They've still got it: Bon Jovi rocks Charlotte
By TONYA JAMESON
After not touring the United States for five years, Bon Jovi proved that it was far from a nostalgia band as it kicked off a national tour at Independence Arena Friday night.
The band played with the hunger of a new act, not a veteran rock band content to collect a paycheck.
"It's been like five years. A lot happens in five years," lead singer Jon Bon Jovi told the sold-out crowd in the approximately 10,000-seat arena. "You guys have been stuck listening to boy bands on the radio. We've got a band-band tonight baby."
He was right.
