Get Better, Bret Michaels

"Until I'm screaming for more ... lock the cellar door and baby, talk, dirty to me!"

I was so into hair bands back in the '80's and Poison was definitely my favorite band (although the Gunners came in a close second!)

This was, of course, my fave of faves (and no, I wasn't all drippy eyed over "Every Rose Has It's Thorn").

Here's wishing that Bret is better.

"CC pick up that guitar and talk to me!"

In the immediate hours following Bret Michaels' hospitalization for a brain hemorrhage, his fans have been poring over various websites looking for a hopeful update on the Poison frontman's health. Now, encouraging word has leaked that Michaels may be better off than initially feared.

TMZ is reporting that Michaels is "awake, in good spirits and talking" as of Friday evening (April 23). This information comes from Ambre Lake, the season-two winner of Michaels' "Rock of Love" reality show. TMZ reports that Lake has spoken with people close to Bret who say he's "stabilized and conscious."
