I think if they play the Scandinavian-type countries it'll be a nice change. This is shaping to be a nice big tour

If it is true I'd like to hope they play more than a England, Germany, Holland "European tour". Don't fancy the UK shows this year as they are typically below standard but would be nice to go to a couple in different countries and make more of a holiday out of it. Or city break rather!
I hope they do a better set list than last nights

I'm pretty sure that if they come to Finland Olympic Stadium will be sold out..... Bruce had 2 sold out concerts here few years ago. There were 90 000 people watching them... And according to Stones seating capacity is only 35 000.... So bring it on I'm there. BTW BJ sold about 25 000 tickets last time they were here and that was year 2000. And I believe there are lot of people who just wanna see a huge band playing on a stadium. It's not that common here.

Back in 2000 they had one of their biggest hits ever to support the tour. They haven't had one of those big hits since It's My Life.

In 2000 Bon Jovi played 2 arenas, in Turku and in Helsinki. And it's not uncommon to see big stars here anymore, we have at least 2 stadium concerts every year + a lot more arena shows.

The stadium won't be sold out. It wasn't 1996, and that's when they were huge. But yes, there are a lot of people in Finland who just go to see a big band every year. They'll get a big crowd if there is only one other big band coming next summer, otherwise not.

Interesting news about Denmark - that one I definitely won't miss!

Let's hope setlist in Finland will be good, I think it'll be special.

I somehow don't think they'll play Wembley, more likely 3-5 nights at the O2.

This means a setlist full of the usual Hits. Which, most people in this board are already tired of.

Let's hope. But don't expect too much.

I sent an email to the head promoter of Speed Promotion and asked about this Bon Jovi thing. He confirmed that there will be a show in Finland next summer.

I consider his words pretty reliable!
