Default Why doesn't Bon Jovi visit in Scandinavia

Have you any ideas why doesn't Jovi come to Scandinavia, perhaps to Finland. I'm sure that there would be enough fans to fill a stadium.... I don't get it. And at the same time when Finland is passed on the tour, Jovi has several gigs in Germany and England...
How do they decide where to go play in tour?

It's too expensive to do just one show, unless it's a stadium. And Bon Jovi can't sell a stadium in Finland. And in Sweden the audience just sucks, which Jon has stated many times. And they've never played Norway.

So, if the promoters could afford it, I'm sure Bon Jovi would love to play Finland, but there just aren't enough people here that would go see them to cover the costs.

They wanted to come to Sweden this year but they were offered a to small fee.

And the crowd in Sweden don't s'ck... Just watch Iron Maiden at Ullevi from last year and you'll see (hear) what I mean.

Bon Jovi audience and Iron Maiden audience, two different things. Ice (probably) didnīt mean audience in general, just audience @ BJ concert.
