Default Grade Bon Jovi as a rock band

Hard question.

How would you grade Bon Jovi as a rock band?

Give them a grade based on their 20-year career (out of 100).

Comments are welcome.

It was between an A and a B+ for me, purely because they made the transittion from the 80s to the 90s unlike a lot of bands, and they have made some quality records/songs in their career.

I graded, A

Some healthy competition.

I'm especially interested in the results for this one.

Considering that their career spans 20 years, 100 million albums and sold out concerts, I gave them an A. There haven't been any dramatic lineup changes, which is rare considering how long Bon Jovi has been around. They continue to play to sold out audiences all over the world. They have the ability to do their own things and still come together as a band.

I don't really think I can vote on this poll... yeah, they're a rock band, but their music is pretty versatile. They are good at lots of different styles. But when it comes to rock... A, I guess
