Bret Michaels is till havin' a good time
Still havin' a good time

The plastic stripper shoes! The silicone! The Aqua Net! Bret Michaels' polyester paramours aren't exactly bring-home-to-Mom material. On his VH1 dating show, Rock of Love, the bandana-clad band leader is seeking a lass to, um, settle down with. It's raunchy enough to make Jenna Jameson blush, and - woo - it makes for good tube. But Michaels' reality TV comeback almost overshadows the reason he's famous. His band, Poison, ruled the radio in the hair metal heyday of the late '80s with songs like Every Rose Has Its Thorn and Nothin' But a Good Time. Michaels comes to Clearwater Friday. If he sings Talk Dirty To Me, it'll feel like a night of good TV. Bret Michaels performs at 8 p.m. Friday at Ruth Eckerd Hall, 1111 McMullen-Booth Road, Clearwater. $32.50-$100. (727) 791-7400.
