In addition to the Def Leppard shows, Poison also have some stand-alone headlining dates planned beginning April 28 in Raleigh, N.C. Others include Charlotte, N.C. on April 29, Huntington, W.V. on May 7, Albany, N.Y. on May 9, Rapid City, S.D. on May 26 and Grand Forks, N.D. on May 27. More dates are in the works, so keep an eye on their tour schedule at this location.
