POISON Frontman To Appear On 'Inside Edition'
April 9, 2006Bret Michaels of POISON will appear on the next "Inside Edition" (described as television's longest-running, top-rated and most-honored syndicated newsmagazine) to talk about the recent attempts on his life. The frontman has endured death threats, had his dog poisoned, and was shot at twice — in Massachusetts and Los Angeles.
Back in November in Massachusetts, someone fired a weapon at Michaels that shattered a window on his tour bus, and a similar thing happened two weeks ago, when a window in his car was shot out while he was driving in Los Angeles. Michaels told Launch Radio Networks that he hopes anyone with information on what's happening will come forward. "I'd like to believe it's random, but it's getting pretty scary at this point," he said. "And I'm not a fearful person of much of anything — meaning I'm not a person that lays down and says, 'That's it. I'm not doing nothing.'But at the same time, this is also my family, my daughters — there's a lot of other people involved — so anything that would lead to any information would be very helpful."
Michaels has no idea who's behind either shooting incident, but he told Launch that there's one person who's been under scrutiny for quite a while. "The FBI's been investigating a guy by the name of Mark Kram," he said. "We cannot figure out who this is, because obviously it's his name spelled forward and backwards. They've been investigating that since the early '90s. And we've gotten so many death threats, and they've become weirder and stranger over time, so it's pretty scary."
If anyone has any information, Michaels asks that you send it in through his website, BretMichaels.com.
POISON released a new greatest-hits set last week called "The Best Of Poison: 20 Years of Rock", which includes their cover version of GRAND FUNK RAILROAD's "We're An American Band". They'll join up with CINDERELLA for the "20 Years Of Rock" tour from June 13 to August 25.
