To celebrate Poison’s 25th anniversary as a band, 35 of the rockers’ songs are being compiled onto the two-disc Double Dose Of Poison: Ultimate Hits. The career-spanning collection will be released on May 3.
Poison also are celebrating their anniversary with a tour that will also include Mötley Crüe and the New York Dolls.
"
Between Double Dose of Poison and the 25th anniversary tour, I honestly can't think of a better way to mark this major milestone," Poison frontman
Bret Michaels said in a statement. "
I’m so excited to get back out on the road with the band again to celebrate – and Double Dose is going to be such a must-have collection: All the hits in one place. This is going to be really special for all of the fans – and especially for all of those who have been with us since Day One."
The collection will feature chart hits "Every Rose Has Its Thorn," "Nothin’ But A Good Time" and "Unskinny Bop" along with material running through the group’s most recent studio album, 2007’s Poison’d.
