Nice theory. Although i can't see them playing any of the big (Glasto, Reading/Leeds, V, Download) festivals in the UK ever.
Although, theres a nice Download shaped gap in thier schedule and no Midlands date. Plus here's a few selected Tweets from Download Festival head honcho Andy Copping:
"I disagree...BON JOVI would be a great headliner...who cares if they were on X Factor? So what..."
"I don't think you could rule Bon Jovi out...both Aerosmith and Def Leppard have headlined, so why not Bon Jovi?"
"You can't argue with those songs...if Def Leppard can headline comfortably then so can Bon Jovi"
It's not going to happen, just pointing it out.
