Default after green day jovi have a lot to live up to . . . .

been on holiday for a week and during that time went to the o2 to see green day with my other half who is a massive fan, and i gotta to say i don't own a single record or care much for them but wow they were amazing and put on such a high energy show. the tickets were cheaper than jovi's as well.

have seen jovi four times and that includes hyde park and them closing wembley and green day almost matched the high points of those concerts.
just hope when roles are reversed and my other half has to come and see one of my favourite bands next june that they can live up to green day.

Aloha !

Bon Jovi have a lot to live up to compared to many other bands, especially compared to their ticket prices.

Salaam Aleikum,

have a great time!!!! as i say i was aware of them and some of their bigger hits but was not aware just how much on stage energy they would have and how much fun they would share with their fans. i won't spoil the surprises for you but unless they were just going for it cos it was an o2gig then you are in for quite a night.

It's right to have an opinion, but to just say that with nothng to back yourself up is garbage. You may not like their music, but go to a live show and then tell me they suck.

The show I saw in las vegas is tied for the best concert I have ever seen.

I saw Green Day back in 2005 at Rock am Ring Festival and they were amazing. I am not their biggest fan, but the sheer energy of their performance is amazing.
I'm going to see them again on December 18th and 19th over here in Auckland, NZ. At roughly 50 € for a GA ticket, they're great value for money.

Maybe the ticket prices but the live show is pretty much incomparable. Green Day do look pretty good live though.

Totally agree.... Saw Green Day at MK Bowl in 2006 (I think), when they filmed Bullet for a Bible and they completely blew me away.
Completely changed my expectations of what a live gig should be.

After listening to The Circle, I don't think there's a song on there which really has the potential to transfer to a live show.
