Episode overview
The consummate hard rock quartet of Bret Michaels, Bobby Dall, Rikki Rockett and C.C. DeVille get back to basics with acoustic renditions of ""Talk Dirty To Me"" from their first album Look What The Cat Dragged In?, ""Your Mama Don't Dance"" and ""Every Rose Has A Thorn"" from their second release, Open Up And Say ... Ahh! and ""Good Love,"" ""Let It Play"" and ""Unskinny Bop"" off their latest release Flesh and Blood. An excerpt from the MTV Unplugged book...""At the time of this taping, the members of Poison were still wearing makeup and were still among the best-selling MTV artists in the free world. And, despite occasional disagreements with guitarist C.C. DeVille over just what Unplugged really means (witness his semi-electric acoustic guitar). The band's seven-song selection-including 'Talk Dirty To Me' and 'Unskinny Bop'- was a huge hit with their fans."" Set List: Your Mama Don't Dance (written by Kenny Loggns and Jim Messina) Good Love Every Rose Has Its Thorn Let It Play Poor
