White Lion to open for Poison/Ratt this summer?

 

One thing you’ll just have to accept is that I love ’80s hair metal. The Poison/Ratt summer tour isn’t terribly exciting news as Poison seems to hit outdoor sheds every summer with a different opening band in tow. I caught the Poison/Vince Neil/Skid Row tour a few years ago and got my share of Poison, enough to last me for a few more years. Even the prospect of seeing Ratt with a majority of it’s original members doesn’t really do much for me. But then MetalSludge.com reported this week that White Lion will be added to the bill and all of a sudden my interest level shot through the roof. The reality is that of the 4 guys in the White Lion picture above, only one of them (Mike Tramp, singer) is still in the band so it’s a good possibility that the White Lion on this tour is really nothing more than Mike Tramp backed by a bunch of nobodies playing White Lion’s greatest hits. But, I’d still like to see that as I only saw White Lion once or twice “back in the day”.

 

“Wait …. Wait … I never had a chance to love you ….”

One thought on “White Lion to open for Poison/Ratt this summer?”

  1. I totally agree! Saw Poison last summer with Cinderella. It was fine. But am very excited at the prospect of seeing Mike Tramp perform after all of these years. Never made it back in the day…
