Poison’s Bret Michaels has cancelled his remaining solo tour dates for 2026 to focus on recovery after undergoing surgery for a kidney stone. The singer, who recently played three shows in the US while experiencing intense pain due to a kidney stone, was rushed to hospital following his final performance in Washington. Doctors performed surgery to remove the stone and place a ureteral stent, but Michaels returned to the stage for a comeback show in Sugar Hill, Georgia, before deciding to cancel all remaining dates. His medical team advised further rest, citing the need for recovery from recent procedures and concerns about summer heat affecting his blood sugar levels. The 2026 'Bret Michaels Live And Amplified' tour included stops in Texas, Ohio, Vancouver, and Minnesota. Michaels expressed gratitude for support during his health challenges and mentioned a biopic titled 'Unbroken: Then, Now and Forever' set for release later this year. He also withdrew from Donald Trump’s Freedom 250 event, citing concerns over the event evolving into a divisive platform.
