If you follow Bret Michaels, you know the guy practically lives on the road. He’s one of those front-men who never seems to slow down, so it definitely gets your attention when he has to hit the brakes.

Bret recently had to cancel a few shows and reached out to fans to explain what was going on. He’s dealing with some health complications and needs to take some time away from the stage to focus on getting better.
And honestly...considering the amount of energy Bret brings every time he’s up there, you can understand why sometimes the body just says, “Alright... we’re taking a break.”
He’s been pretty open about his health over the years, and here’s hoping this is just another bump in the road. Especially with all the talk about Poison possibly getting back together next year...
