Bret Michaels was taking a couple of days off from his tour at his Scottsdale, Ariz., ranch.

“I flew in because it was (younger daughter) Jorja’s birthday and we had a sleepover,” said the Poison frontman.

Both of Michaels’ daughters celebrate May birthdays. “We were riding dirt bikes and horses and just doing the dad thing,” he said. “It’s a nice break, but if I had to fly commercial, I couldn’t do this.”

Michaels, 49, is the headliner for Mark and Brian’s Bongo At Morongo IV Saturday in Cabazon.
