BON JOVI FOREVER - 2025/26 Tour

It's a shame Jon's voice broke. Check out Bryan Adams, he did some shows in London the last year, playing the classic albums; Reckless, Waking Up The Neighbours and 18 Til I Die... in full.






The guy and his band still sound fantastic.

It's a shame his voice broke but he wouldn't have done these anyway. I remember that at the residency in 2010, hopes were really high for album nights, the voice would've been ready, but he didn't care. And I honestly wouldn't wanna hear the classic four being played by Phil and Shanks.

Just got this.....amazing quality, sound great. I think Adams is one of the best singers out there. He sound the same as 25 years ago.

But... Bon Jovi at their peak vs Bryan Adams at his peak, thats a no-brainer for me. Nothing beats a good 80/90's Bon Jovi gig.

Yeah people are really idolizing and pining for a version of the band that never really existed, voice issues aside.

Bryan Adams also still has Keith Scott at his side! Wild how he managed to keep his guitar player happy without having to ask Mick Jagger how to do that

Not being part of the writing team and strictly his guitar player prolly has a heck of a lot to do with that.

And it's not that Mick and Keith didn't have their differences, too. If you remember the 80s, the Stones were rather split than together. But somehow they managed to keep it together.

This is a complex topic with many factors to consider. Ultimately, it boils down to balancing sound and health.

Where do we draw the line? Jon is certainly not a vocalist in the league of someone like George Michael. However, there are artists like Axl Rose and Vince Neil who are arguably sounding just as rough—or perhaps even worse—than Jon. Based on that comparison alone, Jon could justify continuing to tour.

Then there's the issue of longevity. How healthy is his voice for sustained performance? Can it handle hours of singing each night, multiple days a week?

If Jon utilizes every strategy at his disposal—and I mean every trick in the book—he might be able to pull off a major stadium tour. Bringing Richie back would be a big help, and perhaps Richie, Phil, and Dave could each take a song to give Jon some vocal rest. The band could also carry most of the choruses, allowing Jon to focus on the verses. Pair that with one or two strong opening acts so Jon’s set only needs to last about two hours, and the tour could be a viable possibility.

He'll sound terrible on YouTube but he only needs to sound good enough to fake the live audience.

No, he wouldn't.
He just failed miserably twice. Even with using every trick in the book.
