After leaving their hometown of Harrisburg, PA, and resettling in L.A., the boys began holding auditions for a fourth member. Guitarist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/artist\/cc-deville-mn0000641342\">C.C. Deville<\/a> got the gig, famously beating out future <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/artist\/guns-n-roses-mn0000540883\">Guns N&#8217; Roses<\/a> bandmate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/artist\/slash-mn0000021009\">Slash<\/a> in the process. With their lineup intact, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/artist\/poison-mn0000355616\">Poison<\/a> embraced a glammy, androgynous image and began playing shows in L.A., becoming masters of self-promotion and D.I.Y. advertising in the process. The hard work won them a contract with Enigma Records in 1986, and they released their first album, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/album\/look-what-the-cat-dragged-in-mw0000191435\">Look What the Cat Dragged In<\/a>, that summer. The record spawned a pair of Top 40 hits, &#8220;Talk Dirty to Me&#8221; and &#8220;I Won&#8217;t Forget You,&#8221; and sold over two-million copies within a year of its release. &#8221; &#8211; All Music<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Speaking with Newsday, POISON frontman Bret Michaels &#8211; who has carved out a successful solo&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_mo_disable_npp":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-73317","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73317","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=73317"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73317\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":73320,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73317\/revisions\/73320"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=73317"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=73317"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/themetalden.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=73317"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
