JON BON JOVI in DALLAS - FRIDAY, JUNE 23
(Thursday, June 22, 2006)
SATURN and BON JOVI are teaming up for the HAVE A NICE GIG Contest -- Saturn will be hosting HAVE A NICE GIG Concerts in nine markets. In each market, local bands will compete during a live, free to the public "battle of the bands" -- and the winner of each competition will win the opprortunity to open up for BON JOVI on a corresponding concert date on the JULY run of tour dates coming up. The Grand Prize winner of all these 9 competitions will be chose and added to the bill for the last night of the tour.

The first SATURN "HAVE A NICE GIG" is this FRIDAY, JUNE 23rd at SUNDANCE SQUARE in FORT WORTH, TEXAS. It is slated to begin at 6:00pm -- but you MIGHT want to get their a little earlier. As announced this morning on KIDD KRADDICK's radio show via a live call-in phone interview with JON BON JOVI (who called from his Jersey home)... JON BON JOVI will be attending the event and will be on hand for the pre-concert press conference. So get their early -- and come cheer on the local bands who are competing for the chance to open for Bon Jovi in Florida at the Hard Rock Live on July 10th.
