March 8, 2006

POISON's cover of GRAND FUNK RAILROAD's "We're An American Band", produced by Don Was (THE ROLLING STONES, BOB DYLAN),has been posted online at www.myspace.com/poison. The song will appear on the band's upcoming 18-track collection, "The Best Of Poison: 20 Years Of Rock", due on April 4 via Capitol/EMI Music Catalog Marketing. The CD, which commemorates POISON's 20th anniversary and the band's career tally of more than 25 million albums and DVDs sold around the world, packs the group's biggest hits and fan favorites. In May, POISON will hit the road for a major 20th anniversary summer tour sponsored by Live Nation! and presented by VH1 Classic.

With the band's most recent studio album, "Hollyweird", along with "Poison Greatest Hits", which just reached double platinum, and their gold-certified "Greatest Video Hits" DVD, POISON continues on with a do-it-yourself attitude, also touring to sold-out venues around the world. Following a 2003 VH1-sponsored tour, POISON embarked on a national tour with KISS in 2004.

POISON's 20th anniversary world tour will take the band to major concert venues around the globe this summer. Tour dates and line-up details will be announced and posted to the band's official web site as they develop.
