Default Is this a joke?
When I saw the european tourdates that was the first thing I thought. Is this all we get? What is this? The band might not owe us anything but this feels like an insult (IMO). Where´s Belgium, Scandinavia, Italy, Spain or Portugal? I know there´ll probably be more dates but these are probably for Central Europe. The thing I fear the most is that there will be 0 shows in Scandinavia. This would have been my first tour but now it seems like there will never be a tour for me. I´m mad, I´m sad and I´m disappointed. BUT still I keep my fingers crossed that they would atleast go to Sweden so I could see my first BJ gig.

I'm very sure that they add one or two dates in Finland or Sweden. They always played at least in one of these countries.

I have to agree with you Late. I am really disappointed too.

But they can't! They couldn't do it in 1996, why could they do it now? Also the stadium in Stockholm wasn't sold out in 2001. And the arenas in 2000 were 9 000-10 000 and neither of them was actually sold out I think.

Edit: I don't know why I even replied.

Edit2: Just accept that Finland is a small place too far away. But why don't you think it the other way around. When they don't go to Finland, you have a good excuse to travel to some nice place, have a holiday and see a Bon Jovi show. I don't think I'd ever have gone to Oostende or Nijmegen for example if it wasn't for a Bon Jovi show. And Oostende was actually a really nice place

I knew that you'll gonna throw that 96 to my face. If you remenber in that time Jovi wasn't that popular in anywhere of the world, because they had just few years ago went back together. And because tehy changed style before Keep the Faith former fans was obviously confused and I don't mean just in Finland.
Look at it in this point: In 96 Jovi could hardly fill some stadium in Japan, but few months ago they made a record: Most audience in Japanise leg than any other band any other time. 6 stadium shows, 6 sold out shows!
By the way Bon Jovi has gain more and more popularity in whole wide world as the years have turned.
HAND made history in America: Bon Jovi's most sold album in first week.
So I think things are different than 10 years ago. Now the new found fans have had time to explore thew new music!

Bon Jovi were huge in 1996, also in Finland. After Crossroads' success These Days sold very well in Finland. They were nominated for several categories in MTV Europe Music Awards (edit: that was actually 1995 but still) etc. And Helsinki 1996 was their last show before a break that everyone knew was gonna be long. And the stadium was still half-empty. I was there, I saw it with my own eyes...

Yes, things are different than 10 years ago. HAND didn´t sell shit here. Neither did Bounce. At least These Days went platinum. Surely they would sell out Hjallis Arena, maybe even twice, but seriously doubt that would cover the costs.
