Rikki Rockett recently spoke with Eddie Trunk on SiriusXM’s Trunk Nation. During the conversation, he reveals if Poison will tour in 2026 and talks about upcoming Rockett Mafia shows.
SiriusXM’s Trunk Nation, hosted by Eddie Trunk, airs daily at 3 PM ET on SiriusXM’s Faction Talk.
Rockett on a possible Poison tour in 2026:
“We are planning, you know, we got a great offer. And to be honest with you, it’s in Bret’s [Michaels, lead singer] lap right now, honestly. So, we’re good to go and hopefully we can make a deal and do it. I think it would be a shame not to do it because this is our 40th anniversary, you know, all original members. I mean, we’re not getting any younger. I say we can tear it up. We still got it. Let’s do it. That’s how I feel about it.”
On upcoming Rockett Mafia shows:
“So I’ve been with the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride. I’ve been a city co-host for the past three years now, and I’ve been doing the ride like eight years. And what the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride is, it’s a ride that happens in major cities around the world all at once. Basically there’s like 121 countries, a thousand cities, there’s like 500,000 riders, and it’s all riding for the Movember Foundation, which is to help find a cure for prostate cancer and also men’s mental health and suicide prevention. So I’ve been involved in that for a long time. A lot of men don’t wanna talk about things that upset them. And so the suicide rate is going up for men really. So they’re very heavily involved in that. And I’m of course with the Los Angeles group, and we do our best to raise money. So this year we decided to do a fundraiser two days before the event.
“So it’s Friday, we do the ride Sunday, but Friday at the Ovation in Hollywood, we’re doing a fundraiser. It’s an all-day thing. There’s a bike show and food and prizes and all kinds of fun stuff. And then at seven o’clock we take the stage and we have an addition to the band this time around. And it’s Stefan Adika is gonna play bass. I’ve known him forever and I pulled him out of his podcast to come out and do this show with us. So I think it’s gonna be pretty cool ’cause Bryan, can’t make it. He’s back east right now. His dad’s having some issues. He’s been struggling. So there’s that.
“And then we have like several other shows. Like July is a busy month for us. On the second we’re at Warner Vineyards in Michigan. Then we do Summerfest with Sebastian Bach on the third. Yeah, Milwaukee. And then we’re at Jergels near Pittsburgh on the ninth. We’re at Picktown Palooza, which I’ve never done and always wanted to do that one. That’s in Pickering, Ohio. And that’s on the 10th. And then hometown, Harrisburg on the 11th. And then we’re back doing the Arcada Theater with LA Guns. And then on the 1st of November we’re playing with Blue Öyster Cult in Anaheim. So we got a few, few fun things coming up. And we’re working on some other stuff too.”
