Default Big and Rich to Open for Bon Jovi in '08.......
...at least according to one country radio station in Pheonix.

Obviously it's not offical but I suppose it's very possible given their collaboration and the fact that Jon seems to think the sun shines out of their arses.

Cool! They put on a good show. Even the amount of ridiculous spectacle in their show doesn't conceal that they're actually quite decent singers/songwriters/musicians.

I'm not really a big fan of theirs, so I don't know this, but aren't they big enough in the US to headline?

Default no
they wouldn't get stuff thrown at them in the uk!!!

I've been a rock metal fan since 1986 but I love Big and Rich - what they do and how they do it is really no different than aerosmith, bon jovi etc.

They play damn good music, a lot of it very rocky and put on a spectacle of a show - the uk would love it.

They were top bill when I saw them in 2005. They may have been co-headlining with Gretchen Wilson. The show advertisement made it seem like GW was the headliner. I wanted to go see B&R and then leave, but GW came on first. I had to sit through her set to see them, which I was not too happy about.

Interesting. It may however, see them being brought out again for We Got It Going On, and we'll be subjected to the whole "and now a word from my country cousin" bit before the solo!

I think Big and Rich will put on a good show. You know they'll come out for We Got It Going On. That'll be interesting.
