Default Announcing Special Guest: The J. Geils Band at Select Stadium Shows
Quote:
Bon Jovi has just announced that Boston based rockers The J. Geils Band will join them as the special guest at select stadium concerts this summer...

The J. Geils Band will perform at the following shows:
7/12/13 - Foxboro, MA - Gillette Stadium
7/18/13 - Detroit, MI - Ford Field
7/12/13 - Chicago, IL - Soldier Field

More

J. Giles? He's not dead? Apparently, he's been restoring old cars and filing lawsuits. According to Wikipedia, their most recent album was in 1984, and they did a short tour last fall minus J. Giles -- thus, the lawsuit! The J. Giles band without J. Giles opening for Bon Jovi without Richie -- hot ticket!

Yeah but Bon Jovi is not a nostalgia act, so having J. Geils would be nostalgia, hence the J. Geils band without the man himself.

That said, I have loved the J. Geils band recent output so I can't complain.

Oh, I know this one. I'm sure they've done a lot more, but to us over here they are a one hit wonder...

Yeah this is all pretty confusing. Someone owes someone a big favor.

No disrespect intended toward them, but I can't image them bringing much of crowd for as much as Bon Jovi charges for a ticket.

They're popular in Boston. They opened for Aerosmith recently.

Lmao This is exactly what was going through my mind when I read this.

It screams nostalgia... How ironic.
