- First time for Alexis to hear and react to Nothing but a good time by the glam metal band Poison. Burch also shares one of his photos of the lead singer Bret Michaels and the story behind the image. From the album, Open Up and Say Ahh! The height of glam metal and produced many bands but few were as good of live act or as musically talented as Poison.

I'm not sure why, but for some reason women lime that Bret guy... 🤔
too much pausing.....ruined this.
😁😂 You really won't like the rest of our videos because most of them are even worse than this. @@greggburke3770
I would wear that hat too
@flickeringboxoffical I met poison in 2018 and got a picture with all of them togther poison is hands down the best band of all time I grew up in the 80s I've met bret twice by himself and then with the entire band years later in 2018 there awsome
To everyone not afraid to admit that Poison was their favorite band.1) I love you, 2) we are old.
I'm 66 and they are a favorite band of mine.
My favorite band was always Queensryche. But Poison is in my top 5. They put on a hell of a show and they really are underrated for their skill.
Went as far to see them live in 92
saw them last sept in seattle with motley and def lepard, poison was the most fun , bret sounded awesome and played with the crowd in his hands. def lepard layed down the hammer in closing and were phenominal!@@Darthsinned
@@mattcoffee1269 omg.. that would have been the concert of my dreams.. ive always wanted to tie bret up and bring him home.. and motley and leppard.. 3 of my very faves and i missed it
This type of music needs to make a comeback. So much fun. The world could do with some fun.
@robschultz9677 Oh ok who do you recommend
@Rob Schultz you like Steel panther?
@Rob Schultz ah I get it you are super serious. Parodys and laughing are overrated.
@Rob Schultz I agree Rob. Just need to listen to a band called Crazy Lixx. The definition of the 80's fun rock sound.
@Rob Schultz Nestor and Wildness are brilliant and I agree with that recommendation.
Such a great time to be alive. Party vibes and just having fun. Man I miss the 80s
Me too, everyday of my life as I get older I'm always thinking about the 80s and what good times it was.
Yes same here I really believe that we were blessed to have experienced those days.
That video perfectly embodies the spirit of a Poison concert. And they are still going strong. Best live band ever. Take her to a show asap.
I told her that when they come to town, I would like to go and do a reaction during the concert, live! That would be a blast.
@@flickeringboxofficial Poison isn't expected to tour again until 2025, but Bret Michaels is out solo his summer on a shed tour, with some great supporting acts. Hoping you get a show near you. I'm looking forward to (hopefully) shooting the St. Louis show.
I was a spectator at a "Bret Michaels Concert"' when I visited Michigan from Ontario crossing the border in 2015. I remember they didn't have CC because he was battling a difficult substance abuse issue. Slash & CC were the last 2 left in a competition to be Poison's lead guitarist. Slash went to Guns 'N Roses and CC went to Poison. My favourite songs are "Every Rose Has Its Thorn (1988) & I Won't Forget You (1986)
Poison was the hardest working band of their time. They were awesome in concert and are still rocking today. This type of music totally captures the spirit of the time and it's something that's lacking today....
@subifyouareagainstantifaan3928 There are good artists out there still. TH-cam and other social media platforms have given this young generation a platform, independent of the greed from recording companies. They manage themselves, produce and distribute their music, physically [CDs] and digitally. I am a product of the greatest period of music - the mid 60's to the mid 70's. I am 66, my first concert was 12 days before my 13th birthday in March of 1970, Humble Pie opened for Grand Funk Railroad. Before the year was over. I'd seen Deep Purple, Jefferson Airplane, Mountain, The Grateful Dead, Ten Years After, Black Sabbath, and 10cc. To date I have 193 live shows under my belt. The last 3 being, young talented artist that have honed their craft. I only found them via TH-cam and reactions like this. Blackberry Smoke, Larkin Poe, and Home Free. There are others out their than need our attention, that are just as good and deserving. I call them the "underknown". Groups like The Rainbow Girls, Lukas Nelson and the Promise of the Real, Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats, Brother Dege, Marcus King, Billy Strings, Avi Kaplan, Ali Handal {a cancer survivor like myself that befriended my while I was going through my treatments with numerous emails of encouragement}, Mean Mary, and Chip Taylor & The New Ukrainians {while older, spent most of his life writing hits for others such as "Wild Thing", and dozens of others like "Angel of the Morning"}, just to name a few off the top of my head. My point is, while it's fun to hear blast from the past and see reactions from people that never heard some of these rock, blues, country and folk classics. Someone needs to be the voice for the new and upcoming artists that are still creating great music. One more new recording and touring artist I discovered a few years ago, and you might know his name from his "other job" is Kiefer Sutherland. Yes, that Kiefer, writes nearly all his own stuff too. If anyone wants more of these underknown artist I have found, just holler, be more than happy to share.
CC DEVILLE still gives me chills. His skills are BONKERS
Slash tells a story how he auditioned for Poison and wasn’t feeling it. As he was leaving CC was walking in. I couldn’t imagine glam rock Slash.
I appreciate both bands, although GN'R would be the choice in overall songs.
@@spencergwin9454 absolutely
I wore more makeup than any of the girls I dated in the 80s by far and my hair was bigger, blonder and pinker. I was a punk kid that realized that the girls liked glam so I took all of my styling cues from Rikki Rockett. He never let me down.
My favorite band growing up.the 80s was best decade for pop culture
OMG I remember the 80s and how much fun music was. I graduated High School in 87 and when this song came out I was a big metal head. I had been playing guitar for a few years (classical and jazz) and had started studying music theory in college.
I was a bit ashamed at how much I liked this song. LOL It was such a simple basic song compared to other stuff I was listening to but you can't deny how catchy and fun the song is. I soon got over being ashamed of liking simple catchy pop/rock music. It doesn't have to be complex to be enjoyable.
Just saw them several months ago on the Stadium Tour (with Def Leppard, Motley Crue, and Joan Jett). They are still great live. Sound like they did back in the 80s. Their live show is great and they still act like they are having the times of their lives. And on another note, CC is one of the more under-rated guitarists of the 80's.
Poison was my first ever real concert. They headlined with Britny Foxx and Lita Ford as openers. That night changed my life, it made me a live music nerd for ever. They actually filmed parts of the Every Rose Has It’s Thorn video that night as well. Poison is and always will be in my top 3 bands of all time. Love it. Hope to meet them someday!
This is so me showing my kids the music I grew up with. And how excited I was when they never seen a video or heard a song. Made my day. Truly the best era ever to grow up in.
I've seen Poison about ten times over the years. This song is a perfect example of the experience. I was in the front row at one of those shows and Brett grabbed my hand twice during the show. Always a good time!
Great song, great album, great band, GREAT time!
This band was my favorite band as a teenager. Best concerts as well. So good live.
…and we tried to be up front center stage which for me was September 30th, 1990. Something To Believe In was the song of my fave moment in life. They are still that fun in concert.
She needs to watch it one more time (non stop) to really absorb it. 😀
She will, she was saying that off camera. Once we are done recording, we can go back and listen to the songs we don't know. For me it's the country ones.
My thoughts as well. I nearly pulled out all my hair with the pauses. Lol. 😂 You guys seem super nice though. 🙂
I was in my mid/late teens when Poison hit the music scene. What a great time to be alive. Lot's of hair metal, Aqua-net, and parties. I'm sure today's youth will be able to relate in some way, but the 80's were like nothing I've ever seen. Great video and reaction. Thanks for sharing.
I was finally able at the age of 56 see my first concert, Poison was there and they were awesome Stadium Tour 2022 !!
That is awesome Joseph! Poison still puts on a great show. Do you have plans for another?
@@flickeringboxofficial Nothing lined up as of yet but my brother and I keep an eye open for events we like to see
@@flickeringboxofficial if there is a show in the Orlando area I’m gonna make it, did I mention the venue at the Stadium Tour was Classless Act - Joan Jett and the Blackhearts - Poison- Motley Crue and finished off with Def Leppard !!.. 3 1/2 to 4 hrs of fantastic Rock ! Though to be honest Vince Neil could have brushed up on the lyrics and done better for the Crue ..but the memories of that Father’s Day in 2022 will be with me forever very awesome
The first concert I went to was Poison and Warrant in 1991, thanks to my big sister for taking me. I was 13 years old and it was awesome.
Poison has too many great songs to mention but Cry tough has an almost magical quality to the guitar sound and the Flesh and Blood album really needs to be heard in it's original entirety to truly be appreciated in my humble opinion.
Back in the 80's many people were first exposed to the music via radio, at least where I come from, and we didn't care what the people looked like as long as the music was good.
Thanks for the reaction! :)
My first was Ratt and Bon Jovi in Madison, Wi back in 1984. 💪
We saw that tour in Houston.
I had the pleasure of seeing Poison play in Orlando as one of the many bands (Motley Crue, Joan Jett and The Blackhearts, Def Leppard) on the Second stop of the “Stadium Tour “..and they were incredible..the best Father’s Day I ever had!
Alexis seems very knowledgeable and very interested in learning , which is awesome to see !!!!
This channel is a breath of fresh air!!! I have been waiting for someone to share and explain to the younger generation the life that we lived during the late 70’s and all of the 80’s. It was all controlled reckless abandon and unharnessed fun. Van Halen and Rush were my introduction to guitar rock, then the 80’s blew up with bands like this. I saw Poison live with Warrant as the opening act. Pure entertainment! Keep up the good work.
Warrant were one of the most underrated bands. I feel sorry for them that the Cherry Pie single defined them, because even the rest of that album (well most of it anyway) is just excellent melodic hard rock. Jani Lane was a fantastic songwriter and vocalist. My wife and I used 'Mr Rainmaker' as the entrance song to our wedding reception.
You both make a great team. Burch i love your style of music. Alexis i love how open you are to listening to something that you probably wouldn't of heard until your awesome channel. Keep it up. CHEERS
These guys blew all the other bands off the stage during the Summer Stadium Tour last summer.
The glam, slam, kings of noise! 🤘🏻
'86-'87 was the real breaking point for video and sound quality in the 80s. Before '86 sound quality was quite different from artist to artist, and most videos still had that '70s bad sci fi budget'. 1987 was a 'massive' year in music and video quality..... and most amazing songs and videos that I remember from that era typically were around that year.
Seen Poison at the Camping World Stadium during the “Stadium Tour”…and Poison still Rocks the house like the old days
Poison has a song called "Party Rock Band" I think it describes them perfectly. Was fortunate enough to see them live four times and they always put on a great show.
Poison has always been one of my favorites. I had the pleasure to see them live in the 90's several times, the early 2000s, and most recently, the stadium tour in Cincinnati. They still brought 100% energy. They truly are all about the fans.
CHEERS 🍻
The 80's we're just crazy fun times!! More freedom then than now, that's for sure.
This was awsome I remember those days and still play them all the time
The 80s were awesome. Best decade in music, in any genre
It was a crazy time, for sure. These guys may not have been the best musicians ever but they all actually played during concerts. And it was “all caps” FUN!! I would love for y’all to do Bad Seamstress Blues / Fallin’ Apart at the Seams.
As someone who grewjup during the 80's I loved all of these bands, great music so much fun. I believe CC was classically trained.
Gen X'er here, from Ohio. It was 1988. Some great times when MTV was still good and the music was still great. I'll be fifty in six months. I wish we could have the 1980's back again! Cheers.
Absolutely Love Poison!! I Met Them Back Then, Great Guys" Especially Bret Michael's!!
My BFF was a singer, lived with CC in Malibu. Joey started the big hair movement, and did all the bands hair, including GnR Welcome to the Jungle.
Are you talking about Joey C Jones?
I watched this video the day and the time that it was released on MTV. Amazing stuff. The 80s were fantastic.
I seen Poison in concert with Slaughter in 1991 in Abilene Tx. My wife was 5 months pregnant with our daughter. Great Show..
I can remember playing this going out the Sneads Ferry gate at Camp Lejeune heading south to Myrtle Beach for the weekend that summer.
Our music is timeless
So glad to see a new view on this era!! Saw Poison last summer in Denver and they were still absolutely rockin' it. They did a great appreciation for our veterans which was really cool. Brett's voice is still solid and CC absolutely ripped it up on guitar. Thanks for the reaction.
Keep sharing with your daughter. NEVER LET THE MUSIC DIE.
They are so fun to see live! C.C. Is so unique and my fave
Poison! :D When I was in hospital (forever!), from a near-fatal motorcycle accident, I had a private room as I was in there so long, and I was allowed my tape player in there ... for weeks I had one tape and it had Poison on one side and Vixen on the other - listening to that over and over kept me sane as I could move my left arm to turn the tape over but other than that I was semi-suspended from the ceiling and couldn't move!
EDIT: On the speaking to the 'working stiff' comment, I always thought Poison were like the Glam Metal version of Blackfoot as they had the similar 'vibe' tho' they couldn't be more different in culture :D I can listen to this song and move straight on to, say, Dry County, without pause.
PHENOMENAL SHOW BAND!!!!!!
A real music video. I watched MTV all the time. Or listened to my stereo and worked. And went to concerts. And trips to Best Buy. To get music. That was my life.
I've met the guys in Poison back during this tour, I had the original album cover before it got edited by the pmrc and I got their autographs on it.
Love Poison! They were such a fun and upbeat band.
This is also one of my favorite band. I still listen to them almost everyday. They were considered a hair band which a lot of people made fun of but a lot of the hair bands were very good band. Bret Michaels actually wrote a lot of great songs. Every Rose Has Its Thorn was probably their most listened to song. I loved every song they put out. Life goes on, Unskinny Bop. Oh and CC on the guitar is insane!!!
Awesome photo. Fun reaction. Thanks guys.
I worked with CC about a year before he joined poison, we actually saw them when we did a show together at the Troubadour in Hollywood….. it was fun to see him and them take off!
Great memory that goes along with what you were saying about Bret being blue collar. Me and my buddy were front row at a general admission show and Bret hooked us up with backstage passes. After the show in the room he comes in and comes right up to us and says "I saw you guys sweating your ass off in the front row,a few years ago that was me at a Motley concert, so I hooked you up. " Great memory, super cool guy.
I just saw them in July and they sound the same! Hair isn’t poofed up as much now. The hair and make up at the time of this video is courtesy of the drummer. He was a hairdresser and cosmetologist. They still make the Aqua Net! 😂 I still use it. You can walk out in a wind storm and it don’t move. Lol!!! I saw them, Joan Jett, Def Leppard, and Mötley Crüe all in one day!!! It was so awesome!!! Def Leppard and Mötley are touring together right now.
Poison was in the Stadium Tour 2022 with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts,Motley Crue and Def Leppard 8 hours of awesome
Brett Michaels was so Energetic and they played wonderfully
I mis the eighties! Great music, great movies, great clothes, we had it all!
This song and crazy nights from kiss definetly descibes the 80s 🤘🤘 thanl you for doin this. Brings me back to my youth
For the first few videos Poison did, they always had their previous single playing on the TV at the start of the video (Cry Tough at the start of Talk Dirty to Me, and Talk Dirty to Me at the Start of the I Want Action, I Want Action at the Start of I wont Forget You) . The Rock N Roll All Night cover was the last song they recorded and released on the Less Than Zero soundtrack.
My band played this just last week at my school reunion. Did a whole night of 80’s. Poison, Motley Crüe, Duran Duran, Loverboy, Alice Cooper, Starship, Cher, Guns n arises, Bon Jovi, Warrant, Def Leppard. Was such a fun night. Great songs.
The first time, as a kid, that I saw the 'Look What The Cat Dragged In' album cover in a CD store, I thought to myself "Oh I thought Poison were male, I didn't realise they were a girl band"!
Funnily enough, about 10 years later I was playing 'Bobby Dall' in a Poison tribute band for a couple of years!!
I teach HS History and one day we had some time in a class and the aid and I talked to the kids about 80's hairbands and ran through as many videos as we would in a hours time and loved to see the kids reactions to the videos and music. Glad to see you spreading the love.
Such a great song and they still put on a great show!!!
Saw them many times since they started touring. Sex, drugs and Rock N Roll.....it was truly "Nothin' But A Good Time". I still live the debauchery of the 80s. And nothing offered today can match the holding power of Aqua Net...in the pink can. And it's still available! Good times....great memories.
I can't explain how much this channel puts a smile on my face.
Poison have always been one of my favorites. I saw them live on the flesh and blood tour around 90 or 91. Was a magical experience
Awesome show
@@flickeringboxofficial and Slaughter was the opener, touring for stick it to ya. Spectacular.
This was when all the world was having "Nothing but a good time". Man, were the 80's fun.
I saw these guys for this tour and it was a spectacular show.
I saw this band play live at Donnington in 1990 ! They were great. Have their first 3 albums. xx
Nice Reaction, Poison has only been to my town once I think. 1989 for Open up and Say Ahh! Began listening to them when they first started getting played on MTV. So many good bands then.
Poison is one of the bands I will see every time they come to Dallas. So fun. Such a blast. Last time I saw them, they opened for Motley Crue... MOTLEY CRUE! First, let me say I deeply love Motley Crue, but Poison was way more energetic. I really don't think Bret stopped jumping their entire set. Just so much fun and when you see them live, for that time you just forget any stress you have and just have a good freaking time.
Saw Poison and Motley Crue at Frederick Fairgrounds in Maryland back in 2011 the shows for both bands was scaled back a little but still awesome all the same!!!
I always loved their song Something To Believe In. Would love to see that reaction.
I remember buying this cassette and playing it in my Sony Walkman. Good times!
Sure .. make me feel old. I remember my brother and I parked in front of the TV for the premier of this video on MTV. Poison is just FUN.
80s hair metal will never die
I love Poison so much. SO MUCH FUN
So glad to lived through it, went to the shows and lived out the lyrics.
seen them warm up for Ratt. They were the best part of the concert
Loved y'alls reaction. Just found y'alls channel. You need to introduce her to Steelheart. "I'll Never Let You Go." Talk about range!!!!!! 80s was the best!!! 🎉🎉🤟😎😎🤟🎉🎉
So funny you mentioned Aqua Net!! I was in a hair band back in the day, too. We evolved into a funk metal band (I was a former funk bassist, so we started incorporating my style into the music, along with the drummer) We got signed to Warner, and promptly shelved as Nirvana came out. But anyway, she mentioned "didn't they suffocate using all that hair spray?" and it made me laugh out loud cause when we started out, our dressing rooms would have a huge, thick cloud hanging from about 6' to the ceiling from all of us going through straight can after can of Aqua Net. It would get pretty bad sometimes depending on the size of the dressing rooms we were in. We opened up for Poison twice when they were up and coming - once in Washington, D.C., and once in Painters Mill, MD. We were right on their heels as we were gaining in popularity. They were all such great guys, and we always had the best times together. I wouldn't wanna go back to livng that lifestyle anymore now, but I'm so thankful that I got to live it out when I was young.
You young kids don't know what fun is the 80's where the bomb best rock-n-roll heavy metal hair bands
Music back then was fun, musically it may not be the best but whi cares, it was fun, the concerts were amazing, we need this again.
I'd love to see Alexis react to Motley Crue - Wildside when Tommy Lee does the 360 on his kit. Her interest in these hair bands is refreshing. Great content, y'all!
Poison, holy cow... that feels like a delorean, takes me back a couple decades ago
Best live song ever. With the crowd going crazy
Hi Burch, I really like your videos, I'm from Mexico, 7 years ago I discovered Hair Metal bands, in my opinion the pinnacle of Rock!! For me it was a rebirth since I had many years since music was not in my life, I really like your videos because you talk about your experiences and how your life was with this music, you are a great person, very decent, your videos make me feel like you are a friend and listening to your anecdotes is something very cool since I don't know to anyone who lived through that time, one day I would love to go to the US to see a concert by a hair metal/glam/hard rock band! regards!!
This band still going all four original members
I was 18 years old and I was a skater girl ❤️ I was Poisoned out and I had posters all over lol 😂 my mom was like oh wow!!! I love this y’all 🔥🔥🧺
Hey Burch, my friend from Ohio , shot many pics of bands from the 80's, Rod Dysinnger,, he has photos from many concerts. Awesome concert pics,
Every rose is my karioke tune i do it all the time love a bit of poison and can i say that the old chap looks like a teacher
I had met Bun E. Carlos before, but this was the 1st band I ever met. I didn't even have a ticket to the show but through the strip club I worked at, I got invited down to a meet n greet before the show around sound check time. This was the early 90s when that wasn't really a thing yet. They were cool. Just a few years ago I was talking to a guy who does Bret's security. Bret had just recently done a tour. He said that after one show they all went through a couple cases of beer and almost 2 bricks of cocaine. He said Bret was keeping the 80s alive. I have no idea if that's true or not but it made me laugh.
We all made fun of them- - but those dudes threw DOWN!!!! I saw them open for the DLR Band on the "Skyscraper" tour at the Philadelphia Spectrum in '88. Pure fun! They ROCKED!!!!!
Open Up and Say Ahh was my first ever concert and it was epic.
Every Rose has its thorn is an epic ballad she'd love.
See the more than once Is incredible always
You guys are great! Loved the reaction to this timeless classic.
I miss the 80’s. decade of decadence. best music best movies. Awesome review :) 🤘🏻
Poison was my son's first concert at 10. They opened for David Lee Roth (solo) and 2 songs in people were leaving Roth's show. Poison had blown the crowd away and DLR couldn't hold onto the energy. From '85 to '91 we saw them 5 times.
You know you have to do "Something to Believe In," especially the alternate lyric version.
