Forget the country thing, let's talk about WORLD thing.....I mean....the world is not only U.S., Canda, Europe and Japan....

Exactly what I was thinking. Although at least Australia gets some occassional tours.

Becky- I appreciate what you had to say, I agreed with most of it. But was kinda hoping we could avoid bashing the boys just once here on Dry County. I know it's tough to do guys... I guess I shoulda been more specific.

Hey gang, I am sure the guys know which markets they are gonna make money in and which ones they are not. I am lucky I live near a major market. I know there are places they skip, but if it's not worth it to go there then I see why they skip it! Common business sense I am sure.

The way Richie enunciates WANTED is a SMALL part of many ways the songs have changed over the years.

Fair point about them singing bad name on TV shows, but it can absolutely not ever be dropped from the set list. Its a real crowd pleaser, unlike Bad medicine and sleep when im dead, which are over long when played live and not half as catchy as bad name.

My only other gripe would be about Jons image. Since Crush it seems like he's trying too hard to preserve his good looks. You could see it in the art work for Bounce, the clothers were all chosen for him, hair and teeth perfect, makeup visible that came accross in all the videos too. The video for Everyday was the abosolute worst. He's a good looking guy of 42, he doesnt need to go overboard, his image at the moment just looks really forced to me.

My biggest peeve, "Oh yeah, you love Bon Jovi cause you find Jon hot" One guy said to me "Their c*** rock!" I'm tired of telling people its the music, that touches me on sooo many levels. I mean the fact that the guys are attractive is a plus But why would people buy CD's if they thought say Jon was attratctive. Thta doesn't make any sense. They would just buy a magazine of him or something. Another pet peeve I have is when I say I like BJ and people(the ones that always listen to hip hop ) say "ohhh, you're a rocker chick" Ihate when people try to pigeon hole you based onyour interests. Plus if I am to be something, I'd rather be a 'rocker' then a 'hiphoper'!!

Default pet peeves

why do ppl seem to think they come to Australia so much??? Apart from the past 2 (short) shows we hadent had them on our shores for 10 years!
Now we will have to wait probably another 10 years to see them again.
So thats what really annoys me, people thinking the band is always here.

wow, I didn't know that. You're right, the way people talk, I figured Australia was a usual stop on their overseas leg. Sorry to hear that!
