BON JOVI ANNOUNCE CLUB DATE IN JAPAN

This press release just went out in Japan and was announced over Japanese radio!!!

ONE NIGHT ONLY EXCLUSIVE PERFORMANCE, LIVE NATIONWIDE BY SATELLITE? BON JOVI MTV NATIONWIDE LIVE!! completely exclusive on Zepp Tokyo! Fans are important to Bon Jovi and they very much value the bond between the band and the fans.

Even though the band has become one of the top performers worldwide, Bon Jovi has never forgotten to show their gratitude to their fans. As one of the top successful rock bands, BON JOVI regularly hold concerts at stadium sized halls. But the band wanted to do something special for their Japanese fans. The band thought, when we release our new album, we want to perform at a small club as a thank you to our loyal Japanese fans. The band and the management overcame many difficulties and made a dream come true! September 11th, 2002 19:00 Zepp Tokyo Bon Jovi's plan comes together! performing at a club for the first time in Japan!! Tickets for this special night will NOT BE ON SALE 100% of the attendees will be there by invitation. Tickets will be a gift from the band. The audience will be chosen by drawing from those who have pre-ordered a copy of the new album BOUNCE, those who win the MTV NATIONWIDE LIVE invitation contest, and those who win drawings held by various media nationwide. In addition, to accommodate the overwhelming response of fans who could not make it to the Tokyo show, the concert will also be beamed via satellite to venues in Sapporo, Sendai, Nagoya, Osaka and Fukuoka!!! For those who can not make it to any of the venues...Bon Jovi has requested a full back up plan from MTV JAPAN. Seeing how the band is determined to carry out this special live performance, MTV JAPAN will give full support. MTV JAPAN will cover the whole event and the footage will be broadcast on later dates. (dates will be announced soon)
