I am 55 years old and I have been a Poison fan since my old Army days back in 1986. Saw them twice in ‘88 and ‘89. If you would have told me 35 years ago that I would be watching what are essentially “home movies” of Rikki Rokett and his family, I would have told you that you were crazy. Well, flash forward and here I am doing just that! And thoroughly enjoying them!!! Thanks Rikki, I look forward to more “home movies”! And hopefully a 2023 Poison and Tesla tour! - hint hint 👍🏻
Poison was the best act on the stadium tour. I appreciated the love to the veterans (as I am one) but also engaging with the audience. They put on one heck of a show. Thank you for such an amazing show in AZ!! ❤️
I teared up a little watching this video. Poison is been my favorite band since always. I’m 46 now and I remember that the only way to get information back in the day about your favorite bands was buying magazines in the super market, like metal edge. Is great to see a different perspective, even years after. Thanks Ricky for such an amazing video blog.
My mom died her hair until she passed at 92. She looked like in her 60's so it was awesome on her. You're looking great! Do what you LOVE and Live your own life and enjoy!!
I’m 45 now, and when I was in 5th grade my mom took me to see David Lee Roth with Poison at the Coliseum in Phoenix, Arizona. It was my first concert, and I have been a fan ever since. Thank you for these VLOGs, Rikki.
It’s amazing how down to earth these guys are.. they’re famous and have money, but they’re just like us.. Human… Thanks for all the years of great music!!
From a fans perspective it's nice to see just a normal day in the life of a rock star. Brings back to reality the fact that in so many ways we are all just the same. Some just get the opportunity to live a real dream. Keep up the awesomeness Rikki
Great content as always ! Great show as well . I'd also like to thank the entire Poison band for producing some of the best Rock'n Roll music that narrate my memories for over 30 years, good times as well as the bad . I wish you nothing but the best 😎 !
You told me at the meet and greet in Toronto there would be more content, and BOOM! There is! Robo couldn't have been nicer to us, such a great guy... and you guys treated us like family at the greet, thanks so much! I was the tall guy with the black shirt, told you I loved your TH-cam channels...waiting for my pics to come in from the greet, thanks again Ricky, cheers!
I really dig your videos! You seem to be a very cool, down to earth, guy - and dad. I really do appreciate the behind the scenes look you are giving us all! Thank you so much!!
Loved the video Rikki! Thank u for sharing with all of us! I started graying in my 20s and am in my 40s now. I've always colored it, just haven't got comfortable with the gray just yet.
how awesome !!! so nice of you to share your days with us. I felt like I was walking along with ya. thank you so much !!!! from one drummer , rider to another Rock on and Ride safe !!!
So happy to see Poison Sunday night in Bethlehem PA. You guys rocked and we could tell how much you appreciate your fans. Thank you for an excellent show.
Love it! We all know how old we are, a lil bit of colour is fine...it's the ones that still dye it JET BLACK after the age of 50 that crack me up. Keep the vid's comin' Rikki.
Love seeing you with your kids. I remember doing the walkie talkie thing with my kids too. No childhood is complete without that. 😃 Saw your Phoenix show. You guys are by FAR the most energetic and fun out of all the bands. Thanks for the vlogs!!
Wow! This was awesome! We were at the show and had a great time. Poison was great and left us wanting more, much more! Thanks for putting on such an awesome show ❤
My Aunt Sis back in Harrisburg PA tells me stories of "Lil Rikki" and how she used to watch him some when he was a kid. In the early 90s told me how lil rikki had just bought his mom a new car, I think she said it was a Cadillac, but it was a LONG time ago. GREAT show in PHX last night! Poison was the biggest hit!
Awesome video as always. Thanks so much for always spoiling us fans. I kept my gray hairs. I thought it would make me look old enough to buy a lottery ticket. I always get carded for that lol. I'm 44 and yet people think I'm way younger. It's not a bad thing but can be embarrassing at times. Once our server at Applebee's gave me a coloring book with crayons. I just smiled and said thank you.
I know what you mean . I'm 53 and apparently I look 30'ish . I get carded all the time as well . I just take it as a compliment . I'm just glad I don't look the age I feel . Keep on Rock'n !
Wow, thank you for sharing these logs @The Poison Drummer. It's been a few years since I've seen you live, but saw you this past weekend at SoFi in LA, you guys did an outstanding job, such great positive energy. Love your drumming style .... Rock on! (Really hope you guys do a solo/headliner show soon)
I got to see you on night 2 of Fenway. You guys were amazing. It was my first time seeing you live, and it was amazing to watch a bunch of musicians who were just having so much fun on stage. Thanks for such a memorable evening!
I first heard poison when I was 9, and got my first guitar that Christmas. Just went to the stadium tour in Boston... poison VIP. She loves you guys too. Wish I could post a pic of her with your drumsticks, bandana, and drum set in the background.
It’s so great watching your videos and seeing so many familiar faces. Rob and John (didn’t see Janna this time). I know John was so happy to be able to come out with you guys for a couple of days. It’s good to see him up and around more lately… Be safe out there riding… JM
Long one! But, worth it!
No such thing as to long. Love all the vlogs. Thanks for all the videos.
Love all of your vlogs ❤️ Rock on🤘
Keep them coming!!!! They are Awesome! 🤘🤘🤘🥁🥁🥁
Go totally gray like your fans have. You cant stop getting old.
Like the longer episode and the content, speaking of....who did the synthwave-ish music @ 4:45.
Nice. Keep going with these.
I am 55 years old and I have been a Poison fan since my old Army days back in 1986. Saw them twice in ‘88 and ‘89.

Well, flash forward and here I am doing just that! And thoroughly enjoying them!!!
Thanks Rikki, I look forward to more “home movies”!
And hopefully a 2023 Poison and Tesla tour!

You guys rock. CC Deville is such an under rated gifted guitarist. I rate him in the top 10 best of all time. Thanks for sharing Rikki.

I actually like this video. Realistic representation of a middle-aged man in a rock band spending time with his kids on break
I’m 45 now, and when I was in 5th grade my mom took me to see David Lee Roth with Poison at the Coliseum in Phoenix, Arizona. It was my first concert, and I have been a fan ever since. Thank you for these VLOGs, Rikki.

You finally got CC in the video - LOVE!!!!
It’s amazing how down to earth these guys are.. they’re famous and have money, but they’re just like us.. Human… Thanks for all the years of great music!!
As a contractor I've got to work for several Rock stars and celebrities...they truely are normal people
From a fans perspective it's nice to see just a normal day in the life of a rock star. Brings back to reality the fact that in so many ways we are all just the same. Some just get the opportunity to live a real dream. Keep up the awesomeness Rikki
Very cool! Thanks for sharing. 👍🏼
