Even if he really doesn't know about the prices - doesn't make it any better.
It just shows he doesn't care about the prices and the fans.
There are artists who care and take action on the prices.

Yea, sure... What happend with the 0.5£ coffe? What happend with the oil prices? What happend, what happend... Nothing, we are living in the capitalism. So, prices go up every year, salary allso goes up, but in the end you have the same amount of money as you did 20 years ago. You just have a feeling of better life now becaouse technology moves forward, but that cant last forewer when the society spends so much money on other stupit things.

And apart from that you can often tell if someone is lying by judging his facial expressions and body movements (looking down, not looking someone in the eye, doing other things etcetera).

I'm also sure many people would like to think they can tell what is going on in Jons mind simply because they relate to him or his music and feel a 'connection'. It would be interesting to get a body language reading expert to view the clip. I'm certainly not saying he's telling the truth but I think I'll try and keep an open mind about the whole thing.

You don't need a body language expert on this. It's not like Jon is acting or anything. Just because you try to keep an open mind doesn't mean that it's too obvious for others. It's as simple as Jim Bon Jovi just said.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

This is completely inaccurate and not the way the world works at all.

All prices and living costs do not increase proportionately. It was emphasised quite clearly in another thread where Jim Bon Jovi told us about what his dad had said about the cost of a concert ticket was way back when in comparison to beer prices. It was something ridiculous like, 'a concert ticket cost the equivalent of 2-3 pints then, whereas now it costs about 85 pints!'

He does know about the ticket prices - it was obvious even without watching the interview. He will also do nothing about them because, at the end of the day, they have sold extremely well despite the backlash. If you want someone to blame, blame the idiots who paid +£200 for floor seats. I'm not apologetic if I've offended anyone on here who may have purchased tickets at those prices either - in fact, I'm offended that you feel the prices are justified. It's just getting ridiculous.

Kudos to them for finally putting him on the spot like that (whether it was pre-arranged or not) but they let him side-step the issue when they could have pressed him over it - that's not the way daytime TV presenters work though is it.

Yeah, he's full of it.

Also, if I hear the guy complain one more time about touring, I'm selling my tickets. No one wants to hear him bitching all the time.

Makeup looks bad, but he looks fitter than he has in years.

Jon on the other hand looks like he's a hundred.

When the guy mentions tickets, I thought I saw Richie give a little nod but maybe I was seeing things.
