I think well done Seb and everyone who has kicked off about it. They have taken the piss and are now getting bad press for it.
As far as I have seen they (BJ, Jon, Backstage) didnt respond to what we were saying and this is the result. I cant remember any other time where BJ have been talked about in the media like this. ( other than bad album reviews )

Its a shame but it is deserved

The article is in the actual sun paper today too on the music gossip page.

The guy who writes the column refered to Jon as Jon Nob Jovi lol and said the band looked like some washed out rock stars on the X factor.

The thing I don't get is, why are London's tickets so expensive? Tickets in the US are very reasonable. They start out at $36.50. Granted, there are seats for $150, but all major groups charge that, if not more.

It's very odd.

er, what? Is that a joke? Is that some kind of VIP experience yuss? And let me guess tickets at the front are only available as VIP experiences?

I didn't realise it was this bad, I looked TM and was asked for £65 for a seat a mile away and thought bugger this, didn't even bother looking at other prices, considering I paid about £50 last year at Soton as was about 6 foot away from the band!

Bit harsh, why do Jovi haters persist on getting their crap across? Let me guess he likes U2?

Cheers for telling me, I was wondering if it would be an online feature only. Great to see it being published as well.

Salaam Aleikum,

Holy crap - If the price is correct (45 to 200 pounds), that's literally double the price of the US shows. That equals around $75 to $330. I don't blame you guys for being pissed. The 1300 pounds thing ($2,100 us dollars) is just laughable.
