Default Bon Jovi very big in South Africa!
I'm hoping that by posting here I'm gathering some support for Bon Jovi to return to South Africa this time round.

Believe me, Bon Jovi are very, very big in South Africa and I don't have an explanation why other South Africans aren't posting here. Not everybody has internet access and it isn't free. Maybe this time round we'll get to share in the "Bounce" world tour.

Sting and Bryan Adams both returned to South Africa on their last tours and we're desperately waiting for Bon Jovi. They've got a very large multicultural following here in SA.

Thanks for hearing me out!
Sanj

Well, Iīm with you on there. I hope they will do a REAL world tour this time and by this I mean that they should go almost everywhere. And I donīt think that the reason for these short tours is the fact that they have families now, even U2 does massive world tours and they have family also. So please, BJ, do a decent tour this time and also come to Finland.

For sure. A lot fo people take it for granted that there are so many Bon Jovi fans from places you may never have heard of. I saw Bon Jovi once in my life, at least I can say that, but it hurts when there's a world tour going on and your country is not there.

I know the band won't do those massive 230 odd shows anymore, but maybe give the lesser - visited countries another chance. They're a global, international band in every sense of the word. If I could, I'd fly to Australia or England or India or Finland to see them perform.

Let's hope this happens. Bryan Adams tours for 2 years at a time because he sees all the countries he can possibly fit in. I'm not saying Bon Jovi do that, because everybody's different and of course Bryan Adams is still a batchelor! But you get my point....

Rock on, Sanj

Yes, I too am on a mission to bring Bon Jovi back to South Africa, Sanjeev! I have a Facebook group I am trying to get going, called0"Lets Bring The Bon Jovi- The Circle Tour to South Africa" and I believe there is a petition you can sign on http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/...th-africa.html. There are many Bon Jovi Fans in SA I think they may be to Shy to admit it. I think the First thing is to get major radio stations like 5fm to play the songs of the new CD, "The Circle", let get Bon Jovi to SA!

Dude, 5fm sucks, these days they only play sh*te on that station, JacarandaFM, and all its brother stations like OranjeFM have been playing Bon Jovi like Motherf*ckers all of these years, and 'We weren't born to follow' is pretty damn popular here. SA loves Bon Jovi, they just shouldn't wait 14 years to come visit us again!!!!!! They're gonna knock our socks off this tour, (and vice versa) I can guarantee you that..XD
