If Bon Jovi were starting today- would they be a success?

the eminem shows only been around for a coupla years.

if EMI are dropping 20% of their roster (news yesterday) then I think it's just going to get harder and harder for new bands to come through and bon jovi would not be one of them.

there's still alot more that goes into getting signed than being good and looking good.

only a fraction of total album sales are made in "back catalogue" sales, so 'The Eminem Show's' sales won't change drastically.

They would not stand a chance cos they are not a rap or boyband,they wouldn't get a record deal and get no radio or MTV airplay. The kids these days don't want to hear a band that really sings and plays they want to hear J-Lo junk!

Even The Stones wouldn't make it big these days.


Sad but true.
