At the end of the day, there is nothing like the real thing. I've seen my share of bands that had their singers replaced such as Journey, Skid Row, and many more.

Whoever made the song a hit, owns the song and is the one you want to see performing it live no matter what. Some could argue that the guy from Journey is better than Steve Perry now and the singer from Skid Row is better than Bach now but at the end of the day, they are just B rated band members trying to copy the original the best they could.

BOUNCE is the same. Every time someone calls out a fault, someone who is a fan tries to justify it by saying that they are original or not trying to copy Bon Jovi. Bullshit! From what I've seen, they are trying to copy Jon and band to a T.

If your thing is "it being all about the music", then maybe this cover band is for you. The reality is, it's not all about the music, it never was for Bon Jovi, and it never was from the beginning with Elvis. Music takes on an image and personality with the artist.

This guy from BOUNCE is a good singer and would be fun to see live for a cheap 10 dollar ticket. No way could he ever replace Jon on any level. Even vocally. It's Jon's voice I want to hear. Not some foreign dude with a bad accent.
