Default Some info about the 20th anniversary boxset

This is the first concrete information I've heard about the 20th anniversary boxset, so I thought I should share the possible Canadian scoop...

On September 5, The Loop, an entertainment type show on Canadian video station, Muchmoremusic aired a excerpt from an interview Bill Welychka did with Jon, Richie, Dave and Tico. One question referred to next year, the 20th anniversary of the band, and that they would be putting out a boxset to commenorate the date. Jon had the following to say about the content:

"We're putting out a boxset which we're pretty excited about. You know, not just a collection of the masters in a box, but, uhm, a sort of a real hardcore fans look inside as to all the songs that don't make records. We're picking the best of, from everything dating back as far as we have in the vaults, uhm, putting together an incredible B-section, a B-Sides collection, a cover selection, insight to incomplete songs and, you know, like really trying to make it a worthwhile trip. It will be the core of the celebration."

Sounds exciting, eh.

Thanks for the info! I gotta say, the Box Set sounds more and more intrigueing by the day. At first, I wasn't all too happy about the fact that Obie has been made responsible for putting the Box Set together -- after all, the OWN Live album which he (and the band) originally claimed to be "something for the diehards" was really quite a sorry excuse for a live album... But if they will keep their promises this time and target the Box Set at the good ol' die-hards, it might actually turn out to be the coolest thing in the history of Bon Jovi.
