Bret Michaels is joining NBC's Revolution as Bret Michaels. Yes, that is indeed a thing.

Entertainment Weekly reports Michaels will appear on an upcoming episode as a post-apocalyptic version of himself. How and why he appears remains unknown, and there's no word on which characters he'll come across. But EW says Michaels will indeed perform an acoustic version of "Every Rose Has Its Thorn," so, there's that.

"Bret is truly a great guy," creator Eric Kripke said in a statement. "I'm a huge fan of his music and I'm thrilled he's appearing on Revolution."

Where will the Revolution cameo fall under Michaels' list of recent achievements? I would guess somewhere behind winning Celebrity Apprentice, and just ahead of breaking his nose onstage at the Tony Awards.
