Legendary singer/songwriter and Poison front man Bret Michaels will take the Palmdale Amphitheater stage tomorrow at 8 p.m. as part of the city of Palmdale Summer Concert Series.

Born in the small town of Butler, Penn., Michaels rose to  fame as the front man of Poison, one of rock’s most iconic and enduring bands, where he helped define the rock-n-roll scene on the Sunset Strip. Their massive success includes selling over 33 million records worldwide and numerous hit singles. Equally as successful, Bret’s solo career has charted its own course with multiple solo albums.

His 2010 album, “Custom Built,” topped the charts, reaching #1 on Billboard’s Hard Rock list.   When this multi-talented performer is not touring he can be found both in front of  and behind the camera as a director, producer and a reality TV superstar. His first foray  into reality TV brought the record-breaking “Rock of Love with Bret Michaels” franchise to  VH1, one of the most successful shows in the network’s history, shattering weekly rating  records during its run.

Through his Life Rocks Foundation, Michaels has helped raise tens of millions of dollars for charity and makes donations to not only diabetes awareness and research, but also to such causes as childhood cancer, wounded warriors, St. Jude Children’s Hospital, PetSmart Charities and more. Having been  diagnosed with Type I diabetes at the age of 6, Michaels said he is devoted to raise awareness of the debilitating disease in hopes of finding a cure. He has partnered with both the American Diabetes Association and the JDRF acting as a spokesperson and sponsor, earning him numerous awards from a variety of organizations including the ADA’s first ever Chairman’s Citation award.

“We’re thrilled to present someone like Bret Michaels who’s not just a phenomenal entertainer, but a true cultural icon,” said Keri Smith, director of Palmdale Recreation and Culture. “This is sure to be one of those very memorable concerts that you don’t want to miss.”

Tickets are available at www.PalmdaleAmphitheater.com. VIP tickets (first-come, first-served) are $40  and general admission (bring your own chair) is $25. Parking is free. Gates open at 6 p.m. with the music beginning at 8 p.m
