💞🤩
All were good but Poison brought it!
Was there they sounded awesome 😎
Bon Jovi can't sing anymore.. Axl Rose and Vince Neil are seriously struggling.. but Bret Michaels still got it. I would buy tix to see Poison in a heartbeat.
They killed it in Philly too!
Yup I was front row!
A Reformed Cinderella/Poison Twin Bill would be quite the PA Experience!🤔😘
Brett Michaels actually gives a crap about the people that pay to see him perform 🎭 compare this to Vince Neil's pathetic efforts, chalk and cheese 🧀
Love❤❤❤
Bret still cool and energic
Hometown boys

CC Deville you rock my world 😎💓you are such a personable kind soul. I think you are very Hansome, hot & sexiest man alive ❣BTW I am NOT so crazy fan, just a country gal & single businesswoman. Your guitar paying is so incredible with very unique qualities, love it!

Nice ✌ 👌 👍 ❤
Vince is such a great guy 😀
COMPONGAN NUEVAS CANCIONES ...
I think Cinderella would've fit this tour a bit better than Joan Jett. Poison is just stealing the whole show night after night!
Every time Bret points at someone you have to take a drink…..
Like Brett but why does he refer to Poison in the third person? Great energy and execution…connects with the crowd well
Does Brett's bandana get an equal share of the gate for each performance????
Why is Bret announcing their introduction??? Can’t they find anyone else?
The Motley Crue? The Def Leppard?
Lol I wondered that too ....
CC looks cool as hell. What's that fleshy thing on Bret's arm?
continuous glucose monitor (CGM) for his diabetes. alerts somebody if his blood sugar goes too high/low while he's onstage.
Poison is carrying this tour. Too bad the other bands are succumbing to old age.
🤘😆🤘
😢.
Their set lists are always the same
Bret Michaels kicks ass
Singer looks like he stuck a microphone down the front of his pants.
Maybe poison should be closing instead of motley?brett sounds and looks better than Vince
Omg another ww2 movie. Can’t wait.
Blood glucose monitor oh his arm?
Freestyle Libre2 sensor on left arm, with a band aid over it to hold on during sweating
I was on the floor with my fiance
CC has more potential than he has shown in the past. He's the worst improviser to ever pick up guitar so it's nice to see him sticking to the album version of the solos...more or less...
Ditch the harmonica solo please
Is that a pimple on his arm?
He's a diabetic and that's his blood glucose monitor.
It's a CGM sensor dude
Motley Crue copycats
If you've seen one Poison concert you've seen them all. Seriously. Brett Michaels has never evolved. Name me another lead singer that wears his merch. Brett is one big phoney.
Hey..when did Cousin It become the guitarist?

You're going to be so disappointed with your life.
She must be a Pearl Jam fan.
LMAO. What band DOESNT do that.... 😳
