And most of them I think would sell out just because JBJ = BJ in many people's eyes. So that's below what the 'band' name draws, but this the level that bands like Kings Of Leon, Maroon 5; so not 'Stones and U2' level, but very respectable.
Yeah Jon could easily fill those larger arena shows himself.

It's getting harder for the band to fill stadiums simply because they overkilled it in the last decade I think. But Jon could easily tour with the Bon Jovi name, no-one can stop him, it's his and his alone. So why wouldn't he?
